A Scorpion begged a Frog to carry him across the river because he could not swim.

The Frog hesitated for fearing being stung by the Scorpion.

The Scorpion said: “Do not worry, you know I won’t sting you since we will both get drowned if I do that”.

So the Frog carried the Scorpion across the river.

But in the middle of the river, it happened – the Frog got a sting.

Before he died, the Frog asked the Scorpion in disbelief: “I do not understand why you did this!?”

“Because I am not a game theorist and you are”, replied the Scorpion.
