No, really. Take another look at your design, I think your test is  
trying to tell you something.

This code is fine, but you should be cautious about using this much  
behaviour in a mock. Having to hang on to an object so you can return  
elsewhere in a test is a hint that maybe you should use a real object,  
or that the object should be passed directly, or that there's a seam  
that hasn't been exposed.
