There are two boxes. One contains an FAI, and the other contains Omega. You can open either of them. Unfortunately, if you choose to open one, Omega has already predicted this, and is in the one you're going to open.

What happens if I take the box that contains Omega and cram it into the box that contains FAI?

The first box contains Omega and the second box contains a million dollars.
