At a family gathering, Alice, Brian, and Claire decide to play hide-and-seek. Alice is chosen as the seeker, so she closes her eyes and counts while Brian and Claire go to hide. Brian hides behind the couch, and Claire hides under the dining table. While Alice is still counting, Brian decides to change hiding spots and moves to the laundry room. Unaware of this, Claire also changes her spot and hides behind the same couch where Brian was initially hiding. When Alice finishes counting and starts searching for them, what will be her thought process when finding Brian and Claire? Respond briefly.
Alice, unaware of the changes in hiding spots, will likely begin her search based on her knowledge of the house and any potential good hiding spots. Starting with the common areas, she may notice the disrupted setting near the couch where Brian was initially hiding. If there are clues like cushions being out of place or a slight noise, she might investigate the area around the couch.

Coming across Claire now hiding behind the couch, Alice might initially think she found Brian, since she may deduce that this was his hiding spot from any disturbances or clues left behind when he moved.

After finding Claire, Alice will need to reassess. She knows Brian is still at large, so she'll continue her search moving through the house. Opening doors and checking other common hiding spots, she eventually makes her way to the laundry room. Encountering Brian there, she might be surprised as it wasn't where she expected to find him, considering the initial evidence suggested he hid behind the couch.

The process involves Alice analyzing each potential hideout as she encounters it, reevaluating her search pattern based on her findings, and considering the most probable hiding spots given what she believes about where Brian and Claire chose to hide.
