 There is no display of typical "Beret Guy behavior" in this comic, although it is typical for him to be involved in an incident that [[1115: Sky|turns the world upside down]]. His encounter with organ thieves only cost him his ice, a party and that he got a nasty experience. But he retained his kidneys and was not infected with HIV (probably).

By doing it in this way, the thieves prevent themselves from becoming murderers; thus if they get caught they might get a lesser sentence.
