I have an audition for an upcoming feature of a well known and beloved book. My potential part is very small, though it would be a great role - it is a patient in a psychiatric facility (in the late 50s/early 60s)

He is described as “grey” and “looks vacant” and is counting a deck of cards.

I know this is not “card counting” like in Vegas, I imagine just a guy counting the cards in a deck, simple

but how? Like is it a shuffled deck and he lols at each card and names it, or is he just literally counting the number of cards?

it’s a little difficult for me to visualize

any advice?
