Third-person: the camera above

The passage tells us Tom is furious and, separately, that his boss is pleased. These are inner feelings of two different characters.

Only an omniscient narrator can access the private thoughts and feelings of multiple characters, including ones in different locations.

Limited would stay with just Tom's feelings; objective would show only actions and dialogue, with no feelings named at all.

Since both characters' feelings are revealed directly, this passage is written in third-person omniscient.

Limited narration would restrict us to Tom's perspective only, but here we also learn the boss's private feelings.

Objective narration never names feelings directly, yet the text explicitly says Tom was furious and the boss was pleased.

There is no "I" narrator; both characters are referred to as "he," showing this is third-person, not first-person.

Because the narrator freely reveals two separate characters' inner feelings, omniscient is the correct classification.

Third-person objective narration reports only actions and dialogue, with no access to any character's thoughts or feelings.

Look for verbs like "wondered," "felt," or "imagined," which reveal internal states rather than pure external action.

Picking up a phone, dialing, and waiting silently are all observable actions with no stated thoughts or emotions attached.

This sentence describes only what can be seen and heard, matching the definition of third-person objective.

"Wondered if she had made the right choice" describes an internal thought process, which objective narration avoids entirely.

The use of "I" immediately signals first-person narration, not third-person of any kind.

"Felt a wave of relief" names an emotion directly, which objective narration deliberately withholds from the reader.

Only the phone-dialing sentence sticks strictly to observable action, making it the true example of objective narration.
