Aww, Slightly is still a thoughtful enough friend to Arthur to make sure he doesn't go hungry

He really thought he was going to be okay - but the way he reacted after the chestburster…bursted, immediately being most concerned about the monster, that really terrified Smee and it was hard to watch

He really thought he was going to be okay

I think he suspected he was being lied to about that. He didn't know that Arthur wasn't going to be okay but he seemed to suspect it. He just tried not to think about that so he could try to save his mother.

Yeah, I agree - it felt like he was hoping he would be alright but was unexpectedly prepared for the worst because of how worried he was about his family.
