What a thing to say, when Peter is suffering. The hypocrisy of it. And yet, Peter is almost certain that the distress on Juno's face is real, the sentiment behind that statement genuine. Peter struggles for just a moment with his impassive facade. Blink-and-you'll-miss-it quick, frustration and disbelief and a little bit of pain all wrapped up. And then the mask is back in place.
He won't let on. If Juno doesn't already understand how painfully ironic that is...he's a detective, he's smart. He should know.
"You know, I do. He's...kind." Lenient and not interested in actually controlling Peter at all, but he's not going to out and say that in public. "Quite uniquely fascinating too. Never a dull day with him."
