With answers to the first question of the day (no. 25) already flying in, how about we move on to question two? Up for grabs today we have the perfect ‘MOO Combo’ a MiniCard Mosaic Frame and a pack of MOO MiniCards! So, make yourself a cup of tea (or mug of coffee), grab a biscuit, and settle down with Question 26!
Unbearable Lightness of Being: An Angry Interlude
Every family has their squabbles, but when the three bears have a disagreement it’s not pretty. This is one of those angry moments for the three bears. While taking pictures of Richard Moross, Poppa bear wolfed down all the food, complained that is wasn’t enough for him and now all their blood sugars have dropped and they’re squabbling.
- Poppa bear is angry at momma bear because she’s ducking her responsibility for taking any photos.
- Momma bear is angry at baby bear because his photos turned out grainy.
- Baby bear isn’t angry at anybody, because he took his photos and he’s generally pretty even tempered anyway.
To make matters worse, the bears are all tired, hungry, and running late for an appointment with their client, Goldilocks. The somehow agree that they should take a cab from MOO HQ to their office, which presents a unique challenge. There’s only one taxi in the city willing to give rides to bears and it is is only large enough to carry one of them at a time. Poppa bear refuses to be left alone (on either end of the trip) with momma bear and Momma bear refuses to be left alone (on either end of the trip) with baby bear.
Q: Can you tell the cab driver how to get all three bears back to the office without leaving poppa and momma bear alone or momma and baby bear alone?

1. Take Momma to the office
2. Drive back to MOO HQ
3. Take Baby to the office, pick up Momma
4. Drive back to MOO HQ, drop off Momma, pick up Poppa
5. Take Poppa to the office, drop off Poppa with Baby
6. Drive back to MOO HQ, pick up Momma
7. Drive Momma to the office, drop off Momma
Take Momma to office; return to HQ, take Baby to office, bring Momma back to HQ; take Poppa to office; return to HQ, take Momma to office
Ist trip carry baby bear
2nd trip Poppa bear
3rd trip momma bear
Cab takes Momma, cab returns, cab takes Baby, cab returns with Momma, cab takes Poppa, cab returns, cab takes Momma.
The cab first takes Momma to the office and then returns, empty, to Moo HQ. It picks up Baby at Moo HQ and drops him off at the office, at which point Momma gets in the cab and heads back to Moo HQ. Momma gets out and Poppa gets in, and the taxi takes him to the office where he gets out and joins Baby. The cab then returns, empty, to Moo HQ, where Momma’s been waiting all by her lonesome, and she gets in the cab to head back to the office and join the rest of the Bears.
First take momma bear to the office, leaving baby with poppa. Then pick up baby and take baby to the office, swapping baby with momma. When you get back to the office, momma and papa will switch out. Drop papa off at the office and finally, go get momma.
Bring Momma bear to destination first. Come back and take Baby bear, but bring Mother Bear back to MOO HQ. (So for now only Baby bear is left at destination.) Immediately take Poppa bear to destination. Then come back and -finally!- bring Momma bear.
(Hope everything’s clear and makes sense since English isn’t my first language ;)
The cab driver should:
1. Take Momma bear to the office
2. Come back to Moo HQ alone
3. Take Poppa bear to the office
4. Bring Momma bear back to Moo HQ
5. Take Baby bear to the office
6. Come back to Moo HQ alone
7. Bring Momma bear back to the office
1. Take momma bear to the office.
2. Take poppa bear to the office, take momma bear back to HQ and drop her off.
3. Take baby bear to the office.
4. Take momma bear to the office.
Get them sedated first?
Take mama bear
Go back and get papa bear and take him
Take mama bear back to the start leaving just papa bear
Take baby bear to the end leaving him with papa bear
go back and get mama bear
The cab driver picks up Momma bear and takes her to a bar near to the office, but not there. While Momma bear has a drink,the cab driver does two return trips to the HQ and picks up, separately, Baby bear and Poppa bear. This done he goes back to the bar and brings Momma bear to the office, too. All happy and Momma bear just slightly tipsy.
1. Have cab take momma to the office
2. Have cab return empty to Moo HQ
3. Have cab take poppa to the office
4. Have cab take momma back to Moo HQ
5. Have cab take baby to the office
6. Have cab return empty to Moo HQ
7. Have cab take momma to the office
First the cab takes Momma bear alone to the other side, drives back to Moo, and takes Poppa bear. When he gets to the office, he drops off Poppa bear and brings Momma back to Moo, leaves her at Moo and drives Baby bear to their office, comes back and picks up Momma bear again to bring her to Poppa and Baby at the office.
