The Call Page #4

Josh.

Okay, listen, Josh.

The most important thing to

remember about this job is this:

Stay emotionally detached.

Don't get too involved

in your P.R.'s crisis.

What's P.R.?

Person reporting.

Right. And never ever make promises

because you can't keep them.

Okay? Now follow me to the call floor.

If you're wondering why security's so

tight, we're the ears and eyes of the city.

We're the link between every

human crisis and every first responder.

That's the Fire and Police Department.

If the Hive goes down,

this whole city goes dark.

Question here.

Why do they call it the Hive?

Listen. Hear all those

little worker bees?

Hey, what about Max?

You know he wants to bone you, right?

Oh, my God, Autumn.

Stop it, that's disgusting.

No, he doesn't.

Oh, he does.

No, he smokes

too much dope.

Dope?

Yeah.

Oh, my God, you're so cute. I'm not

telling you to make him your trainer.

Just come out with us Saturday night.

No. I don't like it when you set me up.

All right. Just trying to help you

since you never seem to help yourself.

I can help myself. You're not, like, my matchmaker.

I don't need you to be my mom here.

Oh, sh*t. I was supposed to pick

my brother up like 20 minutes ago.

What? No, you can't, you can't

leave now. I'm not even done yet.

Sorry.

Come on, you suck.

That was really good.

Call me later, okay?

Hey, I'm leaving the mall right now.

Idiot.

Why can't you just text me

like every other mom?

Yes, I know, I'm sorry, Mom,

but really, come on.

Yeah, I'm on my way home now.

I'll be home soon.

Okay. Love you too. Bye.

Whoa!

Oh, my God.

Jeez, I'm sorry.

Dude.

You didn't look before you backed up?

I didn't see you.

All right, whatever.

Oh, awesome, it's broken.

Perfect. Oh!

This here is Brooke.

She's a probie.

She was exactly where

you guys are six months ago.

How you liking the job,

Brooke?

It's definitely the hardest job

I've ever had.

- What's the hardest part?

- I guess the not knowing.

A lot of times

you don't know how it ends.

When units get to a scene, you sign off.

And they take over but you don't know.

I mean, did they make an arrest?

Shoot the bad guy?

Did the P.R. live? Did she die?

You'll get used to it.

911, where's your emergency?

Right here's where the P.R.'s

phone number comes up.

And the cell's GPS chip allows us

to get an exact lat-long coordinate

right here on this map.

Then over here, she can dispatch

the police to the scene at any time.

- Okay? Any questions?

- Yeah.

What about you, Ms. Turner?

What about me?

How come you're not out here

on the floor?

Because I'm the teacher.

Now, why don't you guys

follow me this way?

I'm gonna get you set up
