The Envelope With the Answer
The quiz show studio, forty minutes before broadcast. The sealed envelope with the final question and its answer always travels from the adjudicator to the gallery, and from there to the desk, unopened. Today it reached the gallery at half past seven. At ten past eight it was still in the drawer, the seal untouched, and inside there was a blank sheet. The finalist has been in the building since six.
Exactly 2 of the 7 are lying
