-Tom-

  The man nods contentedly as you name your mission and then asks you the first riddle: “Tom gets a call from his neighbor on the way. He tells him nervously that water is coming from his apartment. When Tom returns home, he realizes that his sink has overflowed. He remembers that he had wanted to cool a bottle of orange juice and had forgotten to turn off the tap. When he left the house, however, the drain was clear and the bottle was in the sink so that it was not blocking the drain. How did the flood still happen?” He looks at you questioningly.
