As Jon is handing the bartender the garbage he found on the floor, he slips again and hits is head on the floor this time. Jon begins to dream and in that dream he opens his mind and finds that he is thinking double, which is very odd indeed. The dream goes something like this...
Name is not known
John is writing a story about a person writing a story about a person whose name is not known. In both of the stories, the plot is based on the proposition that if the person fails to discover the name of the person whose name is not known, then the person whose name is not known kills the person who fails to discover the name.
One day the person who doesn’t know the name meets the person whose name is not known.
"What’s my name?" asks the person whose name is not known.
"I don’t know," replies the person who does not know the name.
"It’s John, you fool!" he says, killing the person who has failed to discover the name.
"Ah yes," says he, before he dies, "but now is the end of the story, John, and it is you, not me, who are no more!“
