Dream: Herman Munster fakes his death

So I might have been watching a tad too much DS9 (no such thing!). I dreamt there was a dude who was Herman Munster as a Cardassian. I just realized Cardassian sounds like someone with a really flat bum. At any rate, this person decided he would fake his death so his family could get insurance money and a pension sort of thing from the place he worked.
So it looked legit to outsiders, he would lay stomach down in this rather deep puddle—as puddles go. His face was on the leafy ground, and he would sleep there so it looked to the world that he was dead.
Since he had a lot of time on his hands during the daytime, he would try to fill his time by entertaining himself. A music montage ensued, showing various scenes. In one he was practicing Tai Chi, but flexed his hands weird and then hooked his thumbs together and said “Eagle Spreads Its Wings” and “Bird Flutters By” or something similar, then dissolved into laughter. He did other things.
Finally, after applying make-up to make himself appear greyer and more ghostly, his wife came out of the house—I think she might have been a blonde Cardassian lady too—and told him enough time had passed and people thought he was dead, and then she hugged him and said he could come back to the house.
