  26. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Anything wrong with the things that I've said?


  27. PETER: OMG!


  28. Immediately, the PACK LEADER comes to Kaji's rescue and checks her elbows.


  29. PACK LEADER (Crying): Are you alright?


  30. KAJI (V.O.) (Embarrassed): I believe so. I could stand on my legs.
