Instead of passing a Type to DoExecute() and creating an instance

No because the class needs to be able to create instances of the specified
type in response to external events (in this case, phone calls.)

It still sounds like you could use type safe instance creation, like:

DoExecute<TScriptCall>() where TScriptCall : ScriptCallBase {
TScriptCall scriptCall = new TScriptCall();
scriptCall.OverriddenMethod();
}

....and invoke it thusly:

DoExecute<ScriptCallInbound>();

My point is that compile-time type safety in my experience usually
saves nine.
