You slept over at your friends, who were notorious for prank calls. Same as last time, they dialed a random number, and when the person picked up they started insulting them.

After you got them to lay off, and the night got later, you felt guilty about the call. You recalled the number while your friends slept, apologizing to the person.

“Oh,” the man said when you finished. “For your apology, you get a pass.” You were confused, until… “I’m looking through the window now. This is your ten second head start…use it.”
