A request to the stewardess, repeated, for cold water or other drink, air conditioning, or take me off this

What do I do?
There seem to be no guidelines for length of time and excess temperatures.
Help!
Don’t insist on a cold drink. Room temperature water will hydrate you just as well as a cold drink, even if it doesn’t feel as good.
