Great teaser (I made it ) !
how do you know that the brothers weren't split up and never knew each other
Very easy. But good, cuz I could answer it!!
I doubt it. It's possible though. I never thought of that .
It doesn't matter even if they were. Consider this..
1.) Jerred is the Electricians brother.
Therefore, Jerred is not the electrician.
2.) Antoine has never met the electrician or the accountant.
Therefore, he is the nurse, having met neither of the other two.
3.) Antoine is the Nurse, and Jarred is not the Electrician, making him the Accountant.
4.) Antoine is the Nurse, and Jarred is the Accountant; therefore, Nicky is the Electrician.
