The patrol leader shows the boys a picture depicting some complicated scene. After hiding it, he asks several questions. Some of them concern objects actually shown in the picture. But others concern things that were not in the picture at all. For example: what color was the little dog running after the girl? Meanwhile, there was no little dog in the drawing at all! Points are of two kinds: for answers to relevant questions and for whether someone was tricked by a question about things that did not exist in the picture.
