Oh, sorry! While I’ve been following Luann for years and usually read the top (first) comments, I don’t spend enough time to follow the discussion. I might well go back and read more, thanks for the tip!
What if Piro knows who the thief is? Maybe he tried to take the blame for breaking into the vending machine not to protect Bernice, but to protect the real culprit who would’ve been caught on tape? It could be that Piro’s kiss was a way of hiding his real motivation for speaking up. I imagine Bernice’s punishment for having Piro in her room after hours is nothing compared to stealing. It just doesn’t make sense that he’d try to take the fall for a serious crime to protect Bernice from a minor infraction.
