So the first sailor puts a condom on him, does him, pays him, second sailor puts second condom over first, does him, pays him, third sailor reverses outer condom which would have exposed her to the first sailor’s disease but she gets away uninfected because the whore can’t get it going a third time, so she doesn’t pay him and saves money at the same time. The puzzle doesn’t actually require that all three sailors get laid. Three is a tall order ja?
