When Maxi hears about the kidnapping plot, whom does he call?

• A. The Police Commissioner
• B. Mayor Cudd
• C. Mr. Poesy
• D. The Pea-Tack Squad

Answer: (A)

The main idea is that serious crime like a kidnapping is handled by the city’s law enforcement, so the natural step is to contact the top police official who can coordinate the response. Maxi reaches out to the Police Commissioner because this role has the authority and resources to investigate, deploy officers, and protect people involved. In contrast, a mayor deals with policy and public affairs, not the on-the-ground police response; Mr. Poesy isn’t a law-enforcement figure, and the Pea-Tack Squad isn’t the appropriate authority to handle a kidnapping situation. So calling the Police Commissioner is the most sensible and effective choice for dealing with the threat.