The Taxi would take Momma bear to the office, return home (empty) and take Baby bear to the office.
The taxi would then take Momma home and take Papa to the office, and return home to take Momma to the office.
Momma goes to the office. Cab goes back to MOO HQ to pick up Baby. Baby goes to the office while Momma rides back to HQ. Poppa takes the cab to the office and then the cab goes back to HQ to pick up Momma. Then, all three are at the office.
The taxi cab driver picks up Momma bear to drive her office first, then drives back to MOO HQ pick up Baby bear. When Baby bear gets out at the office, Momma gets back in the taxi to ride back to MOO HQ to pick up Papa. When the taxi gets to MOO HQ, Momma should get out, so Papa can get in. The taxi will take Papa back to the office, and return to HQ to pick up Momma, who will then ride to the office for the final time.
On the first trip, the driver takes Momma bear back to the office. Then he returns and picks up Baby. He drives Baby to the office where he picks Momma back up, leaving Baby at the office. Momma gets dropped back at the HQ where Papa is picked up and taken back to the office and is left with Baby bear. Then the driver returns to pick up Momma bear and give her a ride to the office.
The cab driver has to follow the following way:
- momma bear first
- then the poppa bear, and bring the momma bear back
- then baby bear
- and at last momma bear again!
Take momma to client, go back, take baby to client, take momma to HQ, take poppa to client, go back, take baby to client.
bring mama bear
go get baby bear
bring baby bear
bring back mama bear
get papa bear
bring papa bear to baby bear
go get mama bear
everyone is at MOO HQ
Taxi takes Momma (ladies first!) first. Then he heads back (empty car), gets Poppa and drives him to Momma. Taxi takes Momma BACK (leaving Poppa alone at the end point) and drops Momma at the start point. He simultaneously picks up Baby there and drives him to the end point (where Poppa is waiting). Last but not least, the taxi drives back to get Momma and let her be together with her loving husband and darling baby!
1- Cab picks up Momma bear and takes her home.
2- Cab then picks up Papa bear and takes him home.
3- Cab takes Momma bear back to MOOHQ
4- Cab takes Baby bear home
5- Cab goes back and picks up Momma bear and takes her home.
Thanks!

Have the driver take Momma bear to the office, then go back to pick up Poppa bear. When he brings Poppa bear back to the office, pick up Momma bear and take her back to MOO HQ. She stays there and baby bear goes back in the cab to the office to stay with Poppa bear. The cab goes back to MOO HQ to pick up Momma bear, finally taking her to their office!
Momma Bear needs to be picked up first, and temporarily be dropped off at a midpoint in the trip.
Then, the taxi driver can pick up Baby and Poppa bear in any order he pleases, and drop them each off at the end point, where they’ll wait while the taxi driver goes back to the midpoint to pick up Momma bear.
I suppose I cheated a bit with my first answer. :P
Assuming that the taxi can’t make stops except at the starting and end points, and/or Momma bear will be offended if she’s dropped off somewhere randomly… the only solution is:
1) drive momma bear to the end point
2) drive back and pick up poppa bear and drop him off at the end point, but pick up momma bear and take her back
3) drop off momma bear at the starting point, and pick up baby bear
4) drop off baby bear with poppa bear, and go back to pick up momma bear
5) pick up momma bear and reunite the “happy” family
First, the cabbie takes Mama Bear to their office. The cabbie then returns to MOO HQ to get Baby Bear, and drops him off at their office. The cabbie then gets Mama Bear and brings her back to MOO HQ, where she gets off and Papa Bear hops on. The cabbie then takes Papa Bear to their office and drops him off. Finally, the cabbie returns to MOO HQ to pick up Mama Bear and brings her to their office once again.
bring momma bear first
go back and get baby bear
tben bring momma bear back
drop her off
get poppa bear and bring him over
go back and get papa bear.
Here you go taxi driver:
1) take momma first
2) go back and take baby bear
3) leave baby bear and grab momma on the trip back
4) leave momma and grab poppa bear
5) go back and take momma
6) all three are together… you’re done :)
Cheers,
Fabrizio
Since Goldilocks will already be at their office no-one will be alone with another bear at that end of the trip. So, take Momma bear first, then Baby bear followed by Poppa bear.
