ALLAN: George doesn’t have to know about us, babe. I mean—it’s not like I’ve gotten you pregnant. At least—not for sure!
JANE: Well, I suppose…
ALLAN: Sure. Telling the truth just leads to problems. That’s why I always lie to my wife!
JANE: You’re married?
ALLAN: Uh…umm…I mean, no! But—see? If I’d been telling you the truth just now…we’d both be sorry!
Meanwhile, back in the present…

After we’re married, I’ll stop lying to you…and your parents…and some of your friends.
For example, here’s the truth about my age. I’m 25.
I mean, uh…21.
And, from now on, I’ll be 21 every year. Forever.
That’s the truth. And anyone who says otherwise is LYING!
