I spelled the way Lori replies to Toshi wrong on purpose to try to express that she isn't getting it right. I don't speak Japanese, so I had to look this stuff up to the best of my ability. If I've messed it up, beyond what I intended, please let me know.

This is what I went off of:

When meeting a respected for the first time in Japan, you may say oai dekite kouei desu. This means “delighted to meet you” and is pronounced oh-aye dic-tish-te ko-ee dis.
