Step-by-Step Solution
- Compare the two. There is a red envelope on the left and a wrapped gift box.
- Do not open the box. The gift box looks tempting, but it contains books, not spendable money.
- Open the red envelope. Tap the red envelope to open it.
- The money appears. A coin comes out of the envelope. The "That's great! There is money in the red envelope." result appears.
Strategy & Reasoning
Pocket money is in the red envelope, not the gift box (which contains books). Opening the envelope reveals the money.
A red envelope traditionally holds cash gifts, while the wrapped gift box looks like it might contain a present but actually holds books. Since the girl wants spendable pocket money, the envelope is the source. Opening the gift box would only reveal books, which cannot be spent. Tapping the envelope releases the coin she needs.
Why is the red envelope the source of money? A red envelope traditionally holds a cash gift, while the wrapped gift box looks like it might contain a present. When you open the box, however, it is full of books, which cannot be spent. The girl wants pocket money she can use to buy things, so the envelope is the right container. Tapping it open releases a coin. The joke is that the more gift-like box holds useless reading material, while the plain red envelope holds the spendable cash she actually wants.
The wrapped gift box looks like the more exciting present, which is why it is the decoy. When you actually open it, it contains books rather than anything spendable. The red envelope, by contrast, is the traditional container for a cash gift, and opening it shakes out a coin. Since the girl wants pocket money she can use to buy things, only the envelope satisfies her. The humor is that the boring-looking envelope holds the useful cash while the prettier box holds something she cannot spend.
The wrapped box holds books, while the red envelope holds the spendable coin. Choose the envelope for pocket money.
Opening the envelope shakes out the coin that she can actually spend.
The pretty wrapped box is intentionally the decoy, because it only holds boring books, while the dull red envelope is the one with real spending money inside.