Cab picks up Mama bear and drops her off at office. Cab returns to Moo HQ, picks up Papa Bear and takes him to office. Mama Bear gets into cab and goes back to Moo HQ. At Moo HQ, Baby Bear gets into cab and Mama stays at Moo. Cab drops Baby Bear off at office and returns to Moo HQ to get Mama and bring her to office.
Here goes the answer.
momma bear goes to the office. The cab returns empty. poppa bear goes to the office and the cab returns with momma. then baby bear takes the cab to the office and momma waits alone. the cab returns empty and finally momma bear gets to the office where poppa and baby bear are waiting.
Here are the steps to achieve this:
1) Take Momma bear first and drop her at the office.
2)Pick up baby bear from the HQ and drop him at the office and return to the HQ with Momma bear.
3)Drop Momma bear at the HQ and pick up Poppa bear and drop him at the office.
4) Now pick up Momma bear and drop her at the office.
Momma bear goes first… gets dropped off.
Cab goes back and picks up Poppa bear, leaving baby bear alone.
Poppa bear gets dropped off, Momma bear gets picked up.
Drop off Momma bear, pick up baby bear.
Drop off baby bear.
Go back and pick up Momma bear.
alternatively - if the first answer is wrong… you could take momma bear. then baby bear, taking momma bear back to the other end, then take poppa bear - go back empty handed and take momma bear to join her family.
1. Take Momma bear and leave her at the office. Return empty.
2. Take baby bear, leave at the office and take Momma bear back to MOO HQ.
3. Leave Momma bear at MOO HQ and take Poppa bear to the office. Leave him with baby bear and return empty.
4. Take Momma bear from MOO HQ to the office.
1. Take Momma Bear to their office.
2. Empty cab returns to Moo HQ.
3. Take Poppa Bear to their office.
4. Cab returns to Moo HQ carrying Momma Bear.
5. Take Baby Bear to their office.
6. Empty cab returns to Moo HQ.
7. Take Momma Bear to their office.
It doesn’t matter which order Poppa and Baby bear go, as long as Momma bear goes first and returns on the second trip back (step 4).
Take Mama Bear first. She’ll be with Goldilocks when the next one arrives, so she won’t be alone with either. Baby Bear next, so he’s not on the street alone, & then Papa Bear.
Take the momma bear first and come back.
Get the baby bear, take her across and take the momma bear back with you.
Leave the momma bear and take the poppa bear across and go back.
Get the momma bear, and take her back across.
The cab driver will have to take Momma bear first, then return for baby bear. Once baby bear has arrived, the cab driver should take momma bear back to MOO HQ, where she should get out of the car. The cabbie then takes Poppa bear to the office, leaves him with baby bear then returns one last time to pick up for Momma bear. Alternatively, the cabbie should just get a huge pot of honey and tell the bears that if they make up, they can eat all the honey they want (added bonus: blood sugar levels through roof - happy bears)
1. The cab takes momma bear to the office leaving poppa bear and baby bear alone.
2. The cab drives back empty and picks up baby bear to take to the office.
3. The cab drops off baby bear at the office but picks up momma bear so the two aren’t left alone.
4. The cab drops off momma bear at MooHQ and picks up poppa bear.
5. The cab drops off poppa bear at the office with baby bear.
6. The cab drives back one last time to MooHQ to pick up momma bear and brings her to the office.
By now, they are really really late for their appointment.
Let’s just say it’s going to be an expensive and unnecessary process.
So we have Poppa(P), Momma(M), and Baby(B) all at home, so Home = PMB
First, send Momma bear to work.
Home = PB , Work = M
Next, send Baby in the taxi.
Home = P, Taxi = B, Work = M
When the taxi arrives at work, Momma and Baby switch.
Home = P, Taxi = M, Work = B
The taxi drives back to home and then Momma and Papa switch.
Home = M, Taxi = P, Work = B
The taxi drops Poppa off at work.
Home = M, Work = PM
The taxi returns home to take Momma to work.
Home = no one, Work = PMB
Lucky (or unlucky) cab driver!
carry momma bear to the office
carry baby bear to the office
bring momma bear back to Moo HQ
carry poppa bear to the office
carry momma bear to the office again
So all three are at the office.
Momma from Moo to Office
Taxi back empty
Poppa from Moo to Office
Momma from Office to Moo
Baby from Moo to Office
Taxi back empty
Momma from Moo to Office.
