Courtesy call

Patty called me during the screening of I Robot. I accidentally cut off the message and decided to call her back instead of calling my voicemail. Looking through my missed calls I redialed an unknown 914 number before realizing that wasn't a Los Angeles exchange. I looked up her work number and redialed.

When I rechecked my voice messages there was one from a man I didn't know. "This is a courtesy call," the message began. "I accidentally called your number earlier and just saw that you had tried to call me back. I had meant to dial 229 instead. There's no need to return this call."
