Tony had a feeling he was asking for it. The expression on Xie's face is just enough warning and he jerks back, out of the way.
Still, he realises that the injury saved him, and has the good sense to neither carry on nor to step forward and see to him. He just stands patiently, unrepentant.
But Kevin and Lisa enter just as Xie is bracing himself at the table, and Kevin's first reaction is to stride far enough into the room to get between them, closest to Xie, facing the DS.
