Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.

### Instruction:
Peter, Susan, and Lucy were playing hide-and-seek in their house. Peter hid in the closet, Susan hid behind the curtains, and Lucy hid under the bed. Their mother came home with a new purple rug for the living room. She placed it in the center of the room and left to prepare dinner. Meanwhile, their father arrived and moved the purple rug to the hallway because he thought it would look better there. When the children finished playing hide-and-seek, what will they think happened to the purple rug?

Provide a very brief response.

### Response:

The children might be confused about the location of the purple rug since they were hiding when their mother placed it in the living room and did not see her do this. Their father moved the rug to the hallway without them noticing. Since they did not see the rug in the living room at all, they may think that their father brought the rug and placed it in the hallway to begin with. If they are told or remember that their mother brought a rug but do not see it in the living room, they may wonder where it is or assume it was moved. If they see the rug in the hallway, they might simply think it was meant to be there without knowing it was ever in the living room.
