R is second so that means we can’t be looking at Scenario 1 (R is 3rd) or Scenario 3 (Q is 2nd there), so we’re left with scenario 2, with S third and QV 4th and 5th. Here’s scenario 2:

Since R is second, the only spot left for T is first:

Almost everything is decided! The only uncertainty is whether R is Local or Non-Local.
Since T was the final deduction, we should first check if an answer mentions T, or the first call. D does! And it is CORRECT: T is first and local (rule 3).
None of the other answers are possible. It’s good to quickly skim them and check against the diagram though, in case of a diagramming error. This should only take 5-10 seconds at most.
