i actually think the reason they didnt have max and silver interact too much is it wouldve broken the ethos of silver's character which is that he can't confront himself. the mask slips too much around her like even before the cliff scene even before it's explicitly said that he's constitutionally incapable of introspection you can See when he's around her his persona looks so stupid and awkward and slips around so much that you can see there's literally nothing underneath it
when he tries to threaten her into joining the resistance and she's just like no i dont want to. silver's whole Thing just does not work on her and he does not get why
RIGHT. like silver technically wins that confrontation bc his guys kill all her guys but there is still the distinct feeling that she had something over him bc he really does look like such a clumsy jackass when he tries to manipulate or threaten her EVEN WHEN he legitimately has the upper hand
GOD! "i don't care" "you will" and he DOES!!!!
