A being appears to -- well, possibly a pirate. The being says, "I'm the spirit of revenge!" The pirate says, "The what?" The spirit says, "In three days time you get murdered! You can't change that but you can solve the mystery of who'll do it, take out pre-justice on them!" The pirate says, "Prejudice?" The spirit says, "Pretty much the same thing." The pirate says, "But if I take brutal revenge on my killer, how will they be able to kill me?" The spirit says, "That's the trick, isn't it? You can't fuck them up to the point where they can't kill you or it's not prevenge at all. You're just some asshole stabbing a stranger because a ghost told you to." The pirate leans back and says, "Nah, I'm totally that kind of asshole -- who do you need killed?"
