This is just like that guy (Ernie) who ran the morgue in "Return of the Living Dead". Turns out he was very likely an ex-Nazi, carried a Luger and even had the audacity to hang a poster of Eva Braun on his wall. He also listened to German music on his walkman, and even whispered in German as he watched the rain fall outside. And also (obviously) had a crematorium (ugh), and he sure seemed to enjoy his job.
