“Hi, can I speak with Trevor, please?”
(teenage girl’s voice) “Who is this, please?”
“This is SpectraCom.”
“Why are you calling?”
“I have a personal business matter to discuss with Trevor.”
“And what is that matter?”
“I’m afraid I can discuss it with only him or his wife, should he be married.”
“This is his daughter. You can tell me.”
“As I stated, I can discuss it only with him or his wife, not his daughter.”
“I’m over 16.”
“That has nothing to do with it. I can legally discuss it only with Trevor or his wife.”
“Well, I’m not putting him on the phone unless you tell me what it’s about.”
“Well then, we have reached an impasse. Could you kindly spare us some trouble and put him on the phone please?”
“Not until you tell me.”
“I can’t do that. Put Trevor on the phone, please.”
“Fine...” (Same voice, slightly deeper) “This is Trevor.”
“This is Trevor?”
“Yes.”
(Laugh) “Okay, Sir, my name is Rubin, and I’m calling from SpectraCom, Sir about a balance due on your account, sir, of $92.71...”
