The idea

Find the first pronoun referring to the teller. Count the minds entered. Look for one judgment and ask whose it is. Three steps, and they give the point of view and the attribution habit before any question has been read.

In practice

Pronoun, minds, judgment.

Where people slip

Three steps, done before the questions.
