When a friend is around the opposite sex and their significant other calls them. And then they walk away about 50 yards and talks very quietly on the cell phone to avoid being in "trouble".

This term also includes :

Going outside to talk on the phone, to the restroom etc..
Brandon - "Yo where's Squanto? Linda is asking for him."
