Is there a way to pipe the median answer to a rank order survey?

I'm trying to have people rank order a series of pictures, and I've figured out how to pipe their top and bottom choice, but is there a way to pipe the middle (median) choice? Or is there a better way around that without using the rank order question?

Looks like Carry Forward Choices lets you use logic based on "Items Responses" -- so the set up below will display the 3rd-ranked thing from Q1. Kind of hacky, but you could use this as a question that doesn't require response to display what you want (assuming the median position will be known in advance for you to specify in the UI logic). ! !

Ok cool, so will the carry forward pull in what they specifically ranked it as? Or just where it originally landed in the initial question?

It's their rank/response, not the original position

So they are likely to shuffle the rank for each option and it is likely based off this survey that VERY few people will have the same median answer.

Oh I should also mention, I need the piped median to be a picture as well!
