(With a pleasant smile)

Hey sis, did you miss me? That’s my pal, Wally. Was telling him about you, and he insisted you all meet. Think he wants to be your pal too. And damn, Abby, I gotta be honest – you look like you could really use a friend about now. Especially one that can stop bullets from blowing your brains out. Ain’t that true, Wally?

(Pauses, but no response)

Sorry, probably shouldn’t distract him right now.
