The first one was very short.
"I want to go to Wonderland. Do you NOT want to go with me?"
Oh, you are a clever one, aren't you? I couldn't figure out what her angle was here. Why did she put the question that way? Was she assuming that, by not responding, I was indicating that I wanted to go? That I would be confused by the question, and accidentally say that I did? Trying to take advantage of the ambiguity of the response to a question asked with a negative? Or was she just trying to be cute? I never responded, and she never asked again, so I assume it's not the first. Still, I can almost imagine her standing at the gate waiting for me, thinking that my lack of response meant that I would be there.

My name is not Hans. I am not big. I am not the one.
