– Where were you at the time of the burglary?
– I was at the cinema, Officer. And my mother and father were at the cinema, too.
– Was your brother at the cinema, too?
– At the cinema, Officer… Yes.
– And your sister?
– Er… She wasn’t at the cinema. As a matter of fact I don’t have a sister.
– I see.
– But of course if I had one, Officer…
– Don’t tell me.
– Now which cinema was this?
