He says "You have go to be kidding me" and berates Rollins for walking out on him last week when he stuck his hand out as a sign of friendship.

He says maybe too much has happened between them to ever mend fences and starts to walk away. Ambrose stops him and finally offers his fist. This time it's Rollins who stares at it for a long time.
