Revenge of the Madoff Victims

In The New Yorker, Woody Allen imagines two Madoff victims who lose their lives after losing their money and return reincarnated as…lobsters!

The pair are captured and end up tanked in a New York restaurant. Who walks in and selects the pair for his dinner? Madoff, of course:

Moscowitz and Silverman, their ire reaching cosmic dimensions, rocked the tank to and fro until it toppled off its table, smashing its glass walls and flooding the hexagonal-tile floor. Heads turned as the alarmed captain looked on in stunned disbelief. Bent on vengeance, the two lobsters scuttled swiftly after Madoff. They reached his table in an instant, and Silverman went for his ankle. Moscowitz, summoning the strength of a madman, leaped from the floor and with one giant pincer took firm hold of Madoff’s nose.

We have about a dozen lobster boats in the harbor at the moment. How cool to think one of them sent Moscowitz and Silverman on their mission.
