Answer:

C). Tamica's phone call with her mom.

As per the question, the event leading to a solution in the passage was 'Tamica's phone call with her mother.' Before the call, she was extremely tensed after missing her plane to the United States which was also the last plane for that night. She didn't know what to do as she had already left the place where she lived with other students and the city was not known to her.
