I'm on some sort of treasure hunt with my sister Petra, but she's younger, maybe 12 or 13 years old. We're looking for these certain unusual bricks. We don't have any trouble finding them all in the first round.

The second round has us visiting an REI store, and we can't find any of the bricks. We have a diagram that is sort of a cutaway of the building, like the ones in a DK travel guide, as though it is an old historical building. The building is made of stone, Petra looks for the special bricks in the old walls - but they wouldn't be there, I tell her, the walls were built a long time ago, and these bricks were hidden just recently. She seems really discouraged, and aimlessly walks the store.

In the store there is a chest freezer full of frozen chickens, and for some reason I surreptitiously spit some brightly colored blob out of my mouth into the freezer. Then I feel bad about that - gross! - so I circle back to that part of the store to see if I can sneakily grab it and throw it in the garbage, planning to wipe off the chickens with my sleeve.
