Giving new cards means giving cards none of which are the same as any
card in the previous batch. Therefore if you are looking in the new
batch for a card from the previous batch, you won't find it. It will be
missing, because it has been taken away. The trick is that all the cards
in the old batch have been taken away, so no matter which card you
picked, it will be missing from the second batch.
