Jason: James my man, why the heck are you friends with Robert? didn't he convince you and Alison to break up and the took Alison's virginity anyways?
James: Listen, my enemy's enemy is my friend. What I mean is, Alison and I were already having relationship issue before Robert became a regular at the bar where she then worked. Not only that but Robert and I have a common enemy, whose name is Carl. Robert hates Carl cuz Carl stole his car. And I hate Robert because he borrowed money from me to pay rent on a stupid storage locker and never bothered paying me back.
Jason: so now the you and Robert want to gang up on Carl?
James: Don't know yet, but Robert and I are friends because we do have a common enemy.
