Operator Page #2

a little bit and then we can re-evaluate.

You're a good operator, Pam.

- What's the occasion?

- Occasion?

- In that outfit?

- What's wrong with my outfit?

That white, those shoes?

- Who are you trying to impress?

- My paycheck.

- Yeah, with all the cuts they're making?

- Well, you got to at least try, right?

Make some initiative.

I've read that somewhere.

911. What is your emergency?

911. What's your emergency?

I haven't gotten a call in over an hour.

- Why is it always so slow around lunch?

- Criminals eat, right?

Break time, baby girl.

I've been on break all day.

Don't let Tony catch you with that.

- It's all yours.

- I forgot my mirror. Two minutes?

Follow me, children.

Over here we have one of the city's

most prominent monuments

established in the late 1890's

around the same time

that the city itself was built...

We're good to go and ready

in about ten minutes.

911. What is your emergency?

Such a lovely voice.

Such a calming tone.

I'll bet you don't get told that

very much when people are calling in.

No doubt they are too scared

out their minds to notice.

- Thank you.

- My pleasure.

So, how does this work?

I tell you the crime and the location,

and you send assistance to said location?

If I deem is necessary, yes, sir.

What is your emergency?

No time to waste

when lives are at stake.

You take your job

very seriously, don't you?

Sir, this is a line

for emergencies only.

If you need a help hotline

I'll be more than happy to transfer you.

But I do have an emergency to report.

Suppose I were to tell you

that a serious accident

on the corner of Fifth and Dawkins

is gonna occur in ten minutes

and you can prevent it from happening.

Would I have your attention then?

Oh, my goodness.

- Are we still on the clock?

- You think you have a shot with that?

What are you talking about?

She looked right at me.

- I know what that means. I still got it.

- It means you need new glasses.

She looked right at me.

- What a butt like a ten-year old.

- Really?

You know, you should enjoy her

while you can at that age.

Because right now she thinks

you're the coolest dude on Earth.

- But by middle school it's all over.

- That early?

That early. My daughter started

to call me "pig" in sixth grade.

I wonder why.

Who I am and why I'm doing this

is none of your concern.

What I am prepared to do is

what you should be concerned about.

- Sir, if this is some kind of a prank...

- Then hang up on me.

Oh, that's right!

An emergency dispatch operator

can't disconnect

once the caller has stated

"There's emergency".

No doubt, by now you've tried

discovering my location.

Did you find something interesting?
