[Puzzle 014]
[Sometimes, in the wake of a foundation-shattering event, all anyone can do is stare at what remains.
That is not true for Luke this time, and hasn't been in the entire two weeks since all of himself came rushing back. All things considered, he's been as upbeat and energetic as ever. Helpful, too - so many others seemed devastated in the aftermath, he felt and still feels like he ought to make up for it somehow.
The first thing he does with the free time in his Monday is go to the bakery and get a dozen of something. Donuts or cupcakes or similar things, anything sweet and delicious. Those treats are going to people he knows, if he can find them, especially the ones that haven't shown their faces of late.
Then it's time for the real substance of his day.
A puzzle.
He handwrites it out first, then reads it out for the benefit of anyone stymied on the writing front.]
A family gathers in a room for a party. In this family, there is a mother, a father, a son, a daughter, a brother, a sister, an auntie, an uncle, a niece, a nephew, and 2 cousins. However, there are only 4 people in the room. What are their relations to each other?

You're still a little bit off. You can't use anyone outside the room as part of their relationships.

[There is clearly a miscommunication between the two of them but pardon her while she gives it another shot.]
The Mom is the Sister and the Aunt and the Dad is the Brother and the Uncle. Mom has the daughter and Dad has the son! Therefore, the son and daughter are the cousins.
Third times a charm?

Yep! That sure looks like the right solution to me.
