I've never had the chace to play D&D so can someone explain something to me. How does the party leader find you in the kitchen fighting a crab? I mean, you're all sitting there at the table I assume discussing your moves aloud. Do you whisper to the DM that you're doing that or do the others just RP and pretend they didn't hear you say you're going to the kitchen? Or is that something the DM makes up?
I've never seen anyone play before so I have no idea.

Well, you're all at the table, but your characters could be hundreds of miles away from one another. You're supposed to play as though your knowledge is limited to your character's knowledge. So, if you haven't been watching the drunken eladrin Rogue during his entire binge session, you probably don't know where he is. Also, the dude can teleport onto roofs and **** , so he might be able to pretty easily give you the slip even if you DO watch him. Also it could have gone like this:
DM: You become heavily inebriated.
Player: I teleport around town like a jackass.
DM: Does everybody follow?
Others: We stand by, watching and shaking our heads, then go do important **** like buying new gear. We'll find him later.
DM: Okay, later, you easily find him when an angry half-orc chef barrels out of the backdoor of a popular tavern to fetch a guard, grumbling something about "crazy knife-ears." You find EladrinRogue in the kitchen.
Player: I'm battling a crab with a spoon.
