The leaves look like poison ivy. Very timely as I am just getting over a bad case I picked up in a junk yard looking for parts for one of my 1/1 cars.

I "found" the Poison Ivy......it`s on the rain video right ?........................I get Poison Oak attacked when ever I get out to do yardwork and have found one product that has never failed to stop outbreaks......something called Tecnu.......even at 35.00/qt I would never be without it.......I started using all 3 items in Tecnu`s product line but found that just the cleanser was all I needed

JB, Thanks for the information on the tecnu. I will certainly buy some and have it on hand. I showed my wife the the rain scene and asked her if  that plant was poison ivy and she said no. She said that poison ivy leaves are one with three points to them while the ones in your picture is three different leaves each.

@bob-jackman  She is,no doubt correct Sir!!!.....I hope you get years of benefit from the Tecnu cleanser.....I know I`ve been exposed when I feel an itchy spot after having been out in the yard.....working a few drops of the cleanser over the affected area, lifts and isolate the urushiol oil,allowing it to be wiped off or washed off......if,after few hours,you sense that you missed a spot,just re-apply......even catching a mild itch location the NEXT DAY is effective in entirely preventing an out break
