"Good," Brooke says mostly to herself. Kids shouldn't have weapons. Definitely not weapons capable of taking down scorpions. She'll just have to assume this is a different Alan, one who can protect Tavia better.
She notes how quiet Tavia's gotten and follows her lead. "Which way does Alan live? Do you think we can get there by car?" ...Wait, no. "Crap. Never mind. It's right where I parked. Okay. New plan." New plan. Keep kiting the scorpion? And try to get Tavia to safety. That's the same plan, come on, Brooke, think of something!
"Okay. You point me to where Alan lives. I'll try to get you there. If it follows us, I'll run back to my car and pick you up and bring you there." She's breathing much more heavily than she'd planned on today. Hopefully her lack of recent exercise won't screw her tonight.
