Wait, so Marilyn can't be sure that Shelly is the only one involved? That's like saying she can't be sure the Earth is round. What kind of a question is this?

This is a tough one, but I think the key is to remember that Marilyn doesn't need to be sure about the lack of other involvement. She's gotta focus on the logistics of the interview instead. Oh, and maybe she should bring some snacks, you know, to keep Shelly's energy up during the grilling.

Hmm, Marilyn needs to be careful not to assume Shelly is the only one involved. Could be a team effort, you know? Gotta keep an open mind, even if it's your 'primary suspect.'

Ah, the classic 'except' question. Marilyn should be reasonably sure of the interview's time, location, and subject matter, but not that no one else was involved. Tricky, but I got this!
