Five Of The Same

The voice

I'm the bread truck driver. I took a wrong turn and I'm stuck here politely.

The scenario

I came down a long dirt drive looking for a dairy that turned out not to exist. There was a metal shed, shop lights on inside, five men working. The gate behind me clicked closed. I just wanted directions back to the highway.

How constrained voices work

Every 5Qs puzzle is built around a constrained voice. The voice knows the answer but can only communicate within a specific perspective — a doorman new to the city, a dog who only thinks in smell and crunch, an empty lot that has never been occupied before. The voice will not name the answer outright. The fun is figuring out what to ask so that the lens reveals enough for you to put a name on what the voice is describing.
