Some weird PHP magic going on here

entities.php

<?php

class A 
{
	public function whoami() { return 'A'; }

	public function __call($method, array $args)
	{
		return 'A::__call::' . $method;
	}
}

class BB extends A
{
	public function whoami() { return 'BB'; }

	public function getX()
	{
		return 'BB::getX (FYI: parent is ' . parent::whoami(). ') -> ' . parent::getX() ;
	}
}

class CCC extends BB
{
	public function whoami() { return 'CCC'; }

	public function __call($method, array $args)
	{
		return 'CCC::__call::' . $method . ' -> ' . parent::__call($method, $args);
	}
}


$c = new CCC();

echo $c->getX() . "\n";


//////////////////////////////////////
// Output (on PHP 5.3.26 (cli)):
//
// BB::getX (FYI: parent is A) -> CCC::__call::getX -> A::__call::getX
