Because, as far as Ando is concerned, Hiro hasn't been missing at all. Nor is he back at the office, and there's not much time left before the phone call takes place. So unless Hiro tells him to go back and take the call, and what to say, it ain't gonna happen. If he does, I'm done with the show.My predictions:Matt will start reading the bad guys' minds and tell them what they want to hear to fuel their paranoia and gain their trust. After all, they've lied to him and obviously have no intention of letting him go.Linderman will make sure Nathan never leaves the building alive, because he knows he can't trust him. After all, he's spilled at least part of his Evil Master Plan, so what's to prevent Nathan from going directly to the Secret Service and telling what he knows? Nothing. And der SS is just likely to have Linderman assassinated.Lindy will also have Niki/Jessica offed, as she is not reliable.Mr. Bennet will haul out his gun, close his eyes, and start blasting away. Why not, he's a dead man anyway, may as well try to take some of his executioners with him. (Why close his eyes? So he won't be distracted by any illusions. Hey, it worked for one of the bosses during the Tong Wars!)Oh, did I mention that these are things I predict won't happen? Every time someone on the show has to make a choice between doing something obviously intelligent (or the right thing), or doing something stupid (or self-detrimantal), they almost invariably choose the latter. I except Hiro and Claire from the above blanket statement. He's deliberately trying to be a hero and she's a teenager in a really messed up situation where there probably aren't any right answers. (And Ando, because he's a sidekick!  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> )And Yeah, Ando for the win in this episode!</blockquote>
