Prisoner’s dilemma?

Reminds me of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIRucMIxwM8

See also “monkey trap”

It also reminds me that he may get food and water now… but he’s going to have to go to the bathroom soon.

Just take the cushion off? How to you work inside the sofa?

Let Nelson do it and give him all the change he finds!

That’s the way to catch monkeys and raccoons.

You may want to try it first, Earl!

I don’t s’pose there’s a SIMPLE, OBVIOUS solution, is there, Earl? Like lifting the sofa cushion up??? Are you related to the Drabbles?

“While you’re up Nelson, take a leak for me too.”

ahh yes I have seen the video, how to catch a baboon, works on monkeys and grandpas too lol

Grab my cell phone and car keys while you are in there.

LOL!

You’re DOING it all wrong..!!!!

Or, you know, lift up the cushion…

This is the modern “monkey trap”. First, you get a monkey to watch TV. Then, you put the remote control in a tied down jar …

Poor Earl…

,,, and perhaps bring him a toilet and a newspaper.

When I was a teenager, I misplaced a library book. I searched the house over and finally found it down in the sofa. Don’t know how it got there but was glad I found it.

i would think removing the seat cushion would help him retrieve it unless he likes sitting in that position.

Why doesn’t he let go and let Nelson try? Also, sometimes you can tip the sofa and access it better from behind or underneath.

It is good to meet a man with proper priorities.

Even worse! I dropped my fidget spinner down there!

Changing the remote batteries one-handed and blind will be a bit of a challenge.

Go get get Grandma I’m SURE SHE WILL have an idea of what Grandpa can do.

like a monkey gets his hand inside a coconut and won’t let go of the treat

Nelson must think his grandpa is a real kook sometimes.

This is either a repeat or this happens frequently to Earl?
