The Ethicist

New York Times and All Things Considered Ethicist Randy Cohen joins NPR's Steve Inskeep and listener Amy Meltzer from Ashland, Ore., to solve the problem of the mistake on the cake. Meltzer was overcharged for the wrong birthday cake, which ended up adding a real surprise to her surprise party. Randy Cohen explains who is ethically responsible for the overpayment.
