    I’m not sure if this is true, likely not, since I saw it in a movie:

    At the beginning, when they were establishing the baseline, they asked whether she had ever used marijuana. She said yes, which was a lie, but the interviewer thought it was the truth, because come on, who would’ve admitted that?

    The bottom line is, when they’re asking the baseline questions, lie (sometimes).

    Again, I don’t know how far this is from the truth, but that show was pretty cool.

      I’m pretty sure the baseline questions are things they already know the answer to. Like what’s your name, where were you born, etc. So lying about them would be obvious.
