>Lady, you're preaching about environmentalism to a plant. We get it. Chill.
Okay, okay, I'll calm down. Sorry, sometimes I just get frustrated. I guess it's actually nice having someone to vent at now, instead of just throwing stuff or moping like I usually do. Thanks for the new leaf by the way, I hope it's not painful giving these to me. Still kinda freaky how fast you can do stuff like that. Oh, what's this? um... Wow.
The cellphone's constant pleading for attention finally gets results, and Florence calls up her messages with some trepidation.
Florence, it's your mother. I just wanted to remind you, your brother's birthday is coming up. Be sure to at least send him a card. Love you.
Where are you? Shit, did you see what happened? What the hell were they doing in there? um.. Fuck man..
Gale? It's Dan. Did you make it out okay? We're trying to get everyone to meet up in a bit. Call me back.
Hello, Maples here, trying to see if anybody knows where Eric is. Let me know when you get this I guess.
Six seconds of street noises and silence...
I... oh Christ not you too. Gale? Please call me back, nobody's answering.
Uh, hello...?
Gale, I'm getting out of here, sorry if you still needed a ride, but I'm not leaving me car over here any longer.
A short moment of silence and a click...
Hey Gale, we're making for the Denny's on 26th. Come over when you get this.
Um, Florence? Shit, I hope you get this. It's Kral. The police grabbed me. And Eric, and a few others. I dunno, don't know 'em all. Uh... please, I only get the one call, um... They have us at the south station.
Hey, heading back to that side of town, sounds like the others are trying to get a headcount. See you there?
*grunt* Hey. Becca. Dan is having me call around, tell everyone the cops are picking people up from the hospital. Don't go if you can avoid it.
Oh God, Florence? I just saw the news. Call me right away.
Florence? Honey, I'm not mad, I just need to know you're safe. They are saying people died... Honey I'm so sorry.
N- Gale? Are you still with us? I.. Sam said she saw you up near the wall before... Call me if you get this, okay?
Did you get a ride from somebody already? Sorry if I sound like I'm obsessing or something, I just don't like abandoning people.
Becca. If you're okay, meet at the office tomorrow. We need to figure out what we're doing next.
Flo? Your mother just told me what happened. Are you okay? Do you need help? ...Call me when you get this.
Hey, it's Post, sorry 'bout earlier. It sounds like the cops grabbed Eric, so Dan's stepping up to organize stuff. We're gonna meet up at HQ tomorrow at ten. See you there.
Come on, pick up. Oh man, I hope you're just in the hospital. Somebody said they saw you by the building when it blew.
Florence... I called your father. I... let us know you're alright, okay? You weren't even in the city today were you?
Gale, if you're still out there, keep on hiding. The cops confiscated phones from the guys they picked up, so they totally know what we're doing.
*nothing but quiet sobbing for close to twenty seconds*
Please honey, pick up your phone...
