I’m watching a cartoon (‘Mad Jack the Pirate’ if you know it) it’s about a self-centered pirate who thinks he’s the best even though he sucks and his search for the treasure that will make him so rich he won’t have to work a day for the rest of his life. He also has a few episodes where he has to do dangerous favors for different people bc he owes them a lot of money - he is very poor). In this episode his uncle dies and gives him most of his fortune but he first has to transport his coffin and dog to a certain island. Just before he leaves (he is on his boat with the coffin downstairs) he hears a strange sound (which could mean that his uncle is alive) and tries to explain why his uncle being a ghost is impossible: “There’s no such thing as ghost. Plus my uncle was incredibly lazy. Now that he’s dead he found the perfect excuse not to do anything. I don’t think he would give that up to start haunting”. I feel a strange attraction to the type of person his uncle was - lazy and super rich
