Question: If you tie two pendulums A and B from a lightly hanging rope from the ceiling, and push pendulum A

If you tie two pendulums "A" and "B" from a lightly hanging rope from the ceiling, and push pendulum "A", which one is likely to occur?
The energy would equally split between two pendulum "A" and "B", and both will begin oscillating simultaneously.
pendulum "B" would not oscillate, until an external force is applied to it.
pendulum "A" would oscillate faster than pendulum "B"
Pendulum "A" would gradually stop oscillation, and pendulum "B" would begin oscillating
