Dude's roommate chokes to dead on a piece of steak. Somehow his name is put on the patient's file. Perhaps because he had been there before. He was told they'll get ahold of the now brain dead guy's family.
Somehow, using the home address of the patient they crossed into the other's info, called his sister that her brother needs a decision to pull the plug, harvest organs etc...then later to have the body cremated.
The guy calls his sister after his phone is cut off...surprising everyone.
TBF the brother didn't have that much brain function himself.
