It goes like this - gate agent has passenger list that shows companion boarded, but companion pass holder never did. GA tells flight attendant. Flight attendant gets on intercom and asks companion pass holder and companion to hit their call buttons so they can identify them. CP holder obviously cannot do this, companion either a) rings call button, and gets escorted off the plane, or b) doesn't ring call button, FA realizes the scam they are trying to pull, and the real fun begins.
