Joseph is coming to my Law class!!! He dropped an extra math class to have fun with me and Cap'n!!!

Today in my Street Law class we got mind fucked HARD..with a razor-tipped condom. It fuckin' tore our brains to pieces.
Perno was teaching us how to use mental/emotional appeals while questioning witnesses and, most difficult of all, how to cross-examine a witness.
Now I see why lawyers have to be fuckin' geniuses...
Perno used a riddle to help us learn the right paths to take while cross examining. The riddle was perfect becuase it told you a story, left out parts, and hid the answer. The lying (Something every witness you cross examine will probably do) came in the form of the puns within the riddle. Using a series of "yes" or "no" answer questions (so we can cut out the b.s. and reveal the truth) we underwent the grueling task of cross examination.
It's so sad...our class is made up of the smartest kids in the school...the cream of the intellectual crop. But when Mr. Perno put the riddle on the board for us to solve, we were all stumped. After about an hour and 45 minutes of cross examining Perno, we still had absolutely no idea what the answer was. When he told us the answer, we were gonna hang ourselves. It was just so obvious.

Our biggest problem was the we didn't focus on one fact at a time like we were supposed to. Instead, we branched out our questions and began making guess.

Here's the riddle, if anyone thinks they can get it:
"There is a man who wants to go home but is afraid to because there is a man at home with a mask.
Where is the man who wants to go home?"

---Common Misconceptions---
*Both of the homes mentioned are the same home.
*No, the men aren't the same person.
*No, the mask isn't metaphorical, it's real.
HINT: The men work together (IM me if you need more hints... they'd have to be "yes' or "no" questions.)

There, you have more information than I did. Good luck.
