Two. You called the King of Clubs; it turned up in the talon's Group A (K
, XVIII), and the king-rescue lets you take it. Group B (9
, 4
) and Group C (Q
, C) wait face-down beside the table instead of joining the defenders. Trick 8: you lead the K, and it wins the trick outright.
What happens to the four waiting cards?

Answer
All four are tossed face-up onto this trick and belong to you entirely: the K‘s win completes the rescue in full. Nine Card Points ride along with the four cards themselves (Q and C alone add seven, 9 and 4 add two more), on top of whatever the trick itself carried, banked the moment the King came home a winner.
