This version works without JavaScript. Read the choices and Casey’s responses:

  1. Promise all forty: Casey says, “Great. Send them over.” Otto has already done that; Ollie still does not know what matters.
  2. Ask about the font: Casey says, “Any is fine. I still need all forty.” The detail does not reveal the priority.
  3. Ask which part needs to work: Casey says, “One short demo. The screens can wait.”
  4. Guess that screens count as a demo: Casey says, “I need to see it work, not just a stack of screens.” Ollie still needs to ask who is watching.
  5. Ask who needs to see it work: Casey says, “The investor. She needs one live button.”
