I'm sorry, what?

We were having sharing time, and one student brought a mini-keyboard thing. She was explaining why it was important to her, and seemed to lose track of where she was:

"It's important to me because it can make this sound" she plays a key "and this sound" plays another key "and also because my grandmother gave it to me before..."

"Before?" I innocently prompt.

"Yeah, before. Before she went to hell." she finishes, totally seriously, perhaps not even noticing the language.

Oh, wow. Yeah, I chose to roll with that one, rather than try to explore that issue.
