That's lesson two, and he gives her a small, genuine smile for knowing it without him having to teach her. Now comes lesson three--never let your guard down. And, that in mind, he tilts his head to one side, eyes still fixed on her, though his focus is elsewhere, on the pipe where it fell when he did.
Without so much as a gesture, he pushes it across the floor with vicious thoughts, fast and hard enough to trip her up, hopefully. He could do a lot worse, he knows, but again he's managed to keep in mind that this is a lesson, rather than anything else.
