Growing up, one of the mainstays of any mystery or thriller, was when the victim discovered the #telephonewire had been cut. The same scene over and over: they'd pick up the receiver, start stabbing the button trying to get a dial tone, and say repeatedly Hello? Hello? Hello?!
You knew they were in trouble then. 😀
What's the equivalent now? An unwanted text? No service?
