John: I’m actually Elvis you know.
Christine: But Elvis is dead John, and your name is John and you were born in Brisbane.
John: Nah! They say he is dead to avoid ruining my reputation.
Christine: Well, if you are Elvis, can you sing for me then. Maybe you can sing “Are you lonesome tonight”? (which is one of my favorite Elvis songs).
