Even if she said it, and she probably did...he shouldn't have repeated it like this. That is much cruder than what she said. She invites you to the Palace, talks to you like a friend, and then you diss her in public. Why am I not surprised.
Yes. You're right, Hildy, although I doubt that she said it (in public).
What's more, she was expressing concern over the gun wound he suffered chasing down a purse theif in New Orleans (his girlfriend's purse).
And that is the way he treats her expression?
