Shaw look like he was puttin his hands all in Baroni's face right before that. Plus, Baroni's andrenelin was probably a pumping. Just my take on it. I agree, it did look a little crude towards his boss man. Kinda biting the hand the feeds him, even though Gary doesn't seem the type to share food to begin with lol.
Fighters are more afraid of Dana than Gary it seems lol.
Also that gif seems frozen/slow. It could be my pc?
