Theoretical Problem #1
Your best friend's girlfriend has broken up
with him and he is beside himself. He's been
staying at your apartment and has barely moved.
You get a strange phone call at work from her
where she says that she needs to speak with
you. You tell her you'll call her back. You tell
your best friend, who figures that she is trying
to communicate with him through you. You call
her back and agree to meet her at a neutral pub.
Your friend preps you for every possible question.
You get to the pub early, but she is already there.
She seems a little over-dressed. You get to talking,
and she tells you thatr she isn't ready to talk
about the breakup yet; she is still too shaky.
Drinks come and go and you start to get bleary.
She seems fine and keeps asking what's wrong.
You black out. You wake in her apartment.
You aren't wearing anything. She tells you that
the two of you had fucked. You say that that is
impossible. She describes perfectly a tattoo on your
chest, and then tells you exactly how it went in the
order of the positions. You realize that her description
fits your routine exactly. She tells you that your best
friend did all sorts of bad things to her including rape
and battery. She wants to get back at him, intending
to do so via yourself. You tell her that you don't believe
her. She shows you a video tape of one such occasion
taken from a concealed camera. If you choose not to help
her she will show your best friend and the world photos she
took of you in bed last night. What do you do?
