Usually, this is when he backs down.

Say anything short enough, sharp enough, and he'll listen. Say it like you'd tell a kid starting to get tall; to get ideas for what you can and can't make him do. Say: You fucking idiot, get back to work.

And usually, he listens.

Strange might still shake a winner. Day in, day out, and you're gonna lose 'em. The watch ticks. Lazar stares back, inert. Doesn't move, doesn't shift toward some outward sign of rebellion. Say it short and sharp. If this is what they're doing,

He'll do the work.
