He manages to explain to Sterling the reason why he thinks Bobby is not cut out for this line of work (it would make him a BullyMagnet) and, in a way, Wichard illustrates that thought.

* BadBadActing: Jimmy Wichard does not hide the fact that his assault of Peter is staged, both asking for his cue and taking too long to realize he's been given it. Bobby doesn't pick up on it though, probably because he goes too far to be mistaken for faking it.
