A Course Around the World!

The United States of America: Ohio

The Ohio sun rises but the clouds hinder the suns ability to shine through. 

"Ohio! Home of the Buckeyes!" says Liz

"What's a Buckeye?" says Mark

"I don't actually know. We should get one," says Ash 

"Hmmm. I should search it up," says Geneive

"WHAT? I WANT A BUCKEYE! MMMM I WONDER HOW IT WOULD TASTE LIKE!" butts in Amber.

The 5 were due in at the small business at 10 AM they had 2 hours to kill. Amber starts up the machine and the campervan begins driving towards a world-famous Buckeyes production shop. The drive was only a 1/2 an hour drive, but because they were outsiders they took a much longer way, arriving much later than expected.

"Buckeyes. Land of Ohio." 

The 5 quintet walk in and a sudden rush of aromas fill their noses.

"This smells amazing! I need a box with me!" says Amber.

"Yeah, same! I need the best ones that look 'Instagram-able'!"

The quintet, laugh and take pictures as they eat their Buckeyes. "My post will get over 250 likes on Instagram!" laughs Geneive. "As if you'll get over 10 likes, you only have 80 followers." jokingly says, Liz. 

10 AM Ohio Time:

The quintet gets to the business dead on time. While they wait for the business to open, they gracefully eat their Buckeyes. Bit by bit, little by little,  they devour their goodies. Soon, the bags of souvenirs they had bought had disappeared out of sight. The only time they could revisit their goods was when.... you know ;).

The door of the business swings open a sign and several tables get placed outside. The lights get switched on, the curtains lifted, and the cabinets of food lighten up. 

"Mmmmm, when we finish our mission we can get some more sweets! Hopefully, they do have some buckeyes we could enjoy," says Mark.

"Yes, hopefully, they do," says Geneive.

The 4 (excluding food coma induced Amber), enter the business ready for a series of problems. 

"Welcome, welcome, welcome! Welcome to my business, a small family-run business which is sadly losing food during the day. I don't know why these thieves are targeting my food but they seriously need some discipline. I've reported the crimes towards the police, but they seem to 'brush the problems off their shoulders'." says Harlem. 

"Noted, we will need to review your cameras if you have any, work out your budget for any costs induced, and we'll need to if we actually do, close down the business while renovations are taking place," says Ash

"O-right. Follow me into the back, we'll discuss the plan."

The quartet moves towards the back into a flour room. "Wow, you guys do seem to have a lot of flour!"

"Yes, in fact, we use over 10 kilos of it each day!"

"First of all, we would need to review your camera footage. Then we will discuss everything else.

The owner of the small business shows the 4 footage from Day 1. They were all intrigued by how these thieves were able to steal without the staff knowing. They would always come at the same hour and they seem to be the same group of people.

"Very interesting..."

"Interesting indeed"

"Yes, I would like a plan of action presented to me now."
