[ Jane is hesitant, but... well. She knows her detective. She knows how detectives are. You need to make room for the emotional side of loss, as well as the practical side. ]

So... we should probably have a funeral. For Alec. It doesn't seem right otherwise. Anyone know what religion he practiced? [ She's not even sure if he had one. ] Anyway, just something small, I think. Does that sound okay?

...I've never really planned one before, so I could use some help.

They don't seem to advertise themselves very well.

[watsonyourmind]

I think they want you to go in and see. Then they have you in their clutches.

[deductiongeek]

Isn't that the point of marketing as well?

[watsonyourmind]

Maybe they're smarter than we think, actually. Hmm.

Anyway, I figure if there's anything like that around here, Shirley will know where it is.

[deductiongeek]

Probably! She's a detective, after all.

[watsonyourmind]

Is that a thing with all detectives, or just the ones I know? They tend to be so morbid. And I'm a medical student saying this.

[deductiongeek]

Knowing information like that is useful.

[watsonyourmind]

It's got to be a detective thing.

[ Yep, you've convinced her. ]
