As an alleged accomplice to murder, arrested game theory professor Jeffery deScissors is excited to face his first real life prisoner’s dilemma.
“Finally! I waited my whole life for this moment!” shouted deScissors as he was dragged away in a pair of handcuffs. “Can you tell me what the payoff matrix would be if I cooperate or relent?”
“Hmm, in a theoretical context, it’s always better to deny your involvement in the crime,” deScissors explained to the interrogating officer by scratching a 2 by 2 box into the table. “But then again, I do trust my partner to do the right thing… I don’t know. I guess I will plead… Not guilty? Or no. Guilty? What did my partner say?”
At press time, a law professor was excited to test the limits of the Second Amendment.
