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

### Instruction:
At a birthday party, five friends - Jack, Kate, Tim, Anna, and Olivia - decide to exchange gifts. Each person brings a wrapped gift and places it in a circle on the floor. They agree to sit in a circle around the gifts and, when the music stops, each person will grab the gift closest to them. However, just before the music stops, the dog runs through the circle, scattering the gifts. The friends don't see this happen and assume the gifts are still in their original positions. What do they think when they grab the gifts? Provide a very brief response.

### Response:

When the music stops, each friend reaches for the gift nearest to them under the assumption that the gifts are in their original positions. Since all the friends placed their gifts in the circle before the commotion caused by the dog, they expect to pick up a gift that isn't the one they brought. They are likely unaware of the interruption caused by the dog and thus believe that the randomization of the gift selection remains fair and in line with the game's initial rule: no one should pick the gift they brought. Each individual anticipates receiving a surprise from someone else, and it never occurs to them that the gifts have been moved from the original configuration. They are operating under the assumption that the placement remained constant, leading to the expectation of equal and fair exchange among themselves.
