The group runs inside the house, Cassandra grabs the cloth and instructions and follows suit. The guests are now in the living room and are gathered around Cassandra looking at the instructions.
"We should split up to find everything." Jack recommends.
"Yeah I like that idea, how many of us are left?" Cassandra asks as she starts counting. "Looks like there are 10 left."
"Okay, there are 5 locations and 5 ingredients. Split into groups of 2 and go to a room on this map. And remember, look everywhere, they might not be in the same spot anymore." James says.
The guests split into groups of 2. It's Zeke and Alice, Cassandra and James, Sally and Jack, Alex and Kevin, and Sarah and Joseph. All groups go to the second floor and go to different rooms. All rooms have a box in them, each with a lock, but they either have a key, code, or a word on it.
"Everyone! Take the boxes to the hallway!" Sally shouts through the door. Soon every box is in front of the door and everyone is standing by their room. Jack steps into his room and sees a note in the pale orange bed.
"Hey, I might've found what to do." He says as he walks out into the hall and shows everyone the note.
"As you've noticed, these boxes and what they're labeled don't match up. It's your job to figure that out. Nothing other than just try them."
Already, everyone is running around trying to test every code.
"Guys! Wait! What if we wrote down the codes and checked them off as we use them?" Cassandra suggests.
"Sal, bring us a pen and paper, please." Kevin orders Sal. He nods and goes downstairs. A few moments later he comes back up with a pen and paper and hands it to James. James starts to write down the codes with numbers and gives them to Cassandra to figure out. Meanwhile, Kevin takes the keys and starts trying to use them to unlock the boxes with them. Cassandra gets all of the boxes with number locks open and tells Joseph, Alice and Zeke to take them downstairs. Kevin gets 2 boxes open with the keys and that leaves 1 box with a letter code. Everyone goes downstairs with the ingredients after the boxes are open. They set everything on the table in the Kitchen. Which is somehow spotless, definitely an upgrade since the first time they were in there.
