Scenario One: At the Gap

You are shopping at the Gap. A woman you don't know places a scarf underneath her jacket and leaves the store without paying for it.

Discuss the following:

  • How do you feel about this?

  • Do you think she has done anything unethical? Why or why not?

  • Is there a term or phrase to describe what she has done?
