Thankfully , Hogarty was n’t in any actual danger , and was mostly curious about what Alexa would do if he postulate her to call 999 ( the UK equivalent of 911 ) on his behalf . He also could n’t even successfully ordinate a gas using his Echo , but it did successfully add it to his shopping list , for the next time he visits the gunman fund .
