It's not a compliment in any sense..it's a classic stall tactic when oine is unsure of the response they want to give...it's got nothing to do with being dishonest either...
What it is, is annoying. Makes it sound like there's an echo in the room...
About time you tell us how you felt Robert...
Kai wasted your time, Dan's time and, most importantly, the listener's time.
For the gentlemen that keeps assuming that Kai's approach to repeating the question had anything to do with respect and acknowledgement of proper response, I think you might be mistaken.
"Therapeutic communication" is an approach that is commonly seen when dealing with special groups of people (i.e foreigners, criminals, psych patients etc..). In other words, when dealing with a psych patient that is considering suicide, as medical staff, you would not only ask them about their suicidal ideation, but when they give you an answer or even a question, not only do you repeat their answer/question but you give the person time to acknowledge that your response goes in line with their own postulation.
Sadly, Kai isn't a foreigner, a criminal or even that of a psych patient (regardless of his grapefruit fucking ways). So for Kai to dodge every damn question and waste everyone's time was completely uncalled for.
Either he is a complete moron or was purposely trying to waste time.
