Nov 2018

McConnell turns around and suddenly sees Murdoch, who wasn't there a second ago.

"Wem är du?" asks McConnell, who suddenly realizes he can speak Swedish, and feels the occasion warrants it.

"Jag är Döden," says Murdoch, with a lot more credibility than he has been able to muster in the recent past.

*Wem är du? = Who are you?
Jag är Döden = I am death.
