"Are you correcting what I'm saying?" The man was displeased. "I don't like others correcting me, because I'm always right." Sebastian was about to retort when Theodore turned and said, "Stop it. Rose is still in his hands. Can we please stay calm?" "You..." Sebastian was unwilling; upon reflection, if he argued with Theodore here, it would only validate Theodore's point.

"Unlock the tablet."

"Damn it! What have you done to her?" Sebastian shouted.

"What can I do? Just what you see," the man replied slowly and unhurriedly, in stark contrast to Sebastian's fury.

Sebastian's eyes turned red. He clenched his fists, and took a deep breath. "Didn't you say you wanted to play a game? Tell me what game you want to play, and I'll play it with you. Just let Rose go."
