It could also be the last time I get to talk to the people at my dinner table. This actually happened to us at breakfast one time, with the sudden death of a friend happening later in the day.

So who's to say whose "last conversation" takes precedence--the diners' or the cell phone user's? I say it comes down to the location. You are in a restaurant, so the diners take precedent. Take your cell phone conversation outside.
