Antonia: Scoot onto

Hello,

Can you please help me? What does it mean in the context:

Sara pulled the top off the pudding as she scooted onto the counter.

I have another question. What does it mean ''That's not what we're all about" in the context:

Doctor(the detective's ex wife) telling to the detective (they are both working on the case of the murdered and raped young woman):

"College girls being raped, killing themselves. That's not what we're all about, is it?"

"I guess not."

2. That's not what we are interested in (since they are investigating murders, not suicides)

Hi, Pieanne,

1. I think it has to be something like that, although the subject is not a mouse:)

2. so, to be all about something means to be interested in?

Thank you for your time and effort
