Jack watches Dorin's face change, how his smile becomes fuller as he talks about Noah. It's sweet—both the change as it occurs across Dorin's face and the sentiment behind it. And it makes Jack feel bad in comparison, meeting Dorin's sincerity with insincerity as he replies, "Yeah. I came here for Annie."
Technically true, but not true in the way Dorin is asking. So Jack is grateful to add, "And of course, that sounds fun. We should all hang out."
Here he pauses, frowns slightly, because while Annie and Noah must know each other she hasn't mentioned him as a close friend. Or even a friend. But that's probably nothing; Jack assumes Annie can get along with anyone.
Jack shifts, crossing his arms as he glances back into the combat training room. Nothing life-threatening seems to be underway. He turns back to Dorin again. "What do you mean, 'came out here for you?'" he asks, trying to be conversational.
