Hi there, can I speak to Luke Burbank in room 730, please?

0:14.0

One moment.

Hi, this is a wake up call for Mr. Burbank, a Mr. Lucky Burbank.

I actually had called earlier and asked you guys to cancel it, so I guess my morning is pretty much ruined.

0:31.0

I was in a deep state of restful slumber, and now this...
