Playmobil Detectives: Queen of the Nile-8

That night, whilst Claire and Eliza were walking home from the karaoke night, Claire's phone rang. Clumsily taking out her phone, Claire discovered that she didn't know the person calling her. 

"Andie Anderson?" exclaimed Claire, "Who's that?" Only then, did she suddenly realise that in the midst of singing and chatting, Claire and Tiffany's phones got switched around, so they both had each others phone now. 

"OMG! What a bother!" sighed Claire, "Seriously? We have the exact same model of mobile phone and the exact same limited edition dazzling pink rhinestone cover! What a coincidence!" 

"Well, that means you share the same taste with Tiffany!" teased Eliza. 

"Ew! Please don't!" responded Claire, annoyed, "Anyone but her!" 


"Whatever! You still have to get your phone back asap!" replied Eliza, "Else if Tom calls us, our identity as secret spies will be discovered!" 

At the conclusion of Eliza's speech, Claire phoned her brother, asking him to go and fetch her phone for her at Tiffany's place on the following morning. "I need to get my phone back asap, but Tiffany's probably asleep already. So....yeah! Tomorrow morning will do! Cheers!" 

The following morning, Shaun arrived at the front porch of Tiffany's villa as promised and he rang the bell. Astonishingly, Tiffany came to answer the door a few seconds later. Nevertheless, when she opened the door and saw Shaun, she displayed no sign of recognition.

"Hi Tiffany!" said Shaun awkwardly, "I...um....I'm Claire's brother, and um...last night, you and Claire's phones got switched around, so Claire asked to me come and switch it back."

"Pray, enter and have a seat first," replied Tiffany courteously.

After Shaun has entered Tiffany's living room, the latter asked, "I beg your pardon, I didn't hear very clearly what you said got switched last night!"

"You and Claire's phones....." replied Shaun.

"Our.....phones?"

Shaun then took out Tiffany's phone and laid it out on the tea table. Only then, did Tiffany show some recognition. "Ah! I see! Pray, wait a moment, I will retrieve it from my bed-chamber."

Why is Tiffany acting so abnormally?
