Problem is they got the wrong jacket and had to come up with an explanation for why the receipt for that particular jacket shows it was taken to the dry cleaners on 01/26.
This is the part I'm not sure about. I know that A jacket went to the cleaner's on 1/26. A "sport jacket" went on 2/4. How can we know if they're the same jacket, or if two different jackets, which is which?
Maybe the obvious confusion will be enough! I, however, have a real problem with the "sport jacket" description. I would never think to call that green jacket a "sport jacket." Maybe it's just a Florida vs. California dialect kind of thing, but here, sports jackets are what men wear over a shirt to go out to dinner. That green jacket would be just a "jacket." Maybe even a "coat."
But if it isn't the same jacket, where's the other jacket?

A true sport jacket should cost more to clean than a windbreaker.

I, however, have a real problem with the "sport jacket" description. I agree. If it was just someone on the street, it might be understandable --- people who do sport wear warm-up jackets --- but it was a dry cleaner! They would use the correct terminology.
