"Hi, could I talk to Elliott Smith's sister?"
"Sure, hang on..."
[...]
"Hello?"
"Hi, are you Elliott Smith's sister?"
"Yeah, what do you want?"
"I heard on the Internet that your brother committed suicide, is that true?"
"Oh, hang on, I haven't heard, but let me try his cell..."
[...]
"Hey, you still there?"
"Yeah."
"Well, I called his cell and he didn't answer, and I called home and no one answered, so I called his bowling buddies and they haven't heard from him, so I don't know."
"Oh."
"Sure hope not, though. That would suck!"
"Yup."
"Well, OK, I have to get back to work."
"OK, thanks, Elliott Smith's sister!"
"You're very welcome, good night!"
