Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.

### Instruction:
At a family gathering, Aunt Susan brings a tray of 12 cupcakes and places them on the dining table. Uncle Jack secretly eats 3 cupcakes and hides the evidence in the trash can. Cousin Emma sees this and decides to bake 3 more cupcakes to replace the eaten ones. She places the new cupcakes on the tray before anyone else notices. What does Aunt Susan think happened to the cupcakes, and what do Uncle Jack and Cousin Emma know about the changes?

Provide a brief response.

### Response:
gpt
Aunt Susan believes nothing has happened to her cupcakes because she placed 12 on the table, and after Cousin Emma baked and added 3 more to replace the eaten ones, there are still 12 present. She does not have any reason to suspect that anything has happened to them. 

Uncle Jack knows that he ate 3 cupcakes and that there should have been only 9 left on the tray had no one else interfered. However, he may not be aware that Emma baked 3 more unless he saw her do it or noticed the number had been replenished.

Cousin Emma is aware that Uncle Jack ate 3 cupcakes, which she observed, and she knows that she baked and added 3 more to the tray. She understands the full situation regarding the changes in the number of cupcakes on the tray. Emma is the only one who knows everything that has happened with the cupcakes.
