You're right. It is intentional. They want us to worry and feel bad. If we give in, we worry about what we might do. If we don't, we worry about what they -- or he? -- might do.
I don't want to think I'm just going to give into them so easily like this, but I think it's better for now if I go along with it. I mean, there's no telling what they might do to people who don't cooperate. Or maybe they'll play pranks on these people anyway if I don't.
[Probably much meaner pranks than Shirley could ever think of, too.]
