Losing her cool?

Greek woman shouting loudly at security staff. Her bag was being searched. Then she was taken to a booth, the size of a Tardis style police box. The sound of voices emerged. Then the door opened and she strutted away. She had sounded really annoyed, as though she was losing her cool. But the way she later strutted calmly away suggested that she was just making as point.

I thought back to the time I was in a Greek taverna. Raised voices amongst the regulars. I asked a friend who lived on the island what the loud discussion (argument?) was about. "They are talking about fish", he said!
