Mrs Packletide's Tiger

Question

Wired Faculty App

How did Mrs. Mebbin exploit Mrs. Packletide?

Solution

Louisa Mebbin exploited Mrs. Packletide into buying her the weekend cottage or else she would have told Loona Bimberton that it was not the tiger but a mere goat that Mrs. Packletide had shot.
Miss Mebbin commented that the bullet had shot the goat not the tiger. The tiger had succumbed to heart failure caused by the sound of firing accelerated by senile decay. She made this comment to take advantage of the fact that the tiger was not killed by Mrs. Packletide.
