You being hood winked how did you know it was a door?

• A. Because the door was marked with a sign
• B. By first meeting with resistance and afterwards gaining admission
• C. Because a brother whispered to you
• D. Because the door opened easily

Answer: (B)

When someone is hoodwinked, you identify the doorway not by sight but through the ritual interaction at the threshold. In lodge procedure, a guard or messenger tests you at the door with a challenge or barrier—you must respond properly to gain admission. Feeling that initial resistance and then being admitted confirms you’ve met the threshold, which is how you know you’ve reached a door in this context.

This is why the option describing first meeting resistance and then gaining admission is the best fit: it reflects the actual experiential cue of the door being guarded and then opened after the proper response. The other scenarios rely on visual cues, a whispered cue, or no impediment at all, which don’t align with the hoodwinked interaction where the test at the door defines the moment.
