Answering machine

The answering machine was a device connected to the phone in the foyer to recording incoming phone calls, should the Greenbriars be unable to answer the phone.

There were three messages left on the answering machine; one from Katie announcing her arrival time, and two from Lonnie, asking for Sam. Between Katie leaving the message and her arrival home, it had not been deleted from the machine.

The messages
The first and second messages to play are from Lonnie. Initially, she only asks after Sam, and tries to get her to pick up. The second message has Lonnie tearfully begging Sam to pick up the phone. There is no record of the time between the messages. Lonnie did call a third time; however, Sam managed to pick up the phone before it rang out, thus negating the need for Lonnie to leave a message.

Katie's message plays third on the answering machine. It is the same message heard at the very beginning, and between Katie leaving it and arriving home, it is not deleted from the answering machine.

Yolanda's first message
''Sam? Sammm... hello? Sam!''

Yolanda's second message
''Sam... where are you...? Really? I need to talk to you.''

...Please be there.

Katie's message
''Hi Mom, so I got my flight back from Europe. I get back on June 6, but it's a really late flight because that was the cheapest, so it gets in at midnight. But don't worry, because I'll get a shuttle from the airport so you don't have to come pick me up. Like, really, seriously, you don't have to. Okay, so, love you, see you soon, bye!''
