This is some really good writing and dialog. The meticulous detail in the scene in the child's bedroom is especially well done. The slow change to letterbox to distinguish it from the rest of the episode is quite clever.

Vincent H. It was shown in the Rapture that Jesus gave the turd to Roger to power his ship.

[@joshuagross3151]

@@90CJk The execution happens after that episode, so the story is obviously ongoing. In fact, this video is missing a scene or two: Vincent is running for political office and before one of his biggest speeches, consoles the turd - only to be caught by his campaign manager, who immediately sees the turd. The two fight, with the campaign manager winning and killing his employer. However, before he can escape, two secret service agents burst in, confronting the crazed man, who lunges at them in a murderous frenzy. The make swiss cheese put of him, but as he falls dead, the turd rolls under a loveseat, hidden until it's later found by a cleaning woman. Recoiling in wonder, she delivers the turd to a Vatican official, who in turn takes it to several high ranking church officials, including the Pope. They argue how they might return it. The camera then pans to what appears to be an ancient Egyptian tapestry of Roger at the top of a great pyramid.

Yes. The construction worker found the Golden Turd and then went to call his fiancée to give her the news that they wouldn't have to worry about any expenses anymore. However, another man answered when the construction worker called, and his fiancée could be heard telling the unknown man that he shouldn't have answered the phone before it's promptly hung up. This heavily implies that she was cheating on her would-be husband. This new knowledge pushed the construction worker over the brink of depression and, while drinking excessively, he killed himself by intentionally driving onto the tracks in front of an oncoming train.
