Narrator: Four friends stand in a dimly lit stone chamber. They have been participating in the school’s 'Great Escape Mystery Night.' Before them is a heavy oak door with no handle. On the wall beside the door, there are four glowing levers: Red, Blue, Green, and Yellow. Below the levers is a plaque with ancient-looking writing.

Sam: (Excitedly) This is it! The final room. If we get through this, we win the golden trophies! I’m just going to pull the red one. Red means go, right?

Leo: (Quickly) Stop! Don’t touch anything yet, Sam. Remember what the guide said? If we make one mistake, the timer speeds up, and we lose half our points. We have to use logic.

Maya: (Stepping closer to the plaque) Leo is right. Look, there is a riddle here. It says: 'To find the path and exit the maze, look at the colors through a careful haze. Only one sequence will set you free; listen to the clues, and you shall see.'

Chloe: (Softly) Read the clues, Maya. My notebook is ready. I’ll write down everything we know.

Maya: Clue number one: 'The Red lever is never the first in line.'

Sam: Okay, so not Red. Let's try Yellow then!

Leo: Hold on, Sam. We need all the clues before we make a move. Maya, what’s the next one?

Maya: Clue number two: 'The Green lever must be pulled immediately after the Blue lever.'

Chloe: (Writing) So Blue and Green are a pair. They have to stay together. B-G. Got it.

Maya: Clue number three: 'The Yellow lever is either the very first one you pull or the very last.'

Sam: This is harder than the math test we had on Tuesday. So, is Yellow first or last? And where do the others go?

Leo: Let’s think this through. We have four spots. If Yellow is first, that leaves three spots for Red, Blue, and Green. But the second clue says Blue and Green must be together. That means they could be in spots two and three, or three and four.

Chloe: Wait, if Blue and Green are in spots two and three, then Red would have to be last. If Blue and Green are in spots three and four, Red would have to be second.

Maya: But there’s a fourth clue! It was hidden at the very bottom in tiny letters. It says: 'The Red lever is pulled third.'

Sam: Aha! That changes everything! If Red is third, then where does everyone else go?

Leo: Okay, let’s re-evaluate. If Red is third, then Yellow cannot be first. Because if Yellow were first, we would have Yellow in spot one, and Red in spot three. That would leave spots two and four for Blue and Green. But Blue and Green have to be pulled one right after the other!

Chloe: (Nodding) Leo is right. If Blue and Green are together, they need two spots side-by-side. Spot one and two are side-by-side. Spot three is already taken by Red. That means Blue and Green must be spots one and two!

Sam: So the order is Blue, Green, Red, and... what’s left?

Maya: Yellow! And the third clue said Yellow is either first or last. Since it can’t be first because Blue is there, it must be last!

Leo: Let’s double-check the rules. One: Red is never first. (Looking at the notes) Our Red is third. Check! Two: Green is immediately after Blue. Our sequence is Blue then Green. Check! Three: Yellow is first or last. Our Yellow is last. Check! Four: Red is third. Check!

Sam: We did it! I’m pulling them! Blue... Green... Red... and Yellow!

Narrator: As Sam pulls the final lever, a loud click echoes through the room. The heavy oak door slowly swings open, revealing the bright hallway of the school and a row of shining golden trophies. The team cheers and high-fives as they walk through the exit together.

Maya: Great job, team. We didn't even need to guess.

Chloe: Logic is better than guessing any day.

Leo: And teamwork is the best logic of all.
