Astrid

Thanks to Craig Smorynski. He writes:` "Astrid is a French crime drama about a severely autistic file clerk named Astrid whose photographic memory and puzzle solving ability are put to good use by a detective Raphaelle who takes her on as a partner. Aside from the drama, you should like the first episode as it features the 9 dots problem about using only 4 lines to connect 9 points arranged in 3 rows of 3 dots. There is the obvious solution consisting of 4 lines connecting opposite points, but apparently that is not allowed because the problem was improperly posed. The trickier solution consists of a piecewise linear "curve" constructed of the 4 lines and is revealed towards the end."
