How Could Dillon Have Seen David Cheating? **Spoiler Alert**


David was behind Dillon and to his right. For him to see David cheating, he would have had to turn almost completely around and see him without making it obvious. But since Dillon was "one of them" and David was a newcomer, they probably would have taken his word even though it seems completely implausible for him to have seen him cheating.

On top of that, don't you think Dillon would have said something immediately after the teacher brought it up to the class? I guess none of them thought of that.

He couldn't. The other students should have had David and Dillon tell their stories with the other one out of the room. Dillon's story would have fallen apart right away.

Well, he figured he could say that thinking that his friends in the class would believe his ass. You made that point yourself. I think the reason Dillon didn't bring it up right away when the teacher mentioned it was he might not have thought of it and remember, he only does it after David comes to him and tells him privately he saw him cheat. If David hadn't of done that, maybe Dillon wouldn't have tried to pass the blame onto him.
