38. I halfway thought he was dead, too
My mom works for a kidney-dialysis unit. If a person doesn't get dialyzed, they're dead in like 4 days. Three hours a day, every other day. The machines have to be kept super-clean to avoid infection.

I figured either the supply chain for the machine would have broken down at some point long enough for a fatal buildup of toxins, or he would have gotten a really nasty infection and died. Quiet burial or incineration, and he just fades away into the mists of history.


I also thought that we might have blown up a meeting or something and unknowingly turned him to chunky salsa with a guided missile. We could have spend decades looking for a guy we blew to smithereens back in 2005 or something.
