On the Line
Synopsis
Over time, Agnes gleans information from other callers, piecing together what has happened and comes to believe Martha, a nurse at the care home, has been kidnapped by Harold, a workman there. Agnes uses her powers of deduction and local knowledge to help the police track the abduction. But things take a turn for the worse when she realises everything is not as it seems. Eventually, the police locate Martha but not Harold. He has returned home to take his own life. With new information, Agnes calls and talks him down by sharing her experiences. Her day ends with both Harold and Agnes having new hope for the future.
