Yesish, but there's a specific reason she needed to do this before he could come in and eat.

Did his shirt reveal he answer to one of the questions? Was she part of the crew asking the questions? Did she have previous knowledge of what the questions would be? And didn’t want the answer revealed?

******************SPOILER

The man is entering a pub where a trivia game is about to take place, though he's just going to get dinner. He is wearing a shirt with the periodic table of the elements. One of the women running the game sees him and panics, because one of the rounds is questions about the elements! The organizing group have some extra t-shirts, so she asks him to wear one for as long as the game is going on, to cover up his spoilerish shirt.
