    A-Train is the MAN.

    The answer to puzzle #1 is Snakes on a Plane


    Since you got that one so quickly. Here comes the next one right away.

    Puzzle #2

    Things were going fine until he told Britney "This". Then she cursed him out and threatened to report on him. What did he say?

    Status: Solved. He said, "I put on my robe and wizard hat."

    Did he say "This" or something specific which "This" is?

    He said something specific which is the answer I'm looking for. So I put this in quotations.

    Not really.

    Once you mentioned planes, I thought it was pretty obvious. :)

    Was there a signicance in putting the word "scream" on the second line instead of the first??

    shouldn't there be a question in your clue? like a "why" or a "what".

    The capital letters on the second line (which were a bigger size font) were S.O.A.P. = Snakes On A Plane. Just wanted to toss out a subconscious clue.

    You mean the first puzzle? I guess I should have put it on, but it would have ruined my S.O.A.P. subconscious clue. In the end it didn't matter.

    Does it involve something illegal?

    Does it have anything to do with children?

    Does it have anything to do with a job?

    No

    Not Illegal.

    Not really. There is one tiny bit of this scenario that somewhat deals with children.

    No.

    Well no it doesn't because the original statement says he told Britney this and not asked Britney this, so would it be "It's not mine."
