Will and Grace have adjoining unfenced back yards and each has just adopted a new puppy. Will values a fence between their yards at $250 and Grace values a fence between their yards at $200. The cost of building the fence is $300, which will be split equally if they both agree to build the fence. Therefore, their payoff matrix is as follows. 
Will's dominant strategy in this game is to:
A. not build the fence.
B. help build the fence if he sees Grace building the fence.
C. build the fence.
