However, his cousin Jay demanded that Andy take him out on the neighbor’s boat. Andy initially refused, but Jay threatened to report prior instances in which Andy went “joyboating” without the neighbor’s permission. Afraid of getting in trouble with his parents or the authorities, Andy gave in and took Jay out on the neighbor’s boat.
