All right. Well. That's not strictly fair, is it? He's being an insufferable dick while Jay's trying to communicate for once, flipping their roles around pretty thoroughly in the process, meaning that Tim no longer can be unrepentant in his dickholery and still have it be justified.

"Okay," says Tim, slowly, no longer white-knuckling his fork but making a concentrated effort to speak slowly and breathe slowly and not look at Jay directly. "So. How do you plan to do that?"
