Buy back...

Lois: The one time i actually depend on you,
and you flake on picking me up from the airport.

Clark: I'm really sorry.

Lois: Sorry? Sorry doesn't buy back (bring back?)the
last three hours i spent standing in a downpour...
...watching cheesy curbside reunions. Watching people kissing?
Clark: I can explain.

Lois: You e-mailed last night
to say you'd be there. What, do I need to tie a string
around your finger myself? That was an American tradition to tie a string on
your finger to remind you of something, wasn't it?

Your guesses are all right. it's difficlut to explain. I often use cheesy describing predictable movies that follow all the usual methods, especially low-budget horror movies.

I also assume that you understood 'curbside reunions' would be couples kissing 'at the curb when they meet each other after one of them had been away."
