We have a cup that can contain coffee. We have a coin we can use to purchase coffee. We know of a machine that can be used to purchase said coffee and we also know of someone who really wants a cup of coffee. Logic dictates that we have both a puzzle and a way to solve it, a straightforward one at that. All we need to do is not find a way to mess up dispensing the cup of coffee, then get it to the person who wants it without wasting it. Sounds simple right? It is and yet… it isn’t.

While it’s very easy to get the coffee and bring it to the one who requests it, there are also a lot of ways you can get it wrong. The most obvious method is by trying to drink it but there are other, less apparent methods; we could offer the coffee to someone else who wouldn’t mind drinking it or dispense the coffee without putting the cup in there. Then there’s ruining the cup in some fashion, puncturing or shredding it and spilling the coffee everywhere. Handing it or any critical plot item to Harvey is typically a terrible idea if you want it to remain intact, so avoiding that is a given.

Of course, all of this is just me pondering things that surely cannot be, for the game wouldn’t allow you to get into a no-win situation. I’m sure there’ll be some contrivance that that pops up with stops you from ruining the puzzle, right?

...Right?

Uh oh.
