I vaguely remember a story about a man dying spontaneously on a plane. The man had a huge balloon full of cocaine stuffed up a vital orifice. During the course of the flight, either due to change in pressure or sudden jolt... the balloon burst. And the man was fatally poisoned by the sheer quantity of the drug in his system. Similar situation? |

It was alcohol, correct? Was the drink otherwise non-alcoholic? Was he trying to get Vic drunk? Trying to make him make a fool of himself? Do something stupid? Was Vic a designated driver that night? Is the reason for the party relevant? Was it Vic's birthday? Are Leo and Vic friends? |

Did Vic not normally drink? Had he previously criticised Leo for drinking too much? Was he some kind of authority figure? Was Leo trying to ridicule him? To get revenge for something? To make people think that Vic had got drunk through his own choice? |

To make people think that Vic had got drunk through his own choice? ****SPOILER**** Vic was a non-drinker. At a party, Leo thought it would be funny to spike his drink and get him drunk. However, Vic did not realize he was drunk; he just knew he was feeling strange, and he decided to leave, having driven himself to the party. Unfortunately, Leo was also leaving, and while walking alongside the road, he was struck and killed by Vic. Nice work everyone, good solve Enjay, new puzzle shortly. |
