Folks, welcome to today's Queens. Let's go and get started. So first thing I'm noticing when I'm looking at today's grid is our giveaway cell here in blue. Of course, what a giveaway cell means is that if there's only one available cell for a color region, you know that has to be the queen for that color region. So this has to be a blue queen. We'll place our queen, knock out the rest of the column since 1 queen per column, the rest of the row since 1 queen perot and all surrounding cells given No 2 Queens can touch each other. Just one option left in brown, place our queen, take care of the column and the row and the surrounding cells. Alright, next thing I'm noticing when I look at these two columns, there's two colors that only exist in these two columns at this point, that's going to be purple and yellow. So anything not purple or yellow in these two columns, let's eliminate which is all of these. And similarly, when I look at these two, there's two colors in these two columns that's going to be orange and Gray, which means the Queens for these two columns have to be orange and Gray. So anything orange or Gray outside these two columns I know I can eliminate, which is all of these. All right, now when I look at these two rows, there's two colors that only exist in these two rows, yellow and red. So anything not yellow or red and these two rows, I know it can eliminate which just all of those. And let's see what we can find next. So when I look at this row, every available option is Gray, which means the queen for this row has to be Gray. So anything that's great that's not in this row, let's illuminate which is all of these. Only one option left in this right this point, lace, our queen take care of the column and the row and the surrounding cells. Just one option left and Gray take care of the column, row and surrounding cells. Just one option left in this column. Lace our queen. Take care of the row. Column surrounding cells look good. Just one option left in purple. Take care of the column. Just one option left in yellow. Take care of the row. And finally, just one option left and red. And that's all for today's Queens. Thanks for watching.
