In the scene from "The Calling" by Kelley Armstrong, Antone expresses concern about the group's drinking, emphasizing the need to remain alert. He has made a conscious choice to drink water instead of alcohol, suggesting that the situation requires their full awareness. His statement reflects a serious tone, highlighting the importance of responsibility in their actions.

Moreno, however, dismisses Antone's caution with humor, joking about potential threats like "killer bunnies." This playful retort ends up irritating the unnamed woman, who chides Moreno for his lack of seriousness. The exchange illustrates the tension between the need for vigilance and the tendency to deflect anxiety with humor.
