There is something old-school-noir-lawyer about responding to someone pulling a gun on you by pouring them a scotch and telling them to sit down, let's talk.

Yep. That's what they call sang-froid, right there.

I was kinda hoping you'd smash the bottle on your desk and lunge at him across the desk wielding the broken neck.

In the end it's all just booze. If it's yours, do what you want with it. Mix it, drink it with ice, lunge across the table with it...

Yeah, I was gonna say. If you're doing the Sam Spade Only Like, A Lawyer thing, get out the glasses FIRST, then the booze. But since it's a movie, he won't shoot unless the script says so anyway.
