Any answer is wrong because there simply isn’t enough information to solve this problem. I’m inclined to believe this is a hoax.
I think it’s a hoax too. As I mentioned above, I saw the same alleged question on another site, but featuring “Sally” giving out “balloons”. There was no link to verify it as actually originating from CC.
There’s enough wrong w CC w’out making stuff up. If anyone has a good link to the original CC question, however, then obviously it’s real. Just haven’t seen one so far.
