Found this. Here's an excerpt.

These voices are the original Cloud, as — due to Hojo’s Sephiroth Clones experiment — Zack’s personality merged with his, creating the present day Cloud, producing a conflict of multiple personalities(—>P.11).

During the scene in the first mako reactor, what [the voice] says is it [trying] to point [Cloud] toward the memory of Sephiroth five years ago in Nibelheim’s mako reactor, as the two places were similar. However, Cloud is not able to listen to the words of the memory.

What I'm definitely getting at here is that the original Cloud has been at the Honeybee Inn before. Specifically in that room. That's why he freaks out and hears the voice. He isn't well liked, that's why the lady says "Poo, I mean, uh, sir" upon seeing him. She really isn't pleased to see him. Also, he clearly has a history with Mukki. Everything makes sense now.

I suppose that's possible if we want to seriously entertain the idea. The likelihood is slim imo, I mean, Zack was able to wander around Midgar, but he was actually a SOLDIER, Cloud was just a grunt subject to "stationing". I can't honestly imagine him appearing at Honeybee Inn enough or doing anything significant to stand out and especially garner in ill from the workers. Cloud's personality is far too withdrawn.

I'm still on the fence over whether the "Poo, I mean sir" is a misplaced refference to when Cloud gets gets called "Pooch" later, and she's stopping herself, or she's litterally saying "poo" for some reason. If it's the former it's an error.

When was Cloud ever called "Pooch"?

By the chicks in the makeup room.

I think it's her saying "Crap" and then realizing it's out loud and their client can hear her being annoyed. At least that's my take on it.

That would make sense, thanks.

There is no point in the game in which Cloud is called "Pooch."

(Cloud ducks into the dressing room for the Honeybees and speaks to them.
Repeatedly.)

"Hmm, hmm, hmm....."
"Ohhh, I just can't seem to lose weight. Hmm, hmm, hmm..."
"Sir!! You can't come in here."
"(Yuk..... a pervert...)"

"Eyaah!"
"Don't!"

"Paste, paste, paste....."
"(Oh God... here's another one of those guys. You know, the
delicate type. Just ignore him, just ignore him.)"
"Fluff, fluff, fluff..."
"(Hmm! I guess he doesn't realize his position. I feel sorry for
him. Just ignore him, just ignore him.)"
"Pita, pita, pita...."
"(God, what a pest! All right, get out of here! You dog...)"
"(That's it, I'll name him 'pooch'.)"
"Mix, mix, mix...."
"(What should I do... Is he following me? Really? What if he
follows me home...?)"
"(Poochy'll do it, I'm sure of it...)"
"Shake, shake, shake..."
"(You think he's after me? Really? This guy makes me sick... And
his eyes are weird too....)"
"(Yeah, don't hurt these guys' feelings. Let's at least say 'hi'
to him."
"Uhh.... Hel... Hello."
"What a nice day, today."

^To be fair, it's not a line that everyone will know as you have to keep talking to them. That happens a lot in FF games, what is a hidden fact to one play is something everyone knows to another.

I can't resist an opportunity to be right though :monster: But yes, it's not easy to see that bit of speech, and it's not like that dialogue proves anything regarding the "poo" line, especially given that the girl who says poo, uh I mean sir is actually the first person you encounter and doesn't have Cloud "stalking" her.
