Haha, good luck trying to refuse a 'very important' request from the customer. I'd love to see the look on their face if the team tried that!

I disagree, we should refuse it because we are in the middle of the Sprint.

Definitely not D! Refusing a request from the customer is just asking for trouble. The team should be flexible and work with the Product Owner to make it happen.

Hmm, I'm torn between A and C. The Scrum Master or the Product Owner should be the ones handling this request, not the Development Team.

Option C is the way to go. The Product Owner is the one who manages the product backlog, not the Development Team.
