Question

A police officer in plainclothes is eating lunch in a restaurant on his day off. He is not noticed by two patrol officers sitting at the counter having coffee. The uniformed patrol officers get up and leave without paying or even leaving a tip. The owner of the coffee shop is overheard just before the officers leave without paying, saying that he is grateful the police presence remains strong in this rough part of town.

When the plainclothes officer left the diner that day, he made sure the waitress knew that his tip included the coffee and tip for the other officers. According to the core beliefs of the police culture, what is the most logical reason that he did this?
a. Patrol work is the pits.
b. Members of the public are unreasonable.
c. Loyalty above everything.
d. Police deserve a break.
