Your cockpit is quiet enough for you go hear your wxr scanning?! Which plane do you fly?

There was a time when it was said that the noisiest thing in a Rolls Royce was the clock. RR engines not fitted to A320 so it must be the Wx radar.

In a simulator session, the PM was told over the private intercom system not to call "Stable."
The PF release the brakes and started to trundle down the runway at 40% N1. The airspeed had reached about 45 knots and we had used up 1500 feet of runway when the PF looked across the cockpit to the PM and said accusingly "You forgot to call Stable."
Cue to freeze the simulator and say WTF


Out of curiosity, was PF expected to glance across, see that PM was awake, say WTF wake up, and advance to TOGA; or assume incapacitation and RTO?
