If you go over to Fleshbot, you can see the soldier pull over the next van and do his best Mary Carey impression. It gets sloppy.

Oh, come on, everyone! It's not that hard to spell his name! It's not "Carey"; it's not "Carrey". It's spelled "B-U-D-W-E-I-S-E-R".

Spelled backwards, that's "Iracane".
