A man is inside a cage. He is holding off an animal with a whip and chair while another animal talks on a phone.
The animals appear to be sentient and one is using a phone.
What is the call about?
How many times do I have to tell you, don't call me at work!

In a circus act, a lion plays the part of a ferocious and scary animal --- but, this phone conversation humanizes the lion by pointing out that they are only acting/doing their job. As a result, they have everyday concerns about their employment, e.g., this lion is embarrassed that their spouse called them at work and seeks work-life separation.
