The series consists of two alternating patterns. Pattern 1 (1st, 3rd, 5th...): 8, 14, 11, 14, 18 (no simple rule). Pattern 2 (2nd, 4th, 6th...): 2, 6, ?, 6, 12. Looking at the whole sequence, it is likely two interleaved series or a specific logic. However, 9 fits if the logic is +3, -2 etc., but the sequence is poorly defined.

Each hour the monkey climbs 3ft and slips 2ft, gaining 1ft net. However, when it reaches the top, it doesn't slip back. After 17 hours it's at 17ft. In the 18th hour, it climbs 3ft to reach 20ft (the top) and is done - no slipping occurs at the top. The answer is 18 hours, not 20.
