Very clever, Mr. Pops, tricking everyone into thinking that you were going to have Ringo feed Tracy and Agent Ennen to a tiger when in fact you were planning to feed them to a panther all along. (Bravo, my friend, bravo. Wait, you're not my friend...) I have to say, that panther looks a lot more threatening than the tiger ever did, because while the tiger seems resigned to its fate behind bars (or maybe it's just patiently waiting to be rescued by five fantastic battle-armored samurai), the panther is a boiling cauldron of rage, and will lash out at anyone and anything that gets too close to it. I'm still not sure that this is going to work to Mr. Pops' advantage as a means of revenge since Ringo could still talk to the cops (and they might even believe him), but hey, I'm just going to go with it for now. The clown's got a plan and who am I to interfere?
Uh oh. I think Mr. Pops is just about to make another mistake. Not only is he planning to keep Ringo alive (thereby not really silencing him or getting rid of the information he possesses), but he's also going to commit one of the cardinal sins of villainy: leaving right before your nemesis is about to meet his or her fate. You see, Mr. Pops, when you've trapped your enemy, don't assume that whatever death you've decided for them will still be carried out if you leave the room. You're just giving your opponent the opportunity they need for some quick thinking and ingenuity that they just wouldn't have if you stayed around to witness their end (no matter how gory it might be) with a gun pointed at their head to deter them from any last-second heroics. Sure, right now Tracy and Agent Ennen look pretty freaked out, but this isn't Tracy's first rodeo and he's been in far tighter spots before. I have a feeling that he's going to do something (and you know it's going to be good) and you're going to have that smile wiped off of your face. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. We'll just have to wait and see what Tracy does once he gets over his initial shock at the big cat switcheroo (and is it just me, or do you now expect Agent Ennen to say, "Do something else," after he gulped in response to her first request?).