First, have the cab take momma bear over to the office. Then, the cab will return to Moo and pick up baby bear. Drop off baby bear, but bring mom back. Pick up poppa, leaving momma behind, and bring him over to join baby bear. Then, go back and pick up momma bear to join the other two.
*I have to add that they should just make up and not leave baby bear alone at any point. He could have been kidnapped!
Take momma to office. Return empty. Take baby to office. Return with momma. Take poppa to office. Return empty. Take momma to office.
1. Take Momma bear from MOO HQ to the office.
2. Take the empty taxi back to MOO HQ and pick up Poppa bear.
3. Take Poppa bear from MOO HQ to the office.
4. But bundle Momma bear into the taxi as soon as Poppa bear hops out and take her back to MOO HQ.
5. Ask Momma bear to hop out at MOO HQ and swap her for baby bear.
6. Take baby bear to the office.
7. Return with an empty taxi to MOO HQ.
8. Collect a slightly bewildered but nonetheless happy Momma bear and take her to the office.
Happy days!
Take Momma bear over first and leave her there. Then take Baby bear over, but pick up Momma bear for the return trip. Then pick up Poppa bear, while dropping off Momma bear, and take Poppa bear over (Leaving Poppa and Baby together). Then go back, get Momma bear and drop her off too! All three together again!
Cabbie takes Momma bear, comes back, picks up Poppa bear. On arriving, he brings back Momma and then takes Baby over. He then returns and collects Momma bear. Everybody’s happy.
take momma bear then take baby bear then take poppa bear. they won’t be alone when they get there cuz goldilocks will be there.
Momma Bear goes first, cab drives back alone. Picks up Baby Bear, drives back with Momma Bear. Leaves Momma Bear, takes Papa Bear. Cab drives back alone, then picks up Momma Bear. Viola! In time for Goldilocks and their appointment!
Poppa bear and baby bear can ride in the cab together, and then Momma bear can ride in the cab. Or Momma bear can ride in the cab, then Poppa bear and baby bear can ride in the cab.
Point A is HQ, Point B is Goldilocks
First the Cab driver takes the baby bear to point B, then goes back and gets the momma bear. When momma bear arrives at point B, the baby bear goes back with the cab driver. Then the cab driver leaves baby bear at point A, and takes the poppa bear to point B. Now that poppa bear, and momma bear are at point B, the cab driver goes back and gets the baby bear.
Momma Bear gets in the cab and gets dropped off a the office. The cab returns and picks up baby bear. The cab goes to the office and drops off baby bear and picks up momma bear. It takes momma back to MOO HQ, drops her off and picks up poppa bear. drops poppa bear off at the office, then returns for momma bear.
Unfortunately for the cab driver, it was raining and now his cab smells like wet bear. And poppa bear is a lousy tipper.
Take Momma Bear first to the office, drive back to Moo with an empy cab, take Papa Bear to the office, Drive back to Moo with Momma Bear, Leave Mamma Bear back at Moo and take Baby Bear to the office, go back to Moo with an empty cab and pickup Momma Bear and take her to the office.
Nope that wasn’t right.
Trip 1: Take momma bear from MOO HQ to their office.
Trip 2: Drive the empty cab back to MOO HQ.
Trip 3: Pick up baby bear from MOO HQ, drive him to their office.
Trip 4: Put momma bear in the cab and drive her from their office to MOO HQ.
Trip 5: Let momma off at MOO HQ and pick up poppa bear.
Trip 6: Take poppa bear from MOO HQ to their office.
Trip 7: Drive the empty cab from their office to MOO HQ.
Trip 8: Pick up momma bear from MOO HQ, transport her to their office.
They are now all together at their office, momma bear was never alone with baby bear as the cab drove from one site to the other. Poppa bear was never alone with momma bear as the cab drove from one site to the other.
First, take Momma to the destination, leaving Poppa and Baby together. Next, go back and get Baby. When you drop off Baby, pick up Momma and take her back to the start, trading her for Poppa. Drop Poppa with Baby, then go back for Momma. Finally, drop Momma off with the rest of the family and collect your very large fare.
At first he should carry momma bear to the office and leave poppa bear and baby bear alone.
Then he should take baby bear to the office and drive back to MOO HQ with momma bear. After taking poppa bear to the office he has only to fetch momma bear from Moo HQ again and the three bears are together again.
The taxi must first take Momma bear, then baby bear, bringing Momma bear back on the return, picking up Poppa bear, leaving Momma bear at Moo HQ, delivering him to offices, then collecting Momma bear, until they are all reunited. They all lived Happily ever after. The End.
