Option A, the bargaining stage, is where I'd expect to see questions asked. Gotta get all the details ironed out, you know?

D, the testing stage, makes the most sense to me. That's when you ask questions to verify your understanding and fill any gaps.

I'd go with option C. The opening stage is when you gather information and try to understand the other party's needs and interests.

I believe questions could also be asked in the testing stage to clarify any uncertainties.

I agree with Effie, it makes sense to gather missing information at the beginning.
