Scenario 4: SUSPICION
Introduction : Tell
other people : Confront Molly : Talk to Molly alone
You chose:
Go alone the next day to see Molly and say, "I'm sorry if we seemed to be making accusations. But you need to realize that there is some evidence against you. If you are by any chance responsible for these thefts, I urge you to think about returning the money before criminal charges are brought."
Molly says, "You are jumping to conclusions. I had nothing to do with the theft of Alex's wallet, and I resent your accusation. I went into his room to leave, not take, something. ... I left him some brownies. I didn't want him to know who they were from." You remember about Alex's secret admirer who left him little presents and realize that that explains what you saw and why Molly has been acting strangely. You apologize to her. To
clear her of suspicion, she (or you) will have to reveal that she
is the secret admirer, and she will be embarrassed.
