Gary and The Weasel in: The Purr-fect Crime
Gary and The Weasel are the two newest detectives in the Weird Things Universe. Gary is a former shop teacher that has lost multiple fingers in one or more unknown accidents back in 1986. Gary admire's his partner very much and often speaks in a British accent without knowing it. The Weasel is a very proper English gentlemen and the origin of his nickname is unknown.
The men are sent on assignment to Poland where it appears that someone has leached 200 Polish zlotys from a business and they are tasked with finding the culprit.
After some minor investigation, the detectives find out that the business is an animal shelter. Gary and The Weasel couldn't figure out what the hell was going on, so they went to the video surveillance footage. On the footage they saw a cat going into the cash box, stealing bills and hiding them in the couch.
Neanderthal Vs. Human
Who would win in a fight between a neanderthal and a human. Neanderthals are known to have been stronger than humans, however humans have the edge in height and endurance.
They all agree that if you take the toughest, meanest neanderthal ever and pit him against the toughest, meanest human ever, the human would win because we have generations of fighting knowledge on our side. The better question would be an average neanderthal vs. an average human of the time.
The guys didn't really know who would win, however the conversation devolved into which movie version of Tom Hardy would win in tournament against other movie versions of Tom Hardy.
Andrew's Got a Secret
Andrew wants to play a guessing game about a person. Andrew is thinking of a man who has the initials J.K. (except he totally doesn't, not sure what Andrew was talking about) and he is very special. He died sometime in the 50s. He witnessed a very violent event that changed the course of history.
Turns out his name was Samuel James Seymour and he witnessed the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. In 1956 he was on the game show "I've Got A Secret" and you can watch it here.
