He heard a guy ask who it was at the door and so answered the best he could, hoping he wasn't making a mistake with the possibility of getting a shotgun in his face for his efforts.
 
"My name is Philip Callahan... I'm um," he paused, wondering if he should just walk away now and maybe wait in the car to see if it really had been Kristen. "I thought I saw a friend of mine."
 
What if she was under cover and using an assumed name?
 
Oh great, Callahan, blow her cover if she was.
 
So he left the name of the friend unnamed and waited to see if the guy on the other side of the door was going to open up - or maybe, if Kristen was in there, for her to hear his voice.
