[Stubborn or not, that hit definitely surprised Fraser. It's obvious on his face the second he recoils and Ray's sure he sees something else there beyond the shock of a fist hitting. This whole scenario is weird and there's an unease in the air that settles beyond mobsters with guns. Ray can't even begin to work it out, because even as a detective, he's got no hope in hell of cottoning on until he pieces together the clues here and there.
Whatever. Forget about the weirdness for now and focus on the importance of getting out of this mess. He and Fraser have got out of far worse situations, all it needs is communication and a will to kick these mobster's asses. And so he still catches Fraser's gaze when he can, still tries to give off an air of reassurance and confidence like they've both totally got this, even while his attention drifts to other things in the room.
There's handcuffs. Ones that look like they belong in the bedroom rather than on a cop, and Ray can't help but narrow his eyes suspiciously at them, even as the two approach. He watches to find out what's going on, and yet his eyes dart every now and then like he's not sure he should be watching, especially as those fingers drift to the buttons beneath.
So maybe they're going for the humiliating set up photo, but whatever, they won't get that far. Ray can easily kick the asses of a few mobsters.]

You two want a private room?
