Austin: And then that's when the--
Tanner: Hi, guys!
- Oooh, someone got a haircut!
- Good to see you, man.
- Oh, hello!
Oh Tanner, the 1950s called.
They said they want their hairdo back.
[mingled laughter]
- Hello!
Oh Jetta, that's so weird.
Uh, the '90s called.
They want their terrible joke back.
[laughter]
- Hello!
[chuckle]
Yeah, he's here.
It's for you.
[nervous chuckle]
- Hello.
Yeah, this is him.
Who is this?
- Probably the 1950s again, they still want their--
[table slamming]
[tense music]
- Yeah, I'm listening, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
- Tanner, who is it?
- Yes.
I understand, just please.
[dramatic music]
Please don't hurt my friend.
- Hurt who?
Tanner, what is going on?
- They have Dalton.
- Who has Dalton?
Tanner: I don't know.
They're holding him hostage, they're demanding money.
I don't know.
Austin: How do we know he's okay?
- We gotta talk to him.
- What are--what--
- Just put Dalton on the phone, man!
- No, Matthew, I need you to stand down!
- He's my friend!
- He's all of our friend!
Ike: Hey!
Enough, both of you.
Jess, Tori, call your contacts at the PD and the FBI.
We're gonna need support on this, okay?
- On it.
This is Pence, let me talk to the chief.
I don't care if he's busy.
Get him on the line now!
- Tell Barker I am calling that favor in now.
We have an active hostage situation.
Tanner: You're gonna give us
the numbers to your offshore account
so we can wire the money.
Yes, I understand.
- How long would it take you guys to trace the call?
We need to know where this is coming from.
- It's gonna be tricky.
- At least a minute.
- Just do it.
- Too late.
They hung up.
[bucket clanging]
[items slamming]
[clock ticking]
They're gonna call back in a second
with the account numbers, okay?
- And what if they don't call back?!
Then Dalton's a goner!
And it's game over, man!
Ike: Hey!
[slapping]
Pull yourself together!
They will call!
And when they do,
I need you to keep them on the line
for a full sixty seconds.
That's how long it's gonna take them
to trace the call.

[light knocking]
- Hello?
[whispering] It's them.
- We'll tap in on the extension.
Austin.
- Okay, I'm tracking.
- Yeah, we've got a trace on them.
I'll let you know.
- Fifty seconds.
- Wait, before we wire the money,
I need to hear his voice.
I need to know he's okay.
Just put him on the line.
- [whispered] Forty seconds.
- I said put him on the line, or it's no deal!
I need to hear my friend's voice!
[peaceful music]
Hey, Dalton.
Hey, buddy.
How're you doing?
- Hey, hey, Dalton!
Hang in there, buddy!
Okay?
Hey, we love you.
We love you.
- It's okay.
All right, I'm ready.
You can give me the numbers now.
All right, whoa, whoa, uh, uh s-s-slow down.
I need--I need a pen to write these down.
- Thirty seconds.
- N-n-no, that's okay, that's okay.
Don't--don't hang up!
Just give me the numbers!
Three.
One.
Five.
Six.
Eight.
- [whispered] Twenty seconds.
- Uh, uh, wait!
I forgot the last two numbers.
Wait, was it--was it five-- was it six?
- Just ten more seconds, ten more seconds.
- No, don't hang up, please!
No, no, no, no, I wasn't trying to trick you.
Please don't!
[tense music]
They hung up.
I'm so sorry.
[sniff]
[clock ticking]
[hopeful music]
I got it!
On the corner of Spangler and Price!
- Yeah, yeah, yeah,
the corner of Spangler and Price, yeah!
Cops are on their way.
I can hear the sirens.
They're breaking down the door.
[yelling] They got him!
[various audible sighs of relief]
Dalton's saved!
[joyous exclamations]
They're bringing him home.
[joyous exclamations continue]
All: [shouting] Dalton!
[screaming]
Tanner: Oh, buddy!
Austin: Oh my gosh.
- Hello?
[tense music]
Okay.
[clock ticking]
Okay.
That was the boss.
He says stop wasting time,
the scripts are due by 6:00.
[disappointed grunting]
[indistinct chatter]
Tanner: I didn't do anything!
Austin: Yes you did!
Tanner: I was playing along.
[indistinct chatter]
Oh really?
That's crazy.
- Who is it?
- It's my mom.
She's telling me you can, uh, download the free BYUtv app
for more content just like this.
- Huh.
- Yeah.
Hey Mom, while you're at it,
will you leave a comment in the comment section below,
uh, what your favorite conversation
you've ever had on the phone was?
MIne's this one.
Goodbye, Tracy.
I love you.
