Well, it sounds to me like the agent might be speculating. How does he know whether or not anyone tried to call? No offense to the agent, but I'll take the word of the telephone records which would show a call placed if someone says they made a call.

American Airlines says they didn't call. At least not until the next day.

As will I, but what will it mean if the truth is that they placed the call, the USSS gave the response that everything was A-OK, and the agent was still kept off the plane? The only way this supports the pilot's position is if someone made the call and the verification could not be made, in which case there'd have been no story.
