A Whumpee who is wearing a wire!
They’re caught. And Whumper notices the device. But instead of taking it off and crushing it, he smiles and just leaves it on. While torturing Whumpee to learn more about who’s listening on the other end.
And Caretaker can do nothing but listen :)
Bonus if after a while, (maybe after Whumpee’s been a defiant shit for hours and has taken it all well) Caretaker just hears a broken “No… no, no, please, PLEA–” and with a loud smash and crackle, the transmissions ends and Caretaker is going out of their mind with worry.
