Mr. Rooney's Phone Call (Ferris Bueller's Day Off)

Here's the story:
Ferris wants to skive off (bunk off) school. He wants to meet his girlfriend and go into town. He talks his friend into calling the school's principal Mr Rooney and pretending to be the girl's (Sloane's) father. The excuse he gives is that Sloane is needed at home because of her grandmother's death. Mr Rooney is convinced that he is talking to Ferris and he is not nice to him. Then Ferris calls him on another line - the secretary puts him through to Mr Rooney. The principal then has to apologise to 'the girl's father'... (Ferris' friend on the other line).
