Person B: Do you want some of these (B opens a box of boring cookies and shows the contents to A)
A: No!
B: How about these (opens another box of bland cookies)
A: No!
B: (grabs a third box, realizes it’s empty, but opens it carefully not to show anyone what’s inside) Ooh, I’m not showing this to you. (Puts the box away.)
A: I wanna see! (Tries to grab the box)
B: No, it’s mine! (Pushes A further away)
After some futile struggle B let A have the box. A opens it up and realizes it’s empty. We all had a good laugh.
