After the selection and adaptation of each sketch I would ask follow-up questions to gain a better understanding of that particular scene. 

For example, in the opening scene of the film we see two hunters and their dogs hunt a polar bear. 

More detailed descriptions for this scene clarified that that the hunters should wear traditional garbs, and weapons like a bow and arrow and a spear, because it described a pre-quota moment in time. James and William would clarify how these weapons were used; the spear for example would be used in up close encounters with polar bears and held in place by balancing the spear on one foot. 

Explanations like these would often result in bringing up memories of their own hunting stories and polar bear encounters, which were also shared with lots of excitement and referrals to specific locations on the map hanging on the wall of the HTO office.
