Nothing opens on Sunday

On Monday an individual had been very sad when a friend appears:

        - So, what has happened?

        - I told Lee that the people of this land are very religious.

        - I know, I have been here for twenty years. But what does that have to do with Lee?

        - He jumped yesterday by parachute and died.

        - The parachute did not open?

        - Exactly.

        - Despite of being here for a  short time, he should have known that here, nothing opens on Sundays ...
