Rewrite this Scene: Sam Telling Big to Back Off

I love that Sam calls Big out for trying to cockblock Carrie and Ray, and that she’s a loyal protective friend. But I think the lines spoken in this scene are kinda weak. I hate that she exposes Carrie as “fragile” to her most complicated ex. It feels like a bit of a betrayal. Carrie would be pissed if she knew Sam called her fragile to Big. I also thing her bravado kinda wears thin when she leaves the conversation on a basic “excuse me.” It feels like she made her stand, but then limps off the battlefield.

If you agree, and we could rewrite these lines, what would you have Sam say instead?
