I'm surprised the answer isn't 'E) Fran just wants to spy on Lucas and make sure he's not slacking off while he's on vacation.' That's probably the most realistic option.

D) Quality control? More like 'Quality time off' amirite? Haha, but seriously, C) Disparate treatment is the way to go here.

I'm going with C) Disparate treatment. The manager is holding Lucas to a different standard because of his religion, which is not cool.

B) Religious persecution in the workforce seems like the best answer to me. The manager is singling out Lucas because of his religion, which is unacceptable.
