"Decelerate!"

From another forum:
"There is something I don't get from the transcript.

18:48:33.3
HOT-1 look this.

18:48.34.4
HOT-2 decelerate, decelerate.

18:48:35.9
HOT-1 it can't, it can't.



My point is: "Look this" means something is weird ? What could the pilot be refering to ? And the answer, decelerate, decelerate. Decelerate is not break, right? Wouldn't decelerate mean pull back the throtle? And if that is the idea, why the answer I can't, I can't ?

Is the throtle locked in it's position and can't be moved ? Is it already at idle but acting as if it were not ?"

Please, comment. Thanks.
