lots of lawyers in MIA. Going for a settlement of this lawsuit most likely.
Hyperosmia is a real thing. AKA Super Smellers. Mrs. boerne is one, poor woman. The article below says Super Smellers are rare, however they are not as rare as this article has said in my experience. It is quite possible that one or more super smellers were near them at the same time, and the whole ear phone thing went down and was temporally related.
I knew momma was a super smeller when we went to a "sensory evaluation of wine" 2 day course at UC Davis, and she could tell the demo bottle of Marlborough Sauv Blanc was corked before the instructor could.
