Option 2

Agent Tesla: So after all of these interviews that we have had over the years the entirety of the media has suddenly been struck with amnesia and forgot about me?

Dave Heinrich: I think this is a different interviewer actually.

Agent Tesla: Did they not bother to do any reading of our previous interviews? Your work with the media is very clearly minimal so as not to raise alarms about my eldritch existence, and with me handling so much of that work load for you it should be obvious what I do.

Dave Heinrich: I mean that doesn't cover the fact that you bailed me out (of hell), raised me up (from the dead), and got me back into playing shape (by forcing me through training that a SPARTAN-II would call cruel).

Agent Tesla: You know that I can hear everything you think and so whispering will not prevent me from being aware of it.

Dave Heinrich: The whispering was for the interviewer's benefit.

Agent Tesla: Fair enough. Well combine that with the fact that I am the one who pushes the buttons in the outerverse to make sure that the points earned from Dave's training are appropriately applied and I think it safe to say that I am integral to every ounce of Dave's success in this simulated universe.

Dave Heinrich: I can agree with that since I'd still be in that other universe without you.

Interviewer: I was actually here to interview the agent for the model train designer Dave Heinrich. Sorry I think my boss made a mistake.

Agent Tesla: Oh! I can see why you would want to know why he has an agent. Well I guess this was a wasted endeavor then.
