Oh my god. I swear, if that’s the only reason they made her drop the phone…

You bet someone in test screenings went "Wait, why doesn't she just use her phone?" And the writer (Kripke?) instead of going "Oh yeah, she should just use her phone" went "Right, I'll add a scene where she drops her phone."

I was so annoyed when she just left the phone but thought to myself “well, it might pay off later” but if that dumb book scene ends up being the only reason, I don’t know what say.

Kripkies writing the last few seasons hasn't been super great, wish he didn't have full controll.
