I'm walking down the street with a friend, and we see a woman standing under a tree, yelling for [local superhero]. In the tree is a really skinny and, I should point out, scruffy-looking cat.
[My friend]: Do you need some help, Ma'am?
[Lady]: Thanks, dear, but this is something only [local superhero] can handle.
She goes back to yelling, and someone drops out of the sky. It's definitely not [local hero], but there's a strong resemblance and the costume has the same insignia. My friend immediately takes out her phone and starts getting pictures.
[New hero]: What seems to be the trouble, Ma'am?
[Lady]: (clearly annoyed) You're not [local superhero]!
The new guy looks a little upset, but the lady doesn't seem to notice.
[New hero]: No, I'm not. I'm [name].
My friend and I are both freaking out because we've never, ever heard of this guy, and this is obviously a historic moment! The lady, however, just looks more annoyed.
[Lady]: I wanted [local superhero]!
[New hero]: (also annoyed) Well, you've got me instead. How can I help?
The lady points at the cat and asks him to get it out of the tree for her. He does, but as soon as he goes near the cat, it freaks out and starts clawing and spitting.
[New hero]: (Joking) Does he always greet new people this way?
[Lady]: Oh, I don't know. I've never seen him before.
[New hero]: (Stares at her) What?
[Lady]: I was just passing by and I saw this adorable little creature, but when I tried to take it home with me, he ran up this tree.
By now, we are all staring at this woman like she's nuts.
[New hero]: Are you telling me that I left--um, that I came all this way to get a cat that isn't even yours?!
[Lady]: Well! [Local superhero] would never be so rude!
[New hero]: I'm sorry.
[Lady]: That's all--
[New hero]: I was talking to the cat. (to the cat) Come on, Kitty, I'll make this up to you with some tuna.
He flies away with the cat, and the lady just about turns purple. She starts yelling again.
[Lady]: Help! [Local superhero]! Someone stole my cat!
My friend: (To me) This is going on Not Always Super, isn't it?
Me: Oh yeah.
