Inferring Probability from Model Output

A language model is generating the next word for the phrase 'The dog is very...'. The model considers five potential words: 'friendly', 'big', 'running', 'brown', and 'asleep'. The final word chosen and output by the model is 'friendly'. If the model uses a selection method where only the single candidate with the highest probability score is chosen and all other candidates are discarded, what can you conclude about the probability score of 'friendly' in relation to the other four words?
