The friend or Mom may have even intentionally given him the cheese'd burger
(maybe hoping he'd actually die) and blame McD as part of the plan.
"Jeremy, here's your no cheese'd quarter pounder." He accepts it on faith!
They tell the cops lies, get an ambulance chasing attorney and bingo, a
$10million lawsuit.

It wreaks of fraud, imho.
