Iced Tea
Level 2 · Medium
Two guys walk into a restaurant. They both order iced tea which is poured from the same pitcher. One of them drinks his iced tea slowly and one of them drinks it fast. They walk outside, and suddenly the guy who drank his tea slowly drops to the ground and dies. They order an autopsy and find that he died from poison. How could this be if the other guy drank the same tea and didn't even get sick?
One player reads the premise and knows the answer. Everyone else asks yes/no questions until they reconstruct what happened.
Hold, or double tap.
The answer
There was poison in the ice of the drinks. The guy who drank it fast finished it before the ice melted. The guy who drank it slowly gave the ice time to melt, so the poison got in the drink and he died.
