[Bertholdt does finally meet her eyes. He looks...tired, defeated, broken down by circumstance.]

[He glances down at his palms until they make fists.]

[Then, with a resigned sigh, he closes his eyes, releases the tension in his hands, looks back at Aubrey.]
Being eaten over and over again. It would be a fitting punishment.
