You could make it so each segment of the circle has an id associated with it. Each segment could live under a parent with a script attached that takes an id, and calls open() on whichever child has that id. In code, that might look like:

var segments = {}

func _ready():
    for c in get_children():
        if "id" in c:
            segments[c.id] = c

func open_segment(id):
    segments[id].open()

func open_rand_segment():
    var i = rand_range(0, segments.size())
    open_segment(segments.keys()[i])

Of course, this varies greatly depending on implementation details.
