At first, [[Black Hat]] appears to have misplaced his cell phone, as he asks [[Cueball]] to call it. However, when Cueball does call Black Hat's cell, it is revealed to be in Black Hat's (supposed) pocket. He then makes a show of ''annoyance'' that Cueball ("''this'' guy") is calling him, sends the call to {{w|voicemail}}, and leaves. From this, it might be inferred that Black Hat was simply trying to demonstrate that he doesn't ''want'' Cueball to call him, showing another of his ''[[72: Classhole|classhole]]'' tendencies, as Black Hat is quite often depicted as deliberately inconsiderate and rarely prone to actual carelessness. | At first, [[Black Hat]] appears to have misplaced his cell phone, as he asks [[Cueball]] to call it.

(This can also be seen as a play on words; when Black Hat asks "Can you call my cell?" he might not be requesting Cueball to call him but asking whether he's ''able'' to place a call on Black Hat's cell phone, in order to confirm that the answer is "No.") |
