            I’m confuddled. How does the aforementione sister ‘unthaw’ by taking out of the freezer?

            Or is it that she doesn’t realize she’s not understanding what she’s saying?

              I think it’s the latter. Or she just kept saying it after realizing it was wrong because she’s used to it or it’s funny.

          Thawing is the act of allowing it to warm up from frozen.

          In this case, she is saying “unthaw” instead of “thaw”.
