– There is a mouse in the attic
– Are you sure? Can’t see anything from here.
– I don’t know, but I saw two eyes and a blue light.
– Ah that’s probably just the person living in the attic.
– There is someone living in the attic?
– I don’t know but I saw two eyes and a blue light
– Is he sleeping?
– Who? The mouse or the person in the attic?
