Philip and Denis cut a watermelon into four parts. When they finished eating watermelon (they ate the whole thing), they discovered that there were five watermelon rinds left. How is it possible, if no rind was cut after the initial cutting?

One cell was cut out of a \(3\times6\) rectangle, as seen in the diagram. How should you glue this cell in a different place to get a figure that can be cut into two identical ones? If needed, the resulting parts can be rotated and reflected.
