Summary
Before he can think better of the action, Buck swipes to accept the call. He lifts his phone to his ear and, in a hoarse voice, says, "I'm not interested in buying my car an extended warranty. Actually, I'm not interested in buying anything unless it's a hefty life insurance policy I can enact within the next thirty seconds, so unless you've got that up your sleeve, go to hell, and stop taking advantage of poor idiots for their money."
For a long few seconds, the only response Buck receives is static. It crackles and hisses, but then there's a voice, weary, yet soft around the edges.
"Oh, wow," it says. "That is not what I was expecting at all."
Or: After having his leg crushed by a firetruck and his captain telling him he's unfit to work, Buck doesn't really see the point in anything anymore. That is, until his phone rings with an unknown number flashing across the screen, and a stranger by the name of Eddie Diaz makes him rethink everything.
