Separated At Birth?

I missed the beginning of the discussion, but from what I could gather the new person in our TKD class was saying something along the lines of she couldn't break properly if someone was watching. Jason the 1st dan was saying something like "we don't count as observers". She jerked a thumb in my direction & said "I dunno, he looks like Giles, I think that means he's a Watcher."

I'm not quite sure what to make of that.
