You find yourself in a square 4’x4’ white room with no door. There is a metal grate on the floor and a light in the ceiling. One wall is glass, facing two other identical rooms in a triangular arrangement with a small enclosed area in between all of you.

Inside one of the other rooms, your oldest, closest friend, whoever that may be. In the other room, their spouse/SO, who you’ve never gotten along with. You might even hate them.

You are all conscious and can hear each other. A disembodied voice comes on and says you have to make a choice. Panels on the walls on both sides of you open and a button slides out of each one, labeled “Kill Left” and “Kill Right,” respectively. The voice explains that whoever you choose, their room will fill with water and they will drown. Once one of them is dead, you and the remaining person will be released into an 800 square foot studio apartment where you will be confined together for the rest of your natural lives. All of your needs for survival will be provided. Any food you request will be brought for you. The apartment is well appointed and comfortable, but there is no computer, television, telephone, or even a window to the outside. You have 90 seconds to choose. If you do not make a choice, all of you will die.

A kitchen timer set to 90 seconds drops onto the floor in between all of you and starting ticking down. The spouse/SO’s window turns opaque and now only you and your friend can hear each other.

Your friend begs you to kill them and let their spouse/SO live. They say they will never, ever forgive you if you kill their spouse/SO.

The timer keeps ticking down. What do you do?

  • I kill my friend.
  • I kill my friend’s spouse/SO.
  • I let the time run out and we all die.
