In order to keep his secret he just told the truth when anyone asked This could be a 5 minute quickie or a 55 day slog. I don't mind which, so spoiŁ away if you wish. | ||

Was the truth so outrageous noone believed him? The truth=the secret, correct? Did he deliberately tell the truth in such a way that people would not believe him? | ||

Is that his "secret"? So when people asks what he does, he just says "I'm a spy" and they assume he's nuts? | ||

Is that his "secret"? So when people asks what he does, he just says "I'm a spy" and they assume he's nuts? that's so close I'm not going to push further ************** SPOILER ************** Dr House (yes, that one on telly) is conscripted to help the CIA with a top secret mission. Being the curmudgeon that he is he just tells people 'I'm on a top secret mission for the CIA' and of course they reply with a double positive - 'Yeah right'. No real agent would ever say such a thing, but John Doe can as people would just assume he's fibbing Well done. | ||
