Vanya's imaginary friend

Last week, Ivan introduced us to his imaginary friend, Dell. Here's what we've learned so far:

• Dell plays the cello, conducts an orchestra, and sings in the opera.
• Dell's father, Tapa, is a stuffed penguin who still wears diapers.
• Dell was recently in Hawaii, and sent only one email to Ivan. But Ivan was kind enough to pick him up from the airport and bring him home to Maine.

Igor has been encouraging the development of Dell by asking Ivan questions. I, however, stumped Ivan the other day by asking him why he could drive Dell to Maine, but not his babushka and himself to the haircutter.
