Tony is fairly certain every bit of that expression is about as honest as his own threat displays. Actually, probably even less. "Do I? Pretty sure wording things like 'if they really cared but they don't so they left us all out to dry with their mess' counts as manipulation, pal. And pretty low and dirty, too. You guys ever think of trying 'please'? Works wonders, you'd be amazed."
