The man, his friend and his wife were stranded on a desert island for years. The man was blinded in the shipwreck. At some point, the wife died. The wife was then cooked and fed to the man by his friend, who told him it was seagull. Suspicious, the man tried seagull after returning home (post-rescue, obviously). He realised what happened, and shot himself.

Not the greatest of love stories but hey, you get what you pay for. I'll start the next one in a new thread to save on confusion.
