The theory of the random graph has the extension property: for finite disjoint vertex sets , there is a new vertex adjacent to every point of and to no point of .
Let be countable models and let be a finite partial embedding. Enumerate and . At an even stage, take the first outside the domain. Its adjacency pattern to the finite domain prescribes finite disjoint subsets of the range; the extension property in supplies a new image with exactly that pattern. At an odd stage, apply the same argument to the inverse map and the first unused . This back-and-forth method produces an increasing sequence of finite partial embeddings whose union is an isomorphism. Hence every finite partial embedding extends to an isomorphism .
