Welcome to the town of Palmer Lakes, officer. It's a sleepy place:
we've never quite seen something like this before... Sorry you had
to come out for such a tragedy. But where are my manners? Let's
head over to the double_r_diner and get some cherry pie. Plus,
they make a damn fine coffee!

> As with all of the clues here, you'll have to identify an API
> endpoint and the correctly formatted URL and HTTP request verb
> to access the next clue.
>
> You can use HTTParty, Postman, or `curl url:port --include` to
> inspect the HTTP response's header AND body.
>
> Let's start by getting "/double_r_diner"...
