Maryran a watch repair shop. A customer brought her a very unusual and costly watch to repair. Mary knew that she could not fix the watch, but out of curiosity she wanted to inspect it. Therefore, she told the customer that she could do the job and took the watch.
Michaelrented the shop and also an apartment above the shop to Mary. That night asMichael happened by, he saw a light on in the shop and finding the door unlocked, decided to investigate. While looking around the shop,Michael spotted the watch. Supposing that the watch belonged to Mary, and recalling that she was much behind in her rent,Michael decided to take the watch and keep it untilMary paid.
Just as Michael was leaving the shop,Mary entered. Afraid of an altercation,Michael tossed her the watch and ran out. He was already well beyond throwing distance when Mary, by now enraged, picked up a heavy pendulum weight and hurled it at Michael. The weight fell harmlessly to the ground.
