You're out with your sister and her boyfriend one day in preperation for Christmas and it seems normal until you leave to go the toilet. When you get back it has gotten uncomfortable as he has gotten madder than Mr House when you refuse to hand over the Platinum Chip in Fallout New Vegas and is shouting angrily at your sister.

Your sister seems downcast and is apologizing but he's still yelling at her in a barrage of irritation. People are starting to stare.

Get my sister out of there. If she wants to stay she stays.

My sister's boyfriend has done worse than that and I'm the only person who seems to give a shit, but she and the rest of the family treat him like he's perfect.

I don't have a sister. Because of this incongruity, I realize that I'm in a simulation.

I want to roll a perception check to determine whether I'm in a "Matrix" situation or a "Truman Show" scenario.

That's not what it means at all. It means this is a Matrix situation, because in a Truman Show he would have always had a sister. The perception check reveals that the Architect has changed something.

You notice that the security guards are starting to focus on you instead of the scene between your "sister" and her boyfriend. What do you do?

I try to stay out of other people's relationships. You never know the full story and people vouch for their toxic partners regardless for the damage they do.

Also, I don't know what set this guy off. My sister could be an addict and spent their rent money on drugs for example. In which case it would be rational for the guy to lose his shit for a number of reasons.

Your argument is assuming that the guy is being an asshole and the sister is just bearing his abuse. People just don't go off the deep end for no reason.

Context is important. I wouldn't jump to conclusions without having the facts.
