01:04She confirmed that the woman wearing a red dress and red shoes had bought a necklace that day.

01:10On Saturday, Mrs. Lawrence called the police herself. She whispered,

01:14I'm locked in some house. I managed to find a cell phone, but I may be discovered at any...

01:20The call got suddenly interrupted. The police officer who had been talking to her managed to track the call,

01:26but she could only figure out the street. Look at the houses in the street and try to figure out where Mrs. Lawrence is kept.

01:43She must be in this house. Look, there's a tiny piece of red fabric on the fence over there.

01:48And Mrs. Lawrence was wearing a red dress.

01:56Ten witches met up for their annual coven. The head witch looked at the rest of the group and exclaimed,

02:02According to the laws of our community, we can't live among people or communicate with them.

02:07And still, one of you has broken this rule.

02:11Look at the witches and find out who it is.

02:15It's the witch in the purple hat. There's a smartphone in her pocket.

02:23Three friends, Kathy, Mark, and Lauren, gathered together to catch up on their latest news at Lawrence Place.

02:30At one point, they decided to play hide and seek, but it was Lauren's turn to look for her friends.

02:36She easily found Mark, but even with his help, she couldn't locate Kathy.

02:40Can you help Lauren find her friend?

02:50She took her task seriously. Look, she's hiding in a trash can.

02:54Eww.

03:10Discover the Sun was a very popular travel agency.

03:13It sold packaged tours to the hottest and most exotic destinations.

03:17But one day, the police found out that this company helped criminals flee the country.

03:23They also learned the exact date when it would happen the next time.

03:27On that day, several police officers arrived at the airport.

03:31They stopped a group of tourists who were flying to a Caribbean island.

03:36But the detectives didn't know the criminal's identity.

03:39That's why they had to search the baggage of all the passengers.

03:44Look at their bags and say who the criminal is.

03:57It's the young woman on the left.

03:59If she's going on a packaged tour to a hot place, why does she need a winter jacket?

04:08Megan invited her friends to a restaurant to celebrate her birthday.

04:12They had a lot of fun.

04:14Megan got the best birthday present ever.

04:16Her friends gave her a ring with a large diamond.

04:19But suddenly, the room plunged into darkness.

04:23After several minutes of total confusion, the lights came back on.

04:26But Megan's ring was gone!

04:28Look at the image attentively and try to figure out who stole it.

04:41It's the waiter.

04:42Look at the glass he's holding.

04:44He put the ring inside.

04:46Now there's much more water in it.

04:52Jacob's girlfriend, Nicole, loved riddles.

04:55One day, she was on a business trip to France.

04:58She called Jacob and told him it was her relative's birthday.

05:01Could you go and congratulate my family member, please?

05:08Nicole answered,

05:09It's the daughter of the only son of my grandfather.

05:13Who is this mysterious relative Jacob is asked to congratulate?

05:26It's Nicole's sister.

05:32Ms. Lopez took her students to an art museum.

05:35Half an hour into the excursion, a worried museum worker came up to the professor.

05:39He told Ms. Lopez that one of the exhibits, an ancient vase, had been damaged.

05:45The culprit was most likely one of the students.

05:48Only three of them came close to the vase.

05:51Maria said,

05:52After I looked at the vase, I noticed my makeup was smudged.

05:55So I went straight to the bathroom.

05:57Anthony replied,

05:59I didn't touch the exhibit.

06:00After looking at it, I went to the next room to see dino skeletons.

06:05And Nathan said he'd been following Ms. Lopez, taking notes.

06:08One of these students is lying.

06:10But who?

06:12Anthony.

06:13There are no dinosaur bones in the art museum.

06:20Tyler made a bet with a friend that he could get out of any locked place.

06:24The next thing he knew, he was in a large room, locked in a cage.

06:28There were three levers in the wall next to the cage.

06:31If he pulled the first lever, he could get out of the cage.

06:34The next thing he knew, he was in a large room, locked in a cage.

06:38There were three levers in the wall next to the cage.

06:40If he pulled the first lever, he would let hungry lions into the cage.

06:44The second lever would fill the cage with water.

06:47And the third lever would activate a special mechanism.

06:50It'd make the top of the cage move down towards the bottom,

06:53crushing everyone and everything inside.

06:56Which lever should Tyler pull to survive?

07:08His only choice is the second lever.

07:10All the water will flow out through the bars of the cage.

07:17Matthew has only black and white socks.

07:20But he keeps them all mixed.

07:22One evening, the guy is in a hurry.

07:24He's getting ready for a date.

07:26Suddenly, the power goes out.

07:28Now it's completely dark in the room.

07:30The guy has ten white and ten black socks in the drawer.

07:34How many socks must he pull out of the drawer to get two matching ones?

07:47Just three.

07:48In a set of three socks, he's bound to have two socks of the same color.

07:56Dennis, Maria and Julie were at a party.

07:59They decided to play a game.

08:01There were five hats, two red ones and three yellow ones.

08:04The friends closed their eyes,

08:06took a random hat each and put them on their heads.

08:09Then they opened their eyes and looked at one another.

08:12Each of them had to guess what color the hat on their head was.

08:16Dennis and Julie said they didn't know.

08:19But Maria exclaimed that she knew the color of her hat.

08:22What color was it?

08:32It was yellow.

08:33Maria saw that Dennis and Julie were wearing red hats

08:36and she knew there were only two of those.

08:43You need to take two apples from your garden and bring them to your friend.

08:46But she lives on the other bank of the river.

08:49To get to her house, you have to cross a bridge.

08:51It can hold your weight and the weight of one apple.

08:54If you try to step on the bridge with two apples, it'll collapse.

08:58And the water in the river is swarming with piranhas.

09:01What can you do to bring your friend two apples if you can only make one trip?

09:15You should cross the bridge while juggling the apples.

09:23Ben woke up in a hospital.

09:24He only remembered his name and nothing else.

09:27A doctor came in to check on the guy.

09:29He said three young women were waiting to see Ben.

09:33The women came in.

09:34Strangely, each of them claimed to be the guy's sister.

09:37But only one of them is telling the truth.

09:40Who was it?

09:51The one girl in the middle.

09:52She has a birthmark on her hand.

09:54And Ben has the same.

09:58Two roommates, Hannah and Megan, were walking home after doing their weekly grocery shopping.

10:06Hannah kept complaining about how heavy her bags were.

10:09Then Megan told her,

10:11I don't understand why you're upset.

10:13If you gave me one of your bags, I would have twice more bags as you do.

10:17And if I gave you one of mine, we would have the same number of bags.

10:21How many bags were the girls carrying?

10:27Megan had seven bags, while Hannah was only carrying five bags.
