You jump in time, location and plot, fly and die without provoking surprise or doubt. Even if you arrive at the question whether it is all just a dream, you deny it. And then you wake, and reality feels real. Really real. Even realer than the dream, you’re convincing your woken self. But if that were true, why can’t you tell when you’re dreaming?
