It wasn't a bargaining chip. It was a favor. [Errrrrrr.] If I thought he would do it, it would have been a favor.
I can't tell you the whole story. What I can tell you is that I asked Iago to kill someone for me, that he told me it would depend on what Judas said, and that nothing happened. That I asked Judas if Iago had spoken to him about it, saying he had betrayed one or both of us, that Judas told the wardens. I can tell you that weeks before, Iago said he was bored and wanted to do something. I offered him a target. You. Not to kill. To distract, to play with. He said he wanted to do it, that he would enjoy it. Obviously, that didn't happen either.
