About a line in a TV drama which is hard to understand


In the 2nd episode of "Tokyo Love Story", from 26:55 to 27:00

「いやだね、この？」

What is the word/phrase after 「この」?




It sounds like 人間キャッチホン (or 人間キャッチフォン) to me.
[キャッチホン](https://www.nttdocomo.co.jp/service/communication/catch_phone/) is
the Japanese term for ["call
waiting"](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_waiting).

I haven't watched the full episode, but this would make sense in context if
Satomi (the woman in the apron) is "putting Mikami on hold" while she gets
closer to Nagao, or something to that effect.

The meaning of this idiom is pretty transparent (once you know what キャッチホン
means), but I have no idea whether it is common - hopefully a native speaker
and/or person who lives in Japan can chime in. There are about a dozen Google
results for
[`"人間キャッチホン"`](https://www.google.com/search?q=%22%E4%BA%BA%E9%96%93%E3%82%AD%E3%83%A3%E3%83%83%E3%83%81%E3%83%9B%E3%83%B3%22)
and about a dozen more for
[`"人間キャッチフォン"`](https://www.google.com/search?q=%22%E4%BA%BA%E9%96%93%E3%82%AD%E3%83%A3%E3%83%83%E3%83%81%E3%83%95%E3%82%A9%E3%83%B3%22),
for what it's worth.
