We go to a house where there's supposedly a guy with a felony warrant inside. We can't get anyone to come to the door, so we go next door and talk to the elderly lady who owns the house. It turns out she rents the place to the guy we're looking for. She calls him on the phone:
Miss Gulch: (screaming into phone): "Rowan? The police are down here looking for you! Are you upstairs? (pause) Well, then you get down here right now and talk to them, or you're going to be in big trouble!"
When we stop laughing, we go back to the house and a guy comes to the door.
Officer Cynical: "What's your name?"
Mr. Bean: "Rowan. But not the Rowan you're looking for."
Officer Cynical: "Really? What's your last name?"
Mr. Bean: "Bean."
Officer Cynical: "Oh. Well, actually you are the Rowan we're looking for, so you're under arrest."
Mr. Bean: "But I'm not that Rowan Bean!"

I work with the mentally ill who have been charged with crimes but are not mentally competent to stand trial. They often believe they are not John Doe but someone else arrested falsely. I have to explain they are John Doe to me until the court tells me otherwise.
