Rescue Service
Rescue Service is an app on the NookPhone in Animal Crossing: New Horizons that the player can use to quickly travel to a different point of the island, which may be necessary if stuck between objects or lost. Each rescue costs 100 Nook Miles, but if the player does not have enough Nook Miles to cover the fee, they will be transported to a random location for free.
Calling the Rescue Service will give the player a choice of where to go: the Plaza, the Airport, the shop (provided it has been constructed), or the player's home. Once the player's has been transported to their chosen destination, the Operator will give the player some advice and say goodbye.
The Rescue Service cannot be used indoors, and cannot be used on Mystery Island Tours unless the player is on the May Day tour. For this tour only, the service will extract the player from the maze and drop them off at the island's dock. The maze will be reset so that the player may attempt it again from the beginning. All items in the player's inventory are removed, except for the gift received from Rover.
The Operator of the service is in fact Mr. Resetti, his theme music and voice is heard when calling and his distinctive helmet and nose are shown on the app icon. Resetti even refers to himself by name in some of his dialogue. On some occasions Don Resetti may answer instead, mentioning that he is temporarily filling in for his brother.
