Barb, honey... we're dead. I don't think we have very much to worry about anymore.

What it means
Our interpretation.
Speaking affectionately to Barb, the speaker points out that they are dead, so there is little left to worry about. The words seem to offer comfort through a dry, matter-of-fact view of their situation. Reassurance arrives with a hint of gallows humour.
