Quizplus · Accepted Answer

If Mousey Mike threatens to tell, Bratty Brad's best response would be to not hit. This is because if Brad hits and Mike tattles, then both of them will experience a loss of 10. On the other hand, if Brad does not hit, then Mike may still tattle, but Brad will only experience a loss of 5, while Mike will still gain nothing. Therefore, not hitting is the better option for Brad. Running or hiding are not realistic options in this game.
