appropriate phrase
Hi. I would like you to choose one phrase you would use in this situation and tell me why and why not: You are in trouble at the meeting and look for someone ( A) who may solve it. You couldn't catch A, but fortunately, you found someone(B) who knows where A is. You ask B where A is, and B answers A is in a meeting. You would say..
1. Please ask him to come over, thank you.
2. Bring him here!
3. Could you bring him here?
Info: Your position is high, but you are not B's boss. B is a staff in a department next you.

Your company has too many meetings! Anyway, I'd say: B, we really need A's expertise (input) here. Could you please go and pull him (her) out of his (her) meeting?
