I am wandering the city with R.H. We are at a company retreat and have been asked to partner into teams. We are looking for something to climb, like a building under construction, or being torn down. The south of the city is in some disrepair. This may be San Francisco. We give up and go to rejoin the others. I get ahead and discover them gathering at tables in a field. I fly up into the air while I wait for R. R appears and the boss D.S. calls to him, says Oh, you can be my partner, I need one. R points me out as I come to ground and says he already has one.
D explains that the activity is a painting competition. We have blue vinyl folders with advertising designs which we are to paint over. Mine goes rather messily but I decide that this is a reasonable interpretation of graffiti, and I try to extend the motif. I think I've got something worth winning when the painting begins to become indistinct. Over a period of confusion it disappears altogether. I look around and notice that the others' paintings are also disappearing. I say: "It's a trick!" D is grinning and laughing.
