　　Milt: I just got a threatening phone call last night!

　　Seth: One of your many ex-girlfriends, no doubt.

　　Milt: I wish. No, it was a guy who claimed my brother had stolen his car. He knew my name, everything about me. He said he'd kill me if I don't wire him one hundred thousand dollars by midnight, tonight! I'm scared, man! He sounded like a gangster.

　　Seth: Whoa there, calm down. This is probably just another scam, don't you think?
