1 fills up first. the spigot is much winder than the tube so the glass will fill faster than it can drain.

who's to say it isn't a slow faucet?

If its not properly installed I will call a plumber to fix it.

That's assuming the valve is open all the way and that there's a bunch of water pressure behind the spigot. It should be entirely possible to create a very slow trickle by having a massive body of water behind the spigot (making it functionally infinite) but having only a small part of the entrance beneath the surface.
