Except that dispatch is informed ahead of time what is going on and they are told to just play along and that a physical response is not needed.

And the necessary call that couldn't be answered because of this?

Every dispatcher I've ever met is perfectly capable of looking at the queue of calls and, if anyone is waiting, saying, "I'm sorry. I have another emergency to deal with. Goodbye."

If you are saying that you know of a dispatcher that cannot tell real-life from a TV show, you should report them immediately.

Although I suspect that you are playing the old "what-if" game without any real-world incidents to back it up. Right?

Reading the paper can really be depressing. Mr. Dithers fired Dagwood again.
