Captain Mahari: How many blocks are in your towers, Fin? And don't count, subitise.
Fin: That means seeing the amount I see. Erm, eight.
Captain Mahari: Correct. How many blocks after I rearrange your towers?
Fin: Erm, ten?
Captain Mahari: Look again. Rearranging blocks changes the shape of your towers, but the number of blocks is still the same. They're just in a different pattern.
Fin: So eight.
Captain Mahari: Yes! Anya, how many blocks are in your towers altogether?
Anya: Nine.

Anya: Nine?
