The caller was Sinclair.

It seemed he had seen her message because he immediately answered the phone, "Hey, Uncle, you want to help me move? Not right now, I'm at work, attending to a very important patient..."

Sinclair could immediately tell she was bluffing, so he cut straight to the chase, "Is your mom there?"
