Note that not every pair of incidental characters named Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are a reference to ''Theatre/RosencrantzAndGuildensternAreDead''; they might be just a reference to the original pair in ''Theatre/{{Hamlet}}''. If they're flipping a coin or arguing metaphysics, or both, you're on much more certain ground.
