    Called into- incorrect phrase usage. Call something over - Read out a list of names to determine those present. Call something off - Cancel an event or agreement. Call on - Demand that (someone) do something. We can see that only option D can make the sentence meaningful. C does not make the sentence grammatically correct. Option D is the right answer
