He needs Charlie's death certificate to claim the money, but cannot find one and realizes his only proof is Rose's (Melanie Lynskey) word. Evidence that Charlie may be alive mounts after the royalty money is claimed by an unknown party, and Alan and Evelyn (Holland Taylor) receive threatening messages. Meanwhile, Jenny (Amber Tamblyn) receives a check for $100,000 along with an apology note, and a package addressed to Charlie, containing his whiskey, cigars, and a knife he used when he chased Alan around the house, arrives at the house. Several women from Charlie's past, including Mia (Emmanuelle Vaugier), Chelsea (Jennifer Taylor) and Dolores Pasternak (Missi Pyle), are shown receiving checks and personalized apology letters. Meanwhile, Rose is shown holding a captive in her basement. After the unknown captive escapes, Rose returns to the beach house to inform Alan and Walden (Ashton Kutcher) that Charlie is alive and explains the entire story: While in Paris, Rose caught Charlie in bed with a hooker, a mime, and a goat. When Charlie caught up with her at the train station, she tried to avenge his infidelity by pushing him into the path of an oncoming train; however, the goat ended up taking the fall instead. Rose returned to the United States with Charlie bound and gagged and kept him captive inside her basement until he escaped. After hearing the story, Evelyn and Rose go into hiding, while Walden, who receives a threatening message, decides go to the police with Alan, where they talk to Lieutenant Wagner (Arnold Schwarzenegger). They later return to the house and find life-size cardboard cutouts of themselves wearing nooses. Fearing for his life, Alan calls Judith (Marin Hinkle), Kandi (April Bowlby) and Lyndsey (Courtney Thorne-Smith) to tell each how much they have meant to him. Walden does the same, calling Bridget (Judy Greer) and Zoey (Sophie Winkleman) to apologize for how he behaved with each of them. Each of them feign emotion while being generally dismissive, and Lyndsey is shown in a pawn shop asking for a price for Alan's engagement ring. Jake Harper (Angus T. Jones) drops by and informs Alan and Walden that he left the Army and is now married and living in Japan. He mentions having received a $250,000 check and a note saying "I'm alive," but did not figure out who sent the letter. Jake then gambled with the money in Vegas, yielding $2.5 million in winnings. After Jake leaves, Alan and Walden are contacted by Wagner, who informs them that he has captured Charlie; however, the camera reveals that the man is actually Christian Slater, dressed in clothing similar to Charlie's. Alan, Walden, and Berta, believing that Charlie is in jail, celebrate by relaxing in lounge chairs while smoking Charlie's cigars and drinking his whiskey, when they see a helicopter carrying a grand piano, like the one Charlie used to play, approaching the house. The three ponder if Wagner caught the right man, but quickly brush it off. Charlie, shown only from the back, approaches the beach house and rings the bell, but is killed before anyone answers the door when a falling grand piano crushes him. The camera then pulls back to reveal the series' set and Chuck Lorre, sitting in the director's chair, who says "Winning!" as a grand piano falls on him, as well. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Of Course He's Dead」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
