The situation

There's a boy, Leo, who has a clever trick. When he wants to do something risky, he doesn't suggest it outright. He plants it — "I bet you wouldn't dare…" or "Someone was saying you'd be too scared to…" — until the other person announces the idea themselves, thinking it was theirs. Then, if it goes wrong, Leo says, "Well, it was your idea." His friend Marcus fell for it last week and got in trouble for something Leo had carefully steered him into. Marcus genuinely believes it was his own idea, and now he's taking all the blame, while Leo stands back looking innocent.
