Trigger: Are you sure?
Rodney: Yeah I'm positive, I’ve looked it up on me birth certificate and passport and everything. It is definitely Rodney.
Trigger: Oh well, you live and learn... So what’s Dave, a nickname ‘like?
Rodney: No! You’re the only one who calls me Dave, everybody else calls me Rodney - and the reason they call me Rodney, is because Rodney is my name.
