So I saw in an interview Luca Marinello said he sometimes doesn't understand British accents when talking to British people and Nicky was very quiet when they first meet Merrick.
So Merrick is being all smarmy and British and condescending and he calls Nicky a mouse. Nicky looked super confused and Joe says "He thinks you're a mouse, Nicky"
To that, Merrick moves to grab Nicky's face, talking about how between Nicky and Joe, Nicky is much more meek in comparison to Joe
When Merrick grabs Nicky's face during his whole mouse speech, he makes the mistake the mistake of shoving his fingers in Nicky's mouth so Nicky bites him- while Nicky doesn't fully understand the British accent, he understands a man trying to weild power where he shouldn't
Joe/Nicky (Merrick/Nicky) + Nicky Bites Merrick
