"Ms. A?"

"Yes?"

"What is your real name?"

"What do you mean? My real name is what you just called me. Ms. A."

"But everyone knows that that's just code for something else. Naming is important. It's what distinguishes us from others. True, some of us have the same name and there's always that rare occasion when we get misidentified by someone because we carry the same name of someone else they know. But Ms. A, I think you're playing a game with me."

"Sir, I am not playing a game with you. I am taking a bath with you. That is, if you will join me here in this whirlpool of hot water."
