      Right, but then “iT’s tHE SaME HoUSe” still isn’t a plot twist. It very obviously is the same house. The question is whether it’s the same tennant.

        It’s not obvious that it’s the same house. House doesn’t necessarily equate building. People use house and home interchangeably, and in an apartment complex “house” can refer to a single apartment. Thus, when saying that it’s the same house they are saying that the same person owns those apartments. You might not agree with that definition of house, but that clearly what the OP is using.
