"Johnny Did It Too" Example

Let's say that Johnny and Tyler are told by their teacher to sit down in the circle. Their teacher allows Johnny and Tyler to pick one toy to play with. The only thing their teacher tells them to do is to stay sitting down on the ground. After much deciding, Johnny and Tyler pick out the box of Legos and begin to build a tower. After a little while the tower gets to be very big, so Johnny stands up. Then Tyler sees that Johnny is standing up, and the teacher hasn't seen him yet. Tyler knows that he is not supposed to stand up, but Johnny hasn't gotten in trouble yet. What should Tyler do?
