>>> Me thinks it should be Q/less with perhaps 2 frames of open brood & one of capped brood along with pollen & honey stores.
I'm thinking the receiving hive should be queenright, but I'm just a novis at this and could be mistaken. The rest is true so as to attract the bees that are trapped out of the building. Good luck and watch out for that first step. Could be a big one.
