Sarah probably needed a phone that wasn't from 2005 and probably fried in some interesting way from all the times she'd used her powers on it. Because she was distinctly sure that she'd just said "|call Alex|" and yet, well. Not that she knew the call was headed in the wrong direction, but it was.

(Not being lazy enough to clamp the phone between her shoulder and her ear while she went about rummaging through her fridge so she wouldn't have had to use her powers might've helped too.)
