Typical Athenian Citizens Pass the Time Bickering over Everything

No sooner had the opening greetings been given than the citizens made up a game they called Apples to Apples in which they could practice their reasoning skills and disagree with each other over every conceivable point, such as whether an apple is the same thing as another apple.
Here we see Holdenopolus rejecting Hannah's argument that 501 jurors is superior to 601 jurors because the smaller number will ensure more of the jurors not only pay attention, but also understand the arguments that are being made.  Holdenopolus, seconded by Gusacrese, hidden from view behind Isaiahtiades, argued that not only 601 was a better number, but that even 1501 jurors would be best!
Olive, Sophia, and Maya demonstrated the strength of Hannah's point by paying no attention whatsoever to the debate!
