1) There is an absolute monarch of a country. He punishes his people by death no matter how petty the crime. His views of the law are absolute. No morality enters the court, a homicide is punished exactly the same as a grandmother stealing bread for her starving grandchildren. Rebellions were put down brutally. Negligence by business owners causing the deaths of their employees were not brushed aside either. As a result, those wealthier than others started to give away their wealth to those that had less. His kingdom became a sort of utopia, nobody starved, there were no social issues. Everybody though lived in complete fear and went around their lives like mindless drones. Is this morally acceptable?

The home invasion is under way at her home. Her dog fights off the invaders and causes enough commotion for the neighbors to call the police. Family is grateful to the dog and have a special place in their hearts.
3) Edward comes home from work and greets his wife and daughter. Has a good time with his family and has dinner. His daughter comes up to him and says “I love you daddy”.

He snaps out of his delusion and remembers his family died in a house fire 6 years ago and is in a psychiatric center struggling to cope with his loss.
