Somebody has stolen jewelry at Laura’s party. Nobody has seen who did it. Lara's friends are making deductions about the theft.

Sam: It [need|must|should] have been the guy from pizza delivery! I’m absolutely sure it was him. He acted strangely, and he was wandering around the house for no reason. He [might|would|should] have taken the jewelry when everyone was having fun.

Angie: It [shouldn't|must|couldn't] have been the pizza guy. He left the house quite soon, and Lara showed us the jewelry after that. It [could|needn't|had] have been Christy; she seemed very jealous of the golden necklace.

Sam: I don’t think it’s possible. I spent a lot of time with Christy at the party; she [couldn't|shouldn't|won't] have done it without being noticed. And she’s got lots of nice jewelry herself, so she didn't [must|have to|had to] steal anything from her friend.

Angie: But what if you’re lying to protect your girlfriend?

Sam: You [should|won't|shouldn't] have said that! Oh, wait… And what about you? You saw the jewelry; you knew where it was; you definitely [can't|might|mustn't] have stolen the pieces!

Angie: Oh, no! I’d better go!
