(a/out) little missy over here...
At 12 seconds into the video, Robert Downey Jr. says:
"Well, it was magical too because ___ little missy over here was knocked up."
The blank sounds like either "uh" or "a" or "our".
What do you think it really is?
If "missy" is a countable noun, shouldn't it be "a" or "our"?

Thanks.
So the reason that you think it's not "a" or "our" is because of the sound itself or the meaning?
I mean, is "missy" in this context incompatible with "a" or "our"?
