I was the one who put that example there, but I wasn't understanding it as mean-spirited, but as his way of showing her that he had forgiven her so completely that he was even willing to joke about the situation. (Although it was still sort of trollish to toy with her emotions like that, he didn't really mean any harm by it).

Although plenty of other people seem to think that he really was still mad, and only forgave her after hearing her apology (and came up with the carrot pen prank on the spur of the moment, halfway through the apology), I've always had trouble believing that interpretation. His change in demeanor was so incredibly abrupt, that I had trouble interpreting his bitter, angry behaviour at the beginning of the scene as anything more than an act. He is, after all, [[MasterActor very good at that]].

I feel like if he was actually forgiving her right there on the spot, his change in attitude wouldn't have been so instantaneous, but more gradual, and he probably wouldn't have been quick-witted enough to instantly come up with the carrot pen prank, but probably would have been forced to be more earnest in conversing with her.

This is all just interpretation though, so I guess if you really want to you can remove the example on the basis that it's reliant on a specific interpretation of an ambiguous situation.

The other reason I think he\'d already forgiven her is that I tend to think of Nick\'s behavior after the press conference as being an overreaction fueled by his childhood trauma, given that all she really did was repeat a theory she heard from a badger. While it\'s understandable he would react that way given his history, I think three months is plenty of time to cool down and realize she really didn\'t mean anything by it (Even though Judy, for her part, did feel terribly guilty about it due to hurting Nick\'s feelings and the effect that it had on the city).
