The Wizard at the DMV
A wizard’s magical powers do not seem to shorten the queue at the DMV. Repeated stars and moons on his robe make it tempting to skim the pattern, but one small motif matters. His ticket, staff and the service counter provide separate places to compare. The display behind the counter is a distraction: both scenes show the same number there.

A useful comparison tip
Read the wizard’s hand-held ticket rather than assuming the background display is the answer.
