Lucy and Lory are sisters. They are special. They usually tell the truth in all cases, but when recalling something her sister has said, then they twist it a little bit.
For instance, when referring to something Lory had said, Lucy always says quite the contrary: "Lucy, look, the sky is beautiful." "Did you say the sky is ugly?".
In Lory's case, when referring so something Lucy said, She always doubles any quantity that appears in the sentence: " Hey, Lory, I found two flowers." "Mom, Lucy says she found four flowers".
Some day they were talking about a friend of theirs and mom came by. She heard this:
- As you say, Jorge is the younger brother.
- But you said his brother was 20 years younger.
- No, it was you who said that his brother was three times Jorge's age.
- Well, that is not important. The important thing is that, as you said, Jorge is 30 years old.
