Dr. Grumpy: "Thank you, let me see. So sleep has been an issue?"
Mr. Galliform: "Yeah, she's often up pacing the hall and mumbling."
Dr. Grumpy: "Is she still driving?"
Mr. Galliform: "Yes, and I'd like you to discuss it with her, she's had all kinds of problems, and I think she needs to stop. I wrote some of that down towards the bottom."

Mr. Galliform: "Um, she's still driving, and it's causing problems."
Dr. Grumpy: "NO! Here, you wrote 'she frequently locks turkeys in the car'! When did that start? Why turkeys? That's a new one to me."
Mr. Galliform: "WHAT? Let me see... Oh, that must be autocorrect, it should say 'she frequently locks her keys in the car.'"
Pause
Mr. Galliform: "I have to admit, your version is more interesting."
Dr. Grumpy: "I bet."
