A/N: As promised, the answers to the questions! With the first one, the carpenter, lorry driver, and mechanic where all women! For the second one, the doctor was the boy's mother. And the third and longest one:

1) Bono and Edge cross. (2) Bono returns. (1) Adam and Larry cross. (10) Edge returns. (2) Bono and Edge cross. (2) Total = 17

Fun fact: this last riddle is used as an interview question at Microsoft. If you can answer it in five minutes or less, you are smart enough to work there! Seems like our Ridley is rather smart...

Edwards P.O.V.

I was lounging in my chair avidly playing a game of Mario Kart when out of the corner of my eye I saw the door open and Jon walk in.

"What do you want?" I asked, not taking my eyes off the screen. I sensed him walk over and stand next to me.

"What have you been doing holed up in here for two hours?" Jon asked, crossing his arms.

"I was going over Ridley's test answers," I said avoiding a banana peel. Ha! Did those stupid monkeys think a banana peel would stop me?

"You're playing Mario Kart," Jon pointed out with a frown. "How long are you going to have her just sit there?"

I gave a side glance at Jon and saw that he was observing Ridley through one of my surveillance cameras. Ridley was currently spinning the pencil between her finger looking utterly bored.

"I don't know," I said turning back to my game, "Oh drat." With my attention diverted, I'd managed to drive myself off a bridge. "Now look what you made me do," I said fully turning to Jon.

"You have more things to worry about than losing a game of Mario Kart," Jon said disapprovingly. "Why are you even leaving her in there? You did finish going over her test, didn't you?"

"I'm testing her patience," I said with a smirk. "And of course I finished going over her test."

Jon sighed and ran a hand through his hair, "How'd the test go then?"

"Surprisingly well," I said brightly, picking up the test from where I had put it on my desk and handing it to him. "Ridley's a very bright girl, though how she answered the last question had me a bit concerned. I don't think that we should let her near Penguin anytime soon."

"What do you mean by that?" Jon asked flipping through the pages.

"She answered the riddle 'What's black, white and read all over' with 'Penguin in a blender'. Of course she wrote it down wrong to... it's supposed to be read not red."

"At least she gets points for creativity," Jon pointed out.

"She still got it wrong though..." I muttered, "the answer was supposed to be a newspaper."

"I wouldn't worry about her getting the wrong answer if I were you," Jon said, eyeing the screen. "She's beginning to look like a caged animal. The kind that will claw your eyes out if you attempt to open the cage."

I followed his gaze and saw that Ridley had started to pace the room, very much like a caged animal.

"I do suppose I should let her out now."

"Good luck with that. 50 bucks saying that she'll do you some bodily harm," Jon challenged.

"You're on," I said standing up, "let's go."
