You see a house with two doors. One door leads to certain death and the other door leads to freedom. There are two guards, one in front of each door. One guard always tells the truth and the other always lies. You don't know which guard is in front of which door. You can ask one guard one question to determine which door leads to freedom. What question do you ask?
"If I ask the other guard which door leads to freedom, what would they say?"
Regardless of which guard you ask, you'd learn which door NOT to enter, because both answers would be lies. That's because, regardless of who you ask first, the response would be filtered through the lens of the lying guard.
