A practical, blue-collar presence who has been hired to do a simple job and quickly realizes he is nowhere near the correct pay grade. He is not cowardly so much as admirably honest about danger; when the cemetery starts behaving badly, he takes the most sensible path available and leaves. This role should be natural, dry, and reactive, with strong comic timing. He serves as the audience’s common sense in the scene: confused, unnerved, and increasingly unwilling to pretend any of this is normal.
