One of my colleagues had this rather interesting encounter the other day.
SC: Silly Customer
CC: Clever Colleague
SC: "How do I get through there?"
CC: "That's a mirror sir."
SC: Undeterred - "So can I go through to that room?"
CC: "No sir, that's a mirror."
SC: "Yes."
*Awkward Silence*
CC: "...there's nothing other than a mirror there, I'm afraid."
SC: "So I can't go that way?"
CC: "No sir. It's a mirror."
You'd think the dialogue would've ended immediately after he was told its a mirror.
I'd suggest allowing them to walk into the mirror and find out for themselves, but the last person who tried kept walking into some "annoying man" who was repeatedly coming the other way.
