He has taken off his ridiculous supervillain hat, for effect:]
My my, is this not an ambitious effort? Certainly, a more elaborate one than the last chamber in which I was imprisoned. To whose hospitality do I owe my gratitude, may I ask? Which one-eyed wolf has clamped these strange jaws around my throat?
[He smiles, but it's unconvincing. His eyes look strangely pained.]
