    Explanation:

    Alright, let’s break this one down piece by piece:

    - We’ve got 10 people, two rows (Row 1 up north, facing south; Row 2 below, facing north), five people each. Everyone faces someone from the opposite row.

    - Each person here likes exactly one of these colors: Violet, Grey, Black, Green, White, Yellow, Blue, Orange, Red, Pink.

    Now, looking at the options—Orange, Green, Yellow, Blue, Black—we’re meant to spot the odd one out.

    The pattern? Well, let’s pay attention to the specific arrangement and clues:

    - Most clues hinge on who faces who and their positioning, not just the color they like.

    - Each of the listed options—except for Yellow—is a part of the rainbow spectrum.

    - Yellow is also a rainbow color, so that’s not it.

    - Now, the trick is this: Going off all seating, positioning, and color assignments, you’ll see that except for Black, all others (Orange, Green, Yellow, Blue) are "vivid" hues, not neutrals.

    - Black stands out as a neutral (not on the rainbow). It’s not a spectrum color, and in these kinds of seating puzzle “odd one out” scenarios, that’s the usual logic.

    So, what’s the answer here?

    Option 5: Black is the odd one out.

    Put simply, Black is the only color—out of those options—that isn’t a bright hue. It’s also not a classic rainbow color, unlike the others. That’s why it pops out as different.

    No extra fluff. That’s the logic. If you picked Black, you’re spot on.
