"Take a break...time off for good behavior to emerge"
BOB: (staring into the distance, sheepishly says) ....um, okay...
R&R: That's the ticket! By taking this brief break, Bob has the chance to flush some of that adrenaline through his system so it will stop irritating his nerve endings. And you've bought yourself a moment to compose yourself so that you can talk to Bob in a calm, caring and considerate manner about what pulled his pin. Congratulations! You've saved Bob from making a complete fool of himself, and in return you've gained his undying gratitude (unless you pull his pin in the future!)
