'to see' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with communicating as well as being verbs in their base form.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'cold and exhausted' is the wordplay.
'cold' becomes 'C' (eg on taps).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'exhausted' becomes 'all in' ('all in' can mean exhausted).
'c'+'allin'='CALL IN'

'go' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for call in that I've seen before include "Drop by" , "Visit" .)
