Seeing the phone drop, Archie pulled out his own and start dialing even as Pongo gave that whine that told him that further steps needed to be taken. "You didn't but you're getting it anyway."
The server came out and saw him on the phone.
"I'm sorry, but we need to go. You and your coworker can have those if you want it."
"Oh," she said, clearly concerned. She glanced at Gold uncomfortably. "I hope you feel better, sir."
She retreated as the operator picked up with a "911, what's the nature of your emergency?"
"I need an ambulance at..." He gave the address. "Potential stroke victim. Older male."
"Ambulance is on the way. What are his symptoms?"
Archie calmly got up and bent down to pick up Gold's flip phone, pocketing it for the moment. "Severe headache, light sensitivity, difficulty walking, difficulty with basic motor skills in the hands." He paused and knelt in front of Gold to look him in the face. "Gold, I need you to do a few things for me, okay? Just to give the paramedics a baseline so they can start treating you once they get here."
