As Archie sits on a park bench, people keep mistaking him for someone named "Clarence" and belting him one. Then Archie meets a guy who looks exactly like him and says this is his bench... but this guy's name is "Perkin Warbeck," and he also calls Archie "Clarence." As the story ends, Archie is starting to think he might really be Clarence after all.
