"Brat! You stupid little---" the voice trailed off and there was the sound of flesh striking flesh. Then, a boy cried out in pain.

"Shut up! You're pathetic! You're good-for-nothing! No wonder nobody wants you!" the voice roared. Tommy let out a groan.

"Hey, Ernie. You mind if I use the phone for a sec? It's kind of important," he stated.

"Yeah, sure, Tommy," Ernie agreed. The man handed the boy the receiver and he started dialing a number. Then, after listening for a brief moment, "Yeah. I'd like to make a complaint about a man named Andrew Garret."
