Dvds

Talking to my cousins:

A: Is your whole Dvd collection in this cabinet?

B: Yes, it is, and we have some in here too. (points to a hallway cabinet)

A: Can I look through it and find something to watch?

B: Ok.

Is this dialogue grammatically native?

Thank.

PreciousJones Is this dialogue grammatically native? Yes, grammatically, but both natives and non-natives will find a logical contradiction in it. Can you find it?

Since there's another batch of dvds in the hallway cabinet, then there wouldn't be a whole collection in the first cabinet.

Is this the contradiction?
