In the exchange between Delphine and Jericho, there is a palpable tension as they engage in a sharp dialogue. Delphine asserts her domineering personality, suggesting that Jericho would prefer to submit to a man he despises rather than face her. This positions Delphine as someone who is unapologetic about her control and authority.

Jericho, on the other hand, dismisses Delphine's humor, indicating that her attempts at being funny fall flat for him. Despite her insistence that she is hilarious, Jericho's rejection emphasizes the clash in their personalities, highlighting the dynamic of power and resistance between them.
