Cops can’t normally drink on the job, but the police chief says there’s one exception: when they’re working undercover in crime-filled nightclubs. Why? Because this type of work is extremely valuable.

This is a bit of an atypical question, but it ends up being relatively straightforward. The author is assuming there’s some reason that undercover cops need to drink at nightclubs, so we need an answer choice that provides this reason. The specific reason doesn’t matter, as long as it provides some explanation of why these undercover cops need to drink to do their jobs.

We need to know why cops need to drink, and (A) doesn’t reference alcohol at all. Why do the more experienced officers get to drink?

If being the only guy in the club drinking water would blow your cover, then drinking is necessary. Otherwise, the bad guys would figure you out, and you couldn’t do your job.

We need to know why cops need to drink, and (C) doesn’t reference alcohol at all. If there are more cops in clubs, why do they need to drink?

Even if most officers believe drinking in nightclubs is fine, this doesn’t tell us why it’s allowed in the first place. How does drinking help undercover officers do their jobs?

Even if the public is aware that this is an exception to the rule, this doesn’t tell us why it’s an exception. How does drinking help undercover officers do their jobs?
