Stan looks up at Ford just then, his look all sharp and kind of disgusted, because Ford obviously don't realize when it's time to drop the metaphor thing like a hot potato. "Now you really do sound like you're buildin' a condo. I don't care about projects, Ford, without you there is no 'project'. That's why I'm here, that's why I skipped town with no money an' drove halfway across the country for you. I thought I'd never get the taste of gas outta' my mouth. If it's this one guy that's holdin' you back, okay, we'll deal with him. We'll put our heads together, kick his ass, and then... Then we can come back to this."
He doesn't like the idea of coming back to this. When someone's just said yes, when they're happy, that's when you seal the deal, the last thing you do is get 'em all convinced and then fuck off and give them time to think. He doesn't like the idea of that, leaving Ford all that time to think about it, only coming back to this once Ford don't need him anymore.
So he don't think about it.
"We'll take your guy out and then we'll talk, huh? We'll come back to it and just, just see what you think."
Maybe it'll take a while. Stan finds himself hoping it'll take a while, beating that guy, and hopefully doin' it until whoever - whatever, right - did this to his brother is black and blue. The longer it takes, the longer Stan can pretend to forget that you never ask to get paid only after the deed is done. Giving Ford what he needs and then going back and asking him for something? For this? Well, Stan can keep from thinkin' about that for just as long as he needs to.
