Emily: I'm sorry if we're late. I had this awful surgery yesterday, and today has been a nightmare.
Lorene: Oh, I hope you're feeling all right.
Lorelai: Oh, she's fine. Dragging that cross around made her a little tired.
Emily: Lorene, this is my daughter, Lorelai. She has headaches, and that tends to make her babble.
Lorene: Oh, I'm sorry. Can I get you some aspirin?
Lorelai: Oh, no, thanks. I'm okay. I've had the headache for 38 years.
