They're real to me...

Talking about seeing an old classmate at dinner and the possibility of playing a trick on her and then saying that "MJ put me up to it!"

MJ:  She wouldn't know my by MJ!  I go by EK at school and work.

TC:  Except for the guy at work who calls you Legolas...

(background story explained... then from nowhere...)

NS:  Wait, Legolas went to Yale?

(everyone looks at NS...)

NS:  Hey... but... Natalie Portman went to Harvard...

Someone:  But Natalie Portman is a real person.
