Read the passage below and answer the question that follows. Hannah stood backstage at the Cavendish Community Theatre, smoothing the velvet skirt of her stage costume. She had rehearsed her lines for months, yet her throat felt dry as sand. In ten minutes, the curtain would rise for opening night. Suddenly, her co-star Ethan whispered that the main prop—a brass lantern needed for Scene 2—was missing from the side table. Without the lantern, the play's climax would make no sense. Hannah closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and remembered seeing an old oil lamp in the green room backstage. What is the main conflict introduced in this story?

Hannah forgets her opening lines right before the curtain rises. A missing key prop threatens to ruin the climax of the play. Ethan refuses to go on stage because he dislikes his costume. The audience leaves early due to bad weather outside.

Correct Answer:

A missing key prop threatens to ruin the climax of the play.
