Assuming the autopilot is still on I would call for the FA to come up front and remove his dead arse from my seat,if the FA said that the Capt. wasn't dead, I would in the fashion of Monty Python say ... he will be soon, and then I would occupy my newly self appointed position of authority. I then would make an announcement in my deapest jet pilot voice ... "Ladies and Gentle men this is THE Captain ...
I would querry the FA's as if there were any dead heading pilots aboard, preferably a company pilot ...side note: how do you know if you are sitting next to a pilot ... answer: They will tell you. I would invite the identified pilot to occupy the squawk and talk position and advise him / her that all radio transmissions would be accorded the "let me check with THE Captain" response. I would then choose an emergency landing site with the highest possibility of National news network coverage and proceed for landing.
