    I can honestly say that I immediately noticed we couldn't actually see what Bob took from the locker. It's clever that they worked in a lesson about jumping to conclusions.

    One of my favorite quotes has to do with honesty like this when it comes to knowing the truth before telling others. It's something like "a lie can get halfway around the world before truth has a chance to put its pants on."
