Nine is the answer. But the two people above who wrote that aren't that smart. They googled the answer.

It doesn't say before 1 AM. So I'm going with any hour because "it's 5 o'clock somewhere".

My watch is never wrong: it just says 'now'.

How could you possibly know the two that got the answer before you googled the solution?

I suggest 9 O'clock as well.

How could it possibly be on the quarter hour?

Here's one I could never figure out:
Three guys rent a hotel room for $30.00.
Each one hands the desk clerk $10.00.
Later, the desk clerk realizes the room is actually only $25.00, so he asks the bellhop to take $5.00 up to the room to reimburse the three guys.
The bellhop figures three guys can't evenly split $5.00, so he goes to the room and gives them each $1.00 refund, and keeps $2.00 for himself.
So..... The three guys end up paying $9.00 each for the room ($10 minus $1 refund.)
Three times nine is $27.00 and the bellhop has $2.00.
That comes out to a total of $29.00.
Where's the other dollar?

5:08 That's a good one, but there isn't another dollar. It's semantics and very confusing. The three guys actually paid $27 for a $25 room (North SBY no doubt) and the bellhop kept the $2 difference.
