Arch was taken aback by her lopsided excuse for a deal, he was thinking of splitting the 10 right down the middle bit it seemed that the greedy barwoman had other things in mind. He cleared his throat once and then once again, struggling to find the words to use. On one hand he could accept and lose a lot of money and on the other he could go in and just kill the man... And make an enemy of Rose. 

Defeated beef he even made a move, Archie extended his hand and waited for her to shake it, she drove a hard bargain and it seemed his years of loyally getting a drink in her establishment were worth nothing. Archie looked her up and down, 'I know your coffin size you backwater-' he bit that thought, he tried hard not to think like a man from the east coast but snooty thoughts occasionally crossed his mind.
