Richard Lewis spoke about death in his final scene on Curb Your Enthusiasm, the HBO hit on which he had been a regular for its 12 seasons.
The beloved comedian, who played a fictional version of himself on the show alongside creator and star Larry David, died at age 76 on Tuesday after a fatal heart attack, his publicist Jeff Abraham said.
The scene, from the third episode of the show’s recent twelfth season, titled Vertical Drop, Horizontal Tug, aired less than two weeks ago, on February 18.
In it, Lewis and David, who had been friends since they were teenagers, showed off their comedic chemistry while playing on a golf course and enjoying the breeze.
Lewis told David, who also plays himself on the show, that he would leave him in his will.
Richard Lewis, who died Tuesday at age 76, spoke about the death in his final scene on Curb Your Enthusiasm, the HBO hit on which he had been a regular during its 12 seasons alongside his longtime friend Larry David. .
The beloved comedian, who played a fictional version of himself on the show alongside creator and star Larry David, died at age 76 on Tuesday after a fatal heart attack.
“I leave you in my will, I change it, and you’re in it,” Lewis told David, who immediately felt uncomfortable with the idea.
“I don’t need it, I have money, give it to someone who needs it,” David replied, as Lewis insisted he get a cut of the procedure.
“When I die I want you to know how much I care about you,” Lewis told David. “You’re my best friend, you’re getting it.”
David continued to protest receiving funds from Lewis’ will, saying he would donate them to charity, and was making a “Sherman-esque” statement, referring to American Civil War general William Tecumseh Sherman.
David quoted the late general when he said, “If I am nominated, I will not run, and if I am nominated, I will not accept.”
Lewis said in response: ‘Well, I’ll bequeath it!’
Lewis appeared in 41 episodes of the hit comedy since its pilot episode in 2000.
