Instructions

We come across many funny incidents related to different walks of life. One of the funny incident is the punchline or a climax — which gives the incident a sudden transformation or twist (into something not expected). It is this punchline which makes the incident funny.
In each of the following questions an incident is described but the punchline is missing - indicated by a blank. After the incident, two statements numbered I and II are given. Considering the- incident, you have to decide which of the two statements fits as a punchline.

Question 89

Wife : The cleaning woman seems to have stolen two of our new towels.
Husband : Which towel ?
Wife : .......
I.“The ones we had been gifted on our anniversary”.
II. “The ones we brought back from the hotel in Delhi.”

Solution

Both options are apt punchlines are they change the course of discussion altogether by twisting the phrase 'new towels' by first mentioning them as gifts on the anniversary and second by mentioning them as the ones brought from the hotel. In both the cases, the towels won't be new, but the two statements are different ideas altogether.
