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

### Instruction:
Three friends, Sam, Alex, and Kim, go on a hike together. They come across a fork in the path with two options: left leads to a waterfall, and right leads to a scenic overlook. Sam suggests going left, but then receives a phone call and steps away from the group. While Sam is gone, Alex and Kim decide to take the right path instead. When Sam returns, which direction does he believe the group has chosen?

Provide a very brief response.

### Response:

Sam initially suggested going left towards the waterfall before stepping away to take a phone call. Unless Sam was informed by Alex and Kim of their decision to take the right path while he was away, he would still believe that the group is taking the left path towards the waterfall. This is because Sam did not witness the discussion and subsequent decision to go right towards the scenic overlook, and he would have no reason to think that the plan had changed during his absence unless told otherwise.
