So I said, "But which one?"

Listen here, buddy. Your friend tricked you because "it's Tom" is a contraction of "it is Tom", which has an apostrophe. The joke plays on 'it's Tom' sounding like 'its Tom,' implying the name Tom with two M's. And you? Well, you fell for it hook, line, and sinker, didn't you, you silly goose!
