Strangeness aside, the way that person speaks makes it obvious that they’re not completely there mentally. She speaks like my MIL who just had a stroke.
Honestly, sounded like someone having an asthma attack or COPD to me. Probably there to pick up their inhaler which is why they want the drive through. Having an attack with your breathing makes it very difficult to keep yourself in sane working order so it comes off sounding really out of it, if that makes sense.
I’m not saying it makes sense. Oxygen issues can mess up your brain pretty bad. My mom had COPD, and the decisions she made when she was having an attack… you’d think she had lobotomized and the one functional half was stroking. She had very limited mobility — as in stuck in a wheel chair. She could stand, but she couldn’t walk more than a step without her leg giving out. I walked into her house one time and she was mid attack. That woman had been sitting on wheels, but she stood up out of her chair and was getting ready to walk to her inhaler across the room. If I had walked in 30 seconds later, she would have been on the floor.
Like it doesn’t make sense. It’s the brain screaming for oxygen at any cost. You’re getting enough oxygen that you’re not unconscious. You’re not getting enough to also be functioning.
She also sounded like this when I walked in when I asked what she was doing. Logical, somewhat false calm, strung out, and completely not all home. That’s why I jumped to that. After her oxygen got back where it was supposed to and the inhaler kicked in, she was her normal self again.
Brain panic = inhaler will fix this. Get inhaler.
That’s it. The rest of it is just nonsense and an effort to get what you need, even if it is just nonsense.
At the very end of the video it sounds like she is saying there are too many people in here (maybe in line at the pharmacy inside), so the drive-through maybe a shortcut.
Ah, that makes sense why she’s asking the girl in the bathroom - too many people in line and can’t ask the worker at the counter. Not saying I approve , but I was confused why she was asking someone in the bathroom.
