[ Before Pratt's done talking, Ami lets out a quiet gasp that her mic doesn't pick up. Because Carlisle just took off his mask. ]
Oh my god.
[ Belatedly, though, she half registers what Pratt just told her. Distract him? ]
I - okay.
[ Okay. She can do that. Is a rock gonna be enough, though? He went after her before, that seems like a surer bet. ]
Okay. I think I can draw him off.

Besides, the alternative is to stand around watching her zombified friend eat those poor stupid birds alive. And that is not her idea of a good time. ]

Hey! Forget about someone your own size!?
[ Okay, maybe not so snappy. But she's not gonna hear anything from his end until he catches up with them. ]
