Voice: Hello?
Isaiah: Help.
Voice: Sorry, wrong number.
Isaiah: No, wait, no! For God’s sake, don’t hang up.
Voice: Who the hell is this? You’ve been calling me non-stop for the past five minutes.

Isaiah: Me. I don’t.
Secondvoice: Well, don’t you scroll the internet or something? Live on this planet?
Isaiah: No.
