The sausage reply wasn’t Jordan’s solely blunder of the evening. Different followers identified how he saved guessing the letter “Ok” in puzzles that made no sense, together with “S T A _ I N G / O U T / A T / T _ E / O C E A N.” Maybe the police officer has finished a stake-out at sea earlier than?
