Young Man: sure, I've heard that.
OM: well, me and my buddy are renovating this building on Brandon Ave. and a guy who lives in the building next door looks just like you.
YM: yeah, you know what's funny is... I live on Brandon Ave.
OM: so you know him?
YM: uh, no I live in that building: 925 Brandon.
OM: no, no that's not it. Hey Marcus!! What's that building number?
Marcus: 913!!
OM: yeah, it's 913. Doesn't he look just like that kid that lives over on Brandon Ave.?
Marcus: ...
YM: you don't understand, I LIVE IN THAT BUILDING. The reason I look like him... is... I am him.
OM: no way.
YM: yes.
OM: so you know the super in that building, the guy who's been having health problems?
YM: oh, the old guy who always wears the green hat?
OM: no, not that guy, he owns the building. The guy who drives a van.
YM: ... I think so. I remember seeing a van parked out back.
OM: yeah, he's not been doing so good. Tell him hi for me.
YM: uh... I will if I see him I guess. Take it easy.
OM: Hey you too buddy. I thought you had a twin...
