This is one of the needlessly long scenes you'll face in the game; keep in mind that, while there's an option to make dialogue text appear faster, there's no such option for character animations, and cutscenes cannot be skipped (it's an old game after all). So enjoy watching Rena walking back and forth while the others just stand there looking at her and saying nothing.
Claude feels confident of his strength (i.e. he's gained enough levels), so he decides to rest at the Lacour inn: you can actually spend all the time you want around the world, and the Tournament will always be "the day after" (it's just a commodity for the player, so that s/he doesn't have to worry about time elapsing, I wouldn't do without it in most JRPGs). Claude seems excited enough about the Tournament, but Rena is the one who's the most nervous; but only Celine can figure out why, Claude is either too dumb or too focused on the Tournament to understand.
That said, Rena IS a bit weird, just look at these two screens:
Yeah, Rena, your mother really worries too much about you; she shouldn't have tried to stop you from going to the Shingo forest. After all, if an interstellar traveler equipped with a deadly Phase Gun hadn't shown up right that instant, and if he hadn't had enough courage and will to save you, you would only have been raped by a giant gorilla!
Parents can be such a hassle...
