About the Cat.

Curie: Where did Alex go when she died?

Dr. H: We don't know.

Curie: Why not?

Dr. H: Well, no one knows what happens, it's one of the great mysteries of life.

Curie: Where do people go after they die?

Dr. H.: No one knows that either.

Curie: Why not?

Dr. H.: Well, as I said, it's one of the mysteries of life. No one who is alive has gone through it, so no one knows.

Curie: The people at Kids' Club know.

Dr. H.: What?

(Kid's Club is the afterschool program run by the local park district.)
