Harvest Moon Prank Calls
Today several random locations received a call from an anonymous caller who seemed to be confused with the number he was using... The following conversations were recorded:


***RING!***


"Hello, this is Sunny Island Animal Store."


"... What?"


"Hello?"


"Is Taylor there?"


"I'm sorry who?"


"Taylor! He sells seeds!"


"... We don't sell seeds here, sir."


"... But this is his number ..."


"Um, no sir ... you must've dialed wrong."


"No ... this is his number! Where is he!?"


"There's no one by the name of Taylor here sir."


"LIAR! That little brat owes me fifty-five bags of cabbage seeds!"


"..."


"... and an eggplant."


"Sir, where are you?"


"Waffle Island."


"...Well, that's halfway across the globe..."


"... What's your point?"


***Line gets cut***


***Re-dials***


"G'day! This is the Perch Inn! How can we help ya today?"


"... What happened to the lady?"


"Lady?"


"The lady of the animal store?"


"Um... I think you have a wrong number."


"This is the same number!"


"... Well son, this is the number for the Perch Inn ... so, not sure what to tell ya there."


"Nevermind, just give me Taylor."


"I'm sorry, who?"


"TAYLOR!"


"Taylor? ... I don't have any employees named Taylor here."


***background voice*** "You don't have any employees uncle..."


"Who was that?"


"Ah, that was just my niece being a smartpants."


"Look, I don't care what he's told you - just put him on!"


"Who?"


"TAYLOR!!!"


"There's no Taylor here!"


"LIAR! I HAVE HIS NUMBER RIGHT HERE!"


"Ok, I'm sorry sir ... but I don't think I can help you - have a good day."


"You son of a -"


***Line cuts out***


***re-dials***


"He -"


"#@$%^"


"Excuse me!?"


"..."


"Hello? Who is this!?"


"... Is Taylor there?"


"Taylor? This is Mayor Thomas of Flower Bud. Who are you?"


"..."


"Hello?"


"What's he paying you people..."


"Paying?"


"CUZ I'M REALLY GETTING TIRED OF THIS CRAP!"


"What?"


"YOU TELL THAT PUNK @$$ THAT HE'S DEAD WHEN I FIND HIM! DEAD!"


"I think you really need to calm down..."


***hangs up***




Further investigation into this incident revealed a young child by the name of Taylor redirecting phone calls to his shop to random individuals as a funny prank. Police discovered this after the boy called for 911 and was found being strangled by a young farmer. The attack lasted nearly half an hour until the farmer finally fell unconscious after 70 tranquilizers. No one was too seriously injured.
