OK, #1 flows into #2 and #3. #3 can't flow into #4 because the tube is blocked, so #4 will never get a drop of water in it. The other drain out of #3 into #5 is also blocked. #5 will never get water in it.
#2 is blocked from draining into #6, so no water will ever get in #6. #2 can drain into #7, but there's a hole in the bottom of #7, so it will never fill.
That leaves cups #2 and #3, and of course, #1. Since the water flowing out of #1 into #2 and #7 will be draining out on the floor, none of them will fill to the top. The outlet from #1 to #3 is lower than the outlet from #1 to #2, so #3 SHOULD fill first, since #2 is draining into a bottomless cup (#7).
So, my answer is #3. Did I figure it out? Or am I to be counted among the great unwashed 99%? LOL! (It makes sense to me, but a lot of things make sense to me that other people say are crazy, so who knows?)

Yes, and 3 will be full before water runs from 1 to 2 because the elevation of the outlet is higher than the line going to 3. Therefore water does not get to 2 until 1 is full. And you're correct, 2 can never fill because 7 has a hole in the bottom.

Yay! I was afraid I'd missed some very obvious "trick," with the caption "99% will fail."

A woman from Los Angeles who was a tree hugger, a liberal Democrat, and an
anti-hunter, purchased a piece of timberland near Colville , WA ..
There was a large tree on one of the highest points in the tract. She
wanted a good view of the natural splendor of her land, so she started to
climb the big tree. As she neared the top she encountered a spotted owl
that attacked her. In her haste to escape, the woman slid down the tree to
the ground and got many splinters in her crotch.
In considerable pain, she hurried to a local ER to see a doctor. She told
him she was an environmentalist, a democrat, and an anti-hunter and how
she came to get all the splinters. The doctor listened to her story with
great patience and then told her to go wait in the examining room and he
would see if he could help her.
She sat and waited three hours before the doctor reappeared. The angry
woman demanded,"What took you so long?" He smiled and then told her, "Well,
I had to get permits from the Environmental Protection Agency, the Forest
Service, and the Bureau of Land Management before I could remove old-growth
timber from a "recreational area" so close to a waste treatment facility.

I resemble that remark .
Russian waiting in ATM line: This is effed up, I'm leaving to go kill Putin.
Two hours pass and he returns to the line...
His friend asks if he did it.
Are you kidding me? That line is even longer.

The first time I saw this I laughed until I almost cried. A neighbor I used to help fed cattle until he was almost 80. He chain smoked non filtered camels.

OK, I looked again. It's still blocked at the bottom. #5 will still never get any water.

I can't find it now, but seems like #3 was blocking #4 at the #3 outlet to #4.
#3 is blocked from filling #5 at the #5 inlet (I think I recall that).
On the left side cups, that only leaves #3 that can fill at all from #1. On the right side cups, #6 is blocked from #2, and #7 has a hole in the bottom, so only #2 can hold water. #2 can't begin filling until after #3 is full and #1 is up to a level to flow to #2. #2 will never fill.
So, #3 is the first one to fill. It is also the only one that will ever fill (until somebody calls a plumber). In fact, the problem may have been easier to solve if the question had been "Which cup is the only one that can fill to the top?".
You are absolutely right, I missed that.