I think
:D
Take momma Bear to the office, go back, get baby bear, take him to the office, take momma bear back to MOO HQ, grab poppa bear, and take him to the office, then go back for momma bear and take her to the office.
Momma bear takes cab to office. Cab goes back for Baby, at office, Momma gets back in cab to go pick up Poppa. Momma gets out, Poppa gets in cab back to office. Poppa gets out of cab. Cab goes back to get Momma to bring her to office where Poppa and Baby bear are.
The taxi could take Momma Bear half way and drop her off.
Then come back and get Baby Bear, then go back for Poppa Bear. Then go get Momma Bear.
First take momma bear to the office, then take baby bear to the office, and bring back momma bear. Then take poppa bear to the office, and go back and get momma bear. Now poppa bear, is at the office, baby bear is at the office, and then the cab driver arrives back with momma bear.

this one is tricky
cabbie needs to take momma bear first, leaving poppa and baby alone at moo
then cabbie can take either poppa or baby because momma will be accompanied by goldilocks so family squabbles should be at a minimum.
We’ll simplify the bears to M, B, P for Mama, Baby, and Poppa respectively.
Leave B&P at headquarters, drop M@appointment
Taxi drops M off to join B&P
PURELY VISUAL VERSION
Left = Moo, middle =taxi, right =appt
MBP
PB ———(M)———–>
PB M
B P
M PB
tada! MPB
Take momma bear to the office. Leave her there.
Go back to MOO HQ and pick up baby bear. Bring him to the office. Bring momma bear back to MOO HQ. Bring poppa bear to the office. Leave him there. Go back to MOO HQ and pick up momma bear.
1) Driver takes Momma bear to their office.
2) Driver goes back to HQ and picks Baby bear. Upon reaching the office, the driver drops Baby bear and picks Momma bear up and drives to HQ.
3) Upon reaching HQ, driver drops Momma bear and picks Papa bear up and drives him to the office.
4) The driver drives back to HQ to pick Momma bear up and take her to the office.
- Bring momma bear to the office
- bring baby bear to the office and return with momma bear to Moo HQ
- bring poppa bear to the office
- bring momma bear back to the office again
1. Cabs drives with momma to the office. poppa and baby alone.
2. Back to HQ without passenger.
3. Driving with poppa to the office, leaving baby alone.
4. Back to HQ with momma, leaving poppa alone at the office.
5. To Office with baby, leaving momma alone at HQ.

Fertig ;-)
1. Take M to the office, leaving P and B at Moo HQ.
2. Take B to the office, leaving P alone at Moo HQ.
3. Bring M back from the office to Moo HQ, leaving B alone at the office.
4. Take P to the office, leaving M alone at Moo HQ.
5. Now, P and B should both be at the office. Drive back to Moo HQ to pick up M and bring her to the office.
Okay, so first of all the long-suffering cab driver should take Momma bear to the office. Then the cabbie needs to come back to Moo HQ and take Poppa bear to the office and leave him there, but because those two bears can’t, ahem, bear the sight of each other, the cab driver should bring Momma bear back to Moo HQ.
The cabbie then leaves Momma bear at Moo HQ, picks up Baby bear and takes him (and his grainy photos) to the office and Poppa bear.
Then finally, the driver should bring the empty cab back to Moo HQ to pick up Momma bear and the hefty fare for the seven-way journey (and a decent tip for putting up with the angry bears).
Momma = M, Poppa = P, Baby = B
Taxi takes M to office.
Returns to Moo and takes B to office, picks up M.
Drops off M back at Moo and picks up P.
Takes P to office.
Returns to Moo, picks up M and takes to office.
ta-daa!

1.Taxi brings Momma from side A to side B (in the mean time Poppa stays with Baby)
2. The Taxi comes back and brings the Baby from side A to side B
3. Then the Taxi takes on Momma from side B to side A and leaves the Baby alone
4. The the Taxi brings Poppa from side A to side B and leaves Momma on side A
5. At the end he returns to side A to take on Momma and bring her to side B (while Poppa is on side B with Baby)
… I hope I explained it properly…
The cab driver should do the following:
1.- Take Momma to destionation
2.- Come back alone
3.- Take Poppa to destination
4.- Come back with Momma
5.- Take Baby to destination
6.- Come back alone
7.- Take Momma to destination
