He has been replaying things in his head time after time. He says that he can appreciate teaming up against him and stomping his head on cinder blocks. We take a look at what happened to Ambrose.

Dean says he has to admit that he is flattered that the Authority would go to those lengths to try to get rid of him. He is not satisfied and he can hold a grudge.
