If you are writing a dialogue for Star Wars or Harry Potter or James Bond it could be something like:
A: How would I know it's him, Mother?
B: When he arrives, he will give a sign. A sign of the Cross. If so, you give him a glass of Glenlivet on the rocks, whereupon he would say, "Have you got my kilt?" You should then say, "Her Majesty the Queen Mother is dead." If he responds, "Long live the Pope", give him the emerald. If he misses any of that, or his sign is not a sign of the cross, just take him to table 9 in the restaurant.
