There's a threat there, in those two rumbled words as Albert scoots the kid the last few feet into the hall and all but plants him before the elevator. The spoiled little ingrate may try to come back but Albert will bet dollars to donuts it will be when the German cyborg isn't around. He's put fear in the boy, stubborn or not.

Albert gives an unsettling grin that shows his canines. "See what happens."

Then he shuts the door right in Julian's face.
