In a game-like setting, a person attempts to guess whether strangers are models or not. The individual talks to each person, asks questions, and observes their behavior, trying to determine if they have the characteristics of a model. The person makes guesses based on factors such as physical appearance, confidence, and demeanor.
As the game progresses, the person's guesses are revealed to be correct or incorrect. Some models admit to being typecast as "diversity" models, while others talk about their experiences in the industry. A few non-models are mistaken for models due to their charming personalities or physical appearance.
The game concludes with the person reflecting on their experience and realizing that their definition of what makes a model has changed. The participants also share their thoughts on the game and provide some insight into the world of modeling.
