Merle?
Merle, are you there?

Merle.
Yes, can I help you?

Oh, that's right, I did call you.
I thought you did. I mean why would I call you. You were the one with a problem, not me.
Yes, I did call you. It was about the two men fighting in the street outside my bedroom window, wasn't it?
No, it's about the two men that we're assuming were fighting outside your bedroom window.

Is that a question or are you just musing?

Should I answer it then?
No, rhetorical questions don't require answers.
I wasn't sure. Rhetorical questions aren't covered in the manual.

I thought I was sure. Let me check one more time to make sure that I am sure.
Should I hold?
Yes, I'm going to check my manual, please hold.
