Gordo and Steve make arrangements for a meeting at a particular place. Gordo has no intention of being there, but if Steve is late by even a few seconds Gordo could lose his job. What's going on? | ||

Is the meeting in connection with Gordo's job? With Steve's? Do Gordo and Steve both work for the same organization? Is Gordo Steve's boss? Does Steve know that Gordo has no intention of being there? Is a third person at the scene of the rendezvous? Are any CCTV cameras involved? | ||

Is Gordo someone's assistant\secretary? No Is the meeting in connection with Gordo's job? Yes With Steve's? And yes Do Gordo and Steve both work for the same organization? Yes Is Gordo Steve's boss? No (good q) Does Steve know that Gordo has no intention of being there? Yes Is a third person at the scene of the rendezvous? Very likely Are any CCTV cameras involved? Can you possibly rephrase this question? | ||

Are CCTV cameras in any way relevant to the puzzle? Are there any such cameras at the site of the rendezvous? If so, are they switched on and functioning? Is Steve asked to take anything with him to the rendezvous? Is the rendezvous a legal activity (in, let's say, USA jurisdiction)? Would anyone be killed or hurt if Steve were to be a few seconds late? Do we need to find out more about the actual site of the rendezvous? | ||

Is Gordo's job to get Steve to place x at a certain time? e.g. Steve is an astronaut, and Gordo is a NASA scientist, and we're talking about some space-station docking scenario? If Steve was a few seconds early, would Gordo still be likely to lose his job? If he were a few minutes early? | ||

Are CCTV cameras in any way relevant to the puzzle? I'll say this...there are cameras involved, and they probably aren't CCTV although some of them may be Are there any such cameras at the site of the rendezvous? Not at the exact site, no If so, are they switched on and functioning? Slight FA (see previous answer) Is Steve asked to take anything with him to the rendezvous? No (good q) Is the rendezvous a legal activity (in, let's say, USA jurisdiction)? Yes Would anyone be killed or hurt if Steve were to be a few seconds late? Killed - no. Hurt - maybe Do we need to find out more about the actual site of the rendezvous? Of course Is Gordo's job to get Steve to place x at a certain time? Hmmm...it is from a certain viewpoint, but this needs to be explored e.g. Steve is an astronaut, and Gordo is a NASA scientist, and we're talking about some space-station docking scenario? Not the case but a good suggestion If Steve was a few seconds early, would Gordo still be likely to lose his job? yes, maybe even more likely to lose it If he were a few minutes early? This would not be possible | ||

So Gordon meets with Steve face-to-face (?) and arranges Steve's meeting with J (?) in the place J plans to be (?) but without J knowing about this arrangement? Steve must be there dead on time, or Gordon, and possibly Steve, will be hurt. Both Steve and Gordon are satisfied with the arrangement ( but not "happy" ). Does "hurt" mean loosing their jobs or something more? Is J dangerous in criminal way or only as a person of authority ( e.g. Gordon's and Steve's boss )? Is the story related to TV? radio? The place where the meeting is to take place: auditorium / studio? TV / radio station building? outside the building? | ||

So Gordo meets with Steve face-to-face (?) Yes and arranges Steve's meeting with J (?) NO- FA in the place J plans to be (?) Well, yes, but there is more to this but without J knowing about this arrangement? Yes - like I said, there is more to J's involvement than has been discovered Steve must be there dead on time, or Gordon, and possibly Steve, will be hurt. No - If Steve is late, or on time, he is at risk for being hurt. Regardless of what time Steve arrives, there is a chance that Gordo will be hurt but his chance of this is much smaller Both Steve and Gordon are satisfied with the arrangement ( but not "happy" ). Right Does "hurt" mean loosing their jobs or something more? In this case it refers to injury/harm Is J dangerous in criminal way or only as a person of authority ( e.g. Gordon's and Steve's boss )? Neither of these Is the story related to TV? radio? Yes, related to both The place where the meeting is to take place: auditorium / studio? No TV / radio station building? No outside Yes the building? No building involved, so FA here | ||

Is the meeting anything to do with sports? Yes Are any of their jobs sports related? Yes, all of them And are there thousands (possibly millions) of people of age ages (but primarily male?) who may be emotionally and/or financially invested in the outcome even though they don't know the participants personally? Certainly, and of more importance are the ones who DO know the participants (at least two of them) personally If it's now obvious to everyone I'll drop the solution, but if anyone hasn't guessed it yet I'll leave it open for just a short while longer | ||

** SPOILER ** This puzzle describes a football play. Gordo, the quarterback, sets up a play in which the plan is to pass the ball to Steve, who will hopefully run the correct route and be in place to catch the ball. Otherwise J, who is covering Steve, could intercept the ball. Gordo has had problems lately and the interception could be the final straw and he could lose his job on the team. | ||
