I have a friend who will go full tilt speaking Spanish fast as she can til they hang up.
Couple of times she has reverted to a hushed voice saying she can’t talk on the telephone. She doesn’t want her husband to catch her breaking the rules and she’s really. “Please! I can’t be on the phone or I’ll be in so much trouble. “
“Please, Please don’t call agai. I think he taps our phones”
Police showed up one day. After I explained what happened they couldn’t stop laughing.
Funny as hell when she does that.
ROTFLMAO!
I do something similar with calls from Credit Card Services when they say something like “this is your second and final warning”.
I start to “cry” and say that my husband will beat me if there’s a problem with our credit cards. Crying frantically, “He’ll lose his job because of his security clearance.” “What am I gonna do?!? What am I gonna do?!?” Then I hear CLICK.
Still... the calls continue.
Stella?
