Where, oh where, has my Marc gone?

I asked Marc to call me after he finished playing street hockey today, as he was supposed to come over here after. Theoretically, the game finished around 5. It's now 7, and still no call. As I was listing off a few possibilities for why this might be, my friend Ari challenged me to write ever-more-unlikely scenarios for why Marc still hasn't called. For posterity, here's the list (they start getting outlandish around letter "o"):

Hm.. Marc still hasn't called.  I wonder if that means
a) His street-hockey game ran late;
b) He's going home to shower first (even though I told him he could do it here);
c) He's on his way here and forgot to call me; or
d) He met up with someone and got caught up having coffee with them, or something.
[At this point, Ari challenges me: "I want to play a game where I make you list more and more possibilities, progressively more unlikely, but I'm not sure you would play along." I respond: "Okay, let's see how many alphabet letters I can go through."]
e) He decided to tag along with everyone else to the metro and didn't get a chance to use the phone first (he has no cell);
f) He only remembered to call once he got on the metro, and thus had no opportunity;
g) The metro stalled, and he's trapped somewhere in the tunnels under the city;
h) He decided to walk to his place -- 45 minutes -- and forgot to call;
i) He got injured at the game and is icing his knee at his host's house;
j) He got injured at the game and had to go to the hospital;
k) Someone *else* got injured at the game and he went with them to the hospital;
l) A new girl showed up at the game, he was smitten, and he decided to "treat her for coffee";
m) The ball / puck flew into the host's window, and he stuck around to do damage control;
n) The ball / puck flew into someone *else's* window, and he stuck around to do damage control;
o) someone was injured, an ambulance was called, and he got to speaking with the paramedics, who let him travel around with him for the day;
p) The area where they play street hockey was being used to film a movie, and he was recruited as an extra;
q) While on the set of the movie, someone decided that he had the perfect lumberjack frame and he's auditioning for the lead role in a major movie;
r) He was chosen off the street for a reality TV show, and is spending the next month in a luxurious mansion... but he's not allowed to have phone contact with the outside world;
s) There was an all-out gang war in Verdun, and he was recruited to huddle innocent bystanders to safety, to escape the bullet ricochet; 
t) All the times he's been off at "hockey," he's actually been working as a male stripper to save money to go on an all-expenses-paid trip around the world, and he had a few "special" customers today;
u) While waiting for the bus, there was a massive shock wave in the metro system, and he's stuck on the wrong side of 12 metres of rubble;
v) He suddenly had an epiphany, discovered his inner feminine side, and immediately decided to go to the clininc to get a sex change;
w) As he was waiting for the bus to his place, he was mistaken for a famous European world leader and kidnapped for ransom money;
x) Seeing his hockey stick, police naturally assumed he was up to acts of vandalism and arrested him without bail -- in a secret underground facility.  I'll never see him again.;
y) The US government was testing out secret satilite-to-ground precision laser systems, but someone forgot to convert from imperial to metric, thus instead of hitting Iraq, they hit Verdun;
z) He was abducted by aliens, took over their ship, and is now on a galaxy-wide sightseeing spree... and didn't even think to ask if I wanted to come along.
The bastard.
