[ He spends another moment watching her, taking in that sadness mixing with her rage. He's never seen her like this, but that's not a surprise, considering how closely she's guarded she's kept her past.
Faraday is not a righteous man, but he has a sense of right and wrong – and on his off-time, he tends to ignore that boundary. Tends to give in to his vices, indulge in a touch of selfishness. So in that regard, at least, he understands wanting to exact revenge.
But that's not Emma's style. He wonders how she would feel, tipping over that edge, giving Bogue the type of thing he might deserve, but going off-script to do it. He's not sure if she'd like that, after the fact.
So at length, he shifts the crutches again to give his hands something to do. (He really wishes he had a cigarette to sooth his agitation.) ]
Oughta do this right. By the book.
[ Not Faraday's mode of operation, of course, but hers. He says it solemnly, without his usual touch of levity. ]
