I'd prefer it if you didn't, I would. And if you did it, say, in front of people, you'd run a bigger risk of legal ramifications if he went that route and you had actually punched him as opposed to a slap or something lesser.
[So basically what he's saying is that Will does not approve of violent reactions to words, but if it has to happen and she can reel it back to something not too bad and not too public, then he can't really fault her for it. Who could?
If Chilton is going to be a douchebag to Abigail Hobbs, then the least terrible action he can get for it is her slapping him in the face. (What a great mental image.) He can deal with it or put himself there for further punishment. Or he could not be a douchebag to Abigail Hobbs.
He has options, okay, and plenty of them don't result in potential Ripper provocations.]
Yes. When I first got here, I knew more than Chilton or Gideon, and it was just the three of us. Chilton did tell me I'd been here before, but I don't know anything about that. Chilton hadn't been gutted, Gideon hadn't been shot, and I would not have told either of them much because those two are a powder keg. [Also brought to light that Will was totally Chilton's patient and he was not so feverish and out of it that he could not realize how bad an idea dropping that bomb would be.] I actually lied to the both of them about important events. Thought it safer for all of us. I would have kept it up if they hadn't gotten dragged back.
[And he would not have felt too bad about it, either. Finding out Gideon attacked Chilton here was more of a "well no shit" moment than a "IF I HAD ONLY COME CLEAN AND CONFESSED IT ALL THIS COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED!!!!" One can only learn so much and live, after all.
