0:00.0	This is exactly right.
0:19.0	Hello and welcome to my favorite murder.
0:26.1	The minisode.
0:27.1	This is a special occasion because apparently grandparents' day is a thing.
0:30.3	It's grandparents' day.
0:31.6	Yeah, and it's coming up.
0:32.6	So we're going to just do grandparents stories.
0:34.5	Yeah, I mean, you have them for us to read, so we're going to read them.
0:38.3	You want to go? Sure. Okay, this one's called two stories of the same murder.
0:44.0	Hello, Georgia and Karen, or Karen and Georgia, you are both equal in my eyes.
0:49.1	Thank you. Finally. I have a family story for you that I think you'll very much appreciate. It involves the murder of my great-grandfather in, shall we say, suspicious circumstances. Allow me to take you back to a different era and a different place entirely.

1:28.9	I saw that donkey. Not really. I'm friends with him. My great-grandfather decided that he was going to take care of the donkey and went to go shoot it with his rifle. Sorry. Sorry, everyone.
