Is it Yvan's beer? And he's upset because Jordy offered him his own beer? Does Jordy actually have beer? Does he give beer to Yvan? Is it a prank and he gives something other than beer to Yvan? |

Is Jordy a policeman? Setting up a sting operation to catch Yvan? YES!! Is Yvan a thief? or some other type of criminal? I forget what type of criminal Yvan was, but no matter: **********SPOILER********** Yvan was a criminal who was being hunted by the police. Jordy, a policeman, called a certain phone number trying to find a clue, when Yvan answered it out of the blue. Thinking quickly, Jordy announced, "Congratulations! You've just won a case of free beer! Where would you like it sent?" Yvan gave his address, giving the police the information needed to find Yvan and arrest him. Nice solve again, Kaylee - is that four in a row or something? Kudos also go to Jenburdoo and Doriana for their good questions. |
