Quote from Mike in The Map
Sue: So, Dad, you're not gonna believe this. Brad came up to me on the stairs and said the most shocking thing to me. He said he has a huge secret. Mike: Oh, Sue, you know, I don't think it's that big a secret. Sue: No, it is. Guess what he said? [Mike shakes his head] A boy likes me. Mike: Brad said that? Sue: Yeah, he said a boy likes me. Mike: That's what Brad said? Sue: Right. Mike: Uh-huh. Now when he said that, was that Brad talking or you talking? Sue: Dad, there's really only one way to take this. Brad said a boy likes me. Mike: Mm, I don't think so. Who's "me" in this scenario? Sue: "Me"? Mike: "You" you or "you" Brad? Sue: What? Mike: Let's say you wrote it in a book. Would it say, "'a boy likes me, ' said Brad"? Sue: Why would a boy like Brad? Wh- Why would Brad say a boy likes him? That doesn't make any sense. Okay, forget it. I'm just gonna go tell Mom. Mike: Good plan.
