The next morning, Jessica was woken by the bright morning sun.

Brian was cleaning the sand that had built up on the windowttice. When he heard movement from the bed, he put down his small brush and walked back. “Did I wake you?”
“Not really. What time is it?” Jessica shook her head. She reached for her phone on the nightstand, saw it was almost eight, and lost all desire to sleep. She got up, got ready, and went downstairs with
Brian.
The other three groups of guests were already waiting at the dining table.
They looked up to greet Jessica and Brian as they came down. Soon, the crew wheeled in a food cart with breakfast.
All four groups got the same breakfast–no more separate servings likest night.
After the eight of them finished eating, the live stream started officially. Raymond picked up the n and announced today’s activity rules.
“Today’s activity is easy. After a quiz, you can pack up and go out to explore. You can go anywhere you want,” Raymond said cheerfully.
“Yes! Finally, freedom.” Lillian cheered right away.
Brian’s eyes held a hint of a smile, too. He and Jessica hade for the trip in the first ce, so this n suited them perfectly.
The other guests were in good spirits, too, especially Vanessa and Spencer, that fake couple. Not having to stay in front of the cameras pretending to be loving was a relief for both of them.
‘Raymond, it can’t be as simple as you say. If we go out, where does the travel moneye from?” Chase, who’d been on several variety shows, got straight to the point.
Raymond kept smiling, i“/iGood question, Mr. Donovan. I’m sure everyone’s curious about that. And that’s what you’ll be working for in the uing game.
“The game is a tacit quiz. The total possible score is 350 points. Male and female guests will take turns answering the questions we’ve prepared. The total points you earn will be your group’s travel fund for today,”
Once Raymond finished announcing the rules, he waved for the crew to bring out two ckboards.
“In this quiz, there will be 10 questions for each gender. When one answers, their partner has to write the corresponding answer on the other ckboard.
“If your answers match exactly, you get 15 points. If they’re roughly the same, 10 points. And so on
7:24 pm P
for the rest,” Raymond exined in more detail.

Then, he looked at the guests. “Everyone, who wants to go first? If no one does, we’ll go back to drawing lots.”
Jessica and Brian exchanged a nce. They thought the game didn’t seem too hard and wanted to get it over with quickly so they could go out.
With that in mind, Brian stepped forward and said, “We’ll go first.”
Jessica also nodded at Raymond.
“Great. It seems Ms. Grant and Mr. Atkinson have a lot of confidence in each other. Now, could you two stand back to back?” Raymond was clearly happy someone had volunteered.
He directed them to take their positions, had the crew hand them markers, and started the questions. “First question. What is Ms. Grant’s favorite color? Mr. Atkinson, please answer.”
Without hesitation, Brian wrote “sky blue” on the ckboard. Jessica, standing with her back to him, quickly wrote the same answer.
The cameras dutifully showed their answers on the live stream.
Viewers had been watching the stream since early morning. Seeing how Jessica and Brian had answered almost in sync, they started saying they were totally shipping it.
Raymond checked and immediately announced they’d scored full points for the first question.
Then Raymond asked, “Second question. What is Mr. Atkinson’s least favorite food? Ms. Grant, please answer.”
Jessica didn’t hesitate to write “andouillette” on the board. She’d once made it for Brian on a whim, and he’d thrown up right away.
