Walk into...

Lex: Who's that?

Contractor: Lucky break. A couple weeks after Amanda's funeral,
I walk into a greasy spoon in Bloodhaven (That's not an idiom. is it? He just walked into a
cheap restaurant in that town or whatever it is, right?) and there he is.
I couldn't believe it. Short-order cook, flipping burgers. You know how they
say everyone in life has a double. I had to look twice. (Meaning he wasn't sure and had to look again?)
I figure if he can fool me, he can fool you.

Correct on both. Looking twice, also called a double take. One sees something that can't be believed, and looks again to make sure.
