1 -- LPC: Hey, TV repair?
2 -- TV Repairman: Yes.
3 -- LPC: Yeah, my TV's in need of a factory reset.
4 -- LPC: I got errors and defects and glitches and miscoding going on with my television set.
5 -- TV Repairman: What brand is it?
6 -- LPC: Hitachi.
7 -- LPC: All right?
8 -- TV Repairman: How old is it?
9 -- LPC: And whenever I turn up the volume, it changes the contrast on the dang thing.
10 -- LPC: When I change the channel, it changes the volume.
11 -- LPC: All right?
12 -- TV Repairman: Okay, yeah.
13 -- TV Repairman: Who told you it needed a factory reset?
14 -- LPC: Well, I called Energy Star.
15 -- TV Repairman: Energy who?
16 -- LPC: Energy Star.
17 -- TV Repairman: Who's Energy Star?
18 -- LPC: You know, the efficiency people.
19 -- TV Repairman: Well how do they have anything to do with your TV?
20 -- LPC: So I called them and they said get a factory reset and call this guy here.
21 -- LPC: You're supposed to help me with this thing here.
22 -- TV Repairman: Yeah, it doesn't mean a factory reset.
23 -- TV Repairman: You need somebody to come see what the problem is.
24 -- LPC: I'll tell you what the problem is.
25 -- LPC: I got quantum dots all over the place.
26 -- LPC: I got a rainbow effect.
27 -- LPC: When I go to turn the channel, it changes the volume.
28 -- TV Repairman: So you got a bad switch.
29 -- LPC: And when I go to turn the contrast, it changes to picture in picture, except it's the same show, big and small.
30 -- TV Repairman: This is what we do, okay?
31 -- TV Repairman: We come out and check and see what you need.
32 -- TV Repairman: What you're describing can be a couple of things, but not factory reset.
33 -- LPC: I'm going to need an emitter.
34 -- LPC: That's one thing I do know.
35 -- LPC: I need an emitter, all right?
36 -- TV Repairman: Who is this?
37 -- TV Repairman: Is this a joke or something?
38 -- LPC: No, I'm serious about getting this thing fixed.
39 -- LPC: Energy Star said you'd help me out.
40 -- TV Repairman: Yeah, I don't know who Energy Star is, okay?
41 -- LPC: Oh, they're real efficient people.
42 -- LPC: Real efficient.
43 -- LPC: Company-wide.
44 -- TV Repairman: Where are you located?
45 -- LPC: I'm in Bontemps.
46 -- TV Repairman: No, well you got to call somebody else.
47 -- TV Repairman: I'm in New Orleans.
48 -- LPC: I'm twenty minutes away.
49 -- LPC: I'm in Bontemps, Louisiana.
50 -- TV Repairman: Yeah, we don't go that far.
51 -- TV Repairman: You need to call somebody closer.
52 -- LPC: It's twenty minutes away.
53 -- TV Repairman: You just said forty minutes and twenty or forty.
54 -- LPC: Forty round trip.
55 -- LPC: Are you trying to trip me up or are you scared of a little work?
56 -- TV Repairman: Yeah, I don't know who this is.
57 -- LPC: This is Thorpe, and I've got a V chip.
58 -- LPC: now that's native, but with Atmos running on the thing, I think maybe that's where I started getting these nanocrystals.
59 -- TV Repairman: Okay, you know what you got?
60 -- TV Repairman: You probably got a bad switch, is what you sound like.
61 -- TV Repairman: When a switch goes bad, it takes the digital and changes the impromptu information to give the computer chip the wrong information.
62 -- LPC: Well, it takes about thirty six hours for the TV to turn on.
63 -- LPC: Listen, I'm just going to bring this unit to you and you can check it out.
64 -- LPC: All right, I'll drop it off.
65 -- TV Repairman: We don't take them in.
66 -- TV Repairman: I'm not here.
67 -- TV Repairman: I don't sit in the shop.
68 -- TV Repairman: When are you going to bring it?
69 -- TV Repairman: What address?
70 -- LPC: Today.
71 -- TV Repairman: What address?
72 -- LPC: Well, I'm going to be there in twenty minutes.
73 -- LPC: Unless you want.
74 -- TV Repairman: Okay, goodbye.
75 -- LPC: What's the matter?
76 -- LPC: You going to call Energy Star or what?
77 -- TV Repairman: Yeah, I'm going to call Energy Star and see what they say.
78 -- LPC: I'm going to call them on you.
79 -- LPC: All right.
80 -- LPC: And report you for not helping me.
81 -- LPC: Like they said, they're the ones who gave me your number.
82 -- TV Repairman: Look, I don't know what your game is.
83 -- TV Repairman: You're not making sense.
84 -- TV Repairman: You're saying things that TVs don't do.
85 -- TV Repairman: I'm a TV man.
86 -- TV Repairman: What we do is come out and see what you need.
87 -- TV Repairman: The customers usually don't call us and give us all this, you know, uh, and Energy Star never heard of them.
88 -- TV Repairman: Well, why would I ask you questions?
89 -- TV Repairman: You won't answer them.
90 -- TV Repairman: I asked you how old the TV was.
91 -- TV Repairman: You never answered.
92 -- TV Repairman: You got an old TV that the switches used to go bad in.
93 -- TV Repairman: I try to help you.
94 -- TV Repairman: You telling me what's wrong with it.
95 -- TV Repairman: If you're telling me what's wrong with it, you don't need me.
96 -- TV Repairman: You know what's wrong with it.
97 -- TV Repairman: If Energy Star told you to do a factory reset
98 -- TV Repairman: All you got to do is a factory reset.
99 -- TV Repairman: You don't need me.
100 -- LPC: It's a 13.3 inch.
101 -- LPC: Oh, all right.
102 -- TV Repairman: I work on thirteen inch TVs.
103 -- LPC: What do you think that's funny or something?
104 -- TV Repairman: We don't work.
105 -- TV Repairman: This is a joke.
106 -- LPC: Listen, my name's Thorpe.
107 -- LPC: All right.
108 -- LPC: I can give you a credit card deposit over the phone.
109 -- LPC: I need an emitter is what I need.
110 -- LPC: And I need anti-blur installed on there.
111 -- TV Repairman: Yeah, no, I can't help you.
112 -- LPC: I got quantum dots everywhere.
113 -- LPC: It's distracting.
114 -- LPC: It's so distracting.
115 -- LPC: I can't take it anymore.
116 -- LPC: I got quantum dots up in there.
117 -- TV Repairman: You need to call Hitachi then.
118 -- TV Repairman: Call Hitachi, they'll be able to help you.
119 -- LPC: They're out of business.
120 -- TV Repairman: Well, I don't do quantum dots anymore.
121 -- TV Repairman: I quit doing quantum dots.
122 -- LPC: Oh, yeah?
123 -- LPC: What about subsampling?
124 -- TV Repairman: No, we don't do any of that no more.
125 -- TV Repairman: My subsampler quantum dot machine's broken.
126 -- LPC: Hey, man, I got after imaging up the yin-yang over here.
127 -- LPC: You got me figured out?
128 -- TV Repairman: Yeah, I got you figured out.
129 -- TV Repairman: You know, I don't have time for this.
130 -- LPC: I got a native V chip and I can't run my Atmos on it.
