This game is discussed in our Podcast: LSAT Podcast Episode 31: The September 2019 LSAT Logic Games Section
Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: https://forum.powerscore.com/lsat/viewtopic.php?t=31312)
The correct answer choice is (B).
The question is a Global, Must Be True and thus it will hopefully trade on one of the inferences made during the setup. In any even, there is no way to know before looking at the answer choices, so you should dive into those immediately.
Answer choice (A): As we determined during the discussion of Tabitha's arrangement, it must contain at least one L and so this answer is incorrect.
Answer choice (B): This is the correct answer choice. Tabitha's arrangement must be H, G, L, and then the choice of G or L. Thus, no R is in the arrangement.
Answer choice (C): As we determined during the discussion of Solomon's arrangement, it could contain one L and so this answer is incorrect.
Answer choice (D): As we determined during the discussion of Will's arrangement, it could contain one H and so this answer is incorrect.
Answer choice (E): As we determined during the discussion of Will's arrangement, it could contain one R and so this answer is incorrect.
