* A woman is taking a shower when the lock on the door breaks, trapping her in the bathroom. The woman's five-year-old daughter had to call 911.
** Not only that, but after the rescuers arrived, she called 911 again because she was scared they were taking too long and her mom would be trapped in the bathroom forever. She was also hungry and was worried her mom wouldn't be able to make her and her little brother lunch. The next scene in the reenactment shows one of the firefighters sitting at the table eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with the kids.

Then the real dispatcher gets on the talking head part and says he remembers double checking that this was what he was supposed to tell the first-responding police.
** The segment ends with the real Christmas Card the couple sent out... They weren't making it up!
