I know that the captain tells the flight attendants either 'prepare for takeoff' or 'seats for takeoff' when the plane nears the runway for takeoff. They might be telling the crew to be prepared for departure.

flight crews are religious, a cross check is confirming that rosaries are properly stowed.
