Detective Dolly:
So, what's the symbology there?

Paul Smecker:
Symbology? Now that Duffy's relinquished his "King Bonehead" crown, I see we have an heir to the throne! I'm sure the word you were looking for was symbolism. What is the ssss-himbolism there? Let me explain it to you. In Greek and Roman mythology, when you died, you would have to pay the toll to Charon, the boatman who ferried you across to the gates of judgment. This made sure the dead came to atone for what they did during their lives, Detective Dollypoposkallius.

Detective Dolly:
Jesus, you're the first one that ever got that!

Paul Smecker:
Yeah, well, I'm an expert in … nameology!
