Which option explains why the knight will be the first to tell his tale?

I'm sorry, you have not listed the options you've been provided by your teacher. Your answer cannot be answered if all information is not included in your post.

The options to this question are :

~ The innkeeper insists that he begin first

~ He arrived at the inn before anyone else

~ He holds the highest rank among all characters

~ The pilgrims drew lots and he drew the shortest straw

If you could help it would be greatly appreciared (:
