Despite my hopes that we would get a different winner for this round, I must've jinxed it, since Sumiki has won yet again, simply because his answer was the closest. :P

 

Answer: The man was listening to rock-and-roll music through his Walkman headphone in the kitchen. He had his hand on the kettle and his back to the door. When his wife came in, she saw him shaking violently but heard no sound, and when she called to him, he didn't hear or respond. Thinking he was suffering from an electric shock, she picked up a rolling pin and hit his arm, breaking it.

 

Rules:

  1. Don't share answers with each other, even answers you know aren't right. Doing so will get you disqualified for that round. This also applies for stealing another person's answer when you didn't come up with it yourself.
  2. You may, however, share theories. If you come up with an answer with the help of another contestant, make sure you mention that you did so, and who that was so I can give them credit.
  3. Each round, I will post the clues that correspond with that puzzle in a spoiler tag, assuming there are clues. Yes, there are some with no clues. Deal with it.
  4. If you have heard some of these puzzles before (Rockhound and Robo, I'm looking at you), out of courtasy to the other contestants please don't share the answer to others.
  5. There are no prizes for winning, save bragging rights.
  6. If you believe you have the answer, post it in spoilers in the comments. Share theories through IM, PM, whatever floats your boat.
  7. You will have one week from the posting of the new puzzle to solve it. Afterwards, the blog entry will be locked.
Puzzle: A woman whom I have never met before introduced herself to me. I didn't say a word. She told me about herself, but I didn't say a word. She told me many more things about herself, but I didn't say a word. Eventually I said one word and she was very disappointed. What was the word?

 

Clues:

  • Other people also heard what she had to say.
  • The narrator could be male or female.
  • The word I said summerized a decision that would significantly affect the woman.
  • None of my companions were allowed to speak in the woman's presence.

Go!
