Fortunately(?) Marina's yelling at least gives the thug pause, but it's not like Marina actually has a plan with this. Running to help is instinctive, throwing herself in between them comes more naturally than it really should; she's pretty sure that normally she'd run with her tail between her legs and call for help.

But her not plan starts to fall apart when she ends up between them just to take a knife in the gut.
