"Well... We should always try intimidation first... But if it doesn't work then I'll leave the room and you can just tell him I'm [i]preparing.[/i] You can torture them after that but the one thing you probably wouldn't want to hear when being held captive is that one of your captors is [i]preparing.[/i] It's a good intimidation tactic to go along with torture. I'm not happy I know this because I highly disapprove of torture unless they really, really deserve it, but it will make them afraid that I can do something even worse than whatever you're already doing to them."
