Explanation:

- S1 describes a lively room filled with conversation after people take their places.

- P (S2): Explains how closely seated people adapt by leaning forward, making it relevant right after S1’s mention of people taking their places.

- S (S3): Provides spatial context by explaining the arrangement of the furniture; it fits well before S4 as it explains why people are leaning or moving.

- S4 shows excitement and energy, aligning with both P and S settings.

- R: Introduces bathroom activity, unrelated to seating or mingling.

- Q: Describes initial mingling, which contradicts the time flow after S1.
