[The distracting or the mauling? (Both. It's both.) He's helping, probably. He's at least gotten himself back to where he'd left off in rapid-fire, and the last of it is falling into place a little quicker as he narrows down the options. (Slot a, tab b. Et cetera.) The lava-bull wrangling may be above his physical paygrade, but he's a sharp guy. Puzzle-locks are actually kind of within his skillset.]
Almost there. Hold out a few more seconds, big guy, and you can have the next go.
