Only Rowan & Adam know this isn't real. If Alan was here, he would know this isn't real, either 'cause of the "realizing you're not real" video, back in the day of VLDL. Adam knows he isn't real since day one of his appearance. Along with other videos indicating how different he is outside of PlayTech/TechTown vs when he's there.
