Plot[]

There was a con-man named Raul, who poses as a dentist to swindle old ladies and steal their money. When he realizes that his new target has bad breath, he goes to the bathroom for mints. He ends up mistakenly swallowing denture whitening tablets. He responds to that by drinking dissolved denture cleaner (thinking it was water). The two denture products destroy his insides and he dies in 10 minutes due to lack of oxygen in his blood.

"Raul was a fake, who lied to get what he wanted. In the end, you can say he died of...truth decay."
