Anywhere else he would have laughed the comment about the towel off as something quirky to say in an awkward social situation, but given the state of the house and the flowers, he's partially inclined to believe that maybe the towel is actually happy to meet him.
"Tea would be lovely," he's usually more of a coffee person, but he's not going to turn down an offer of hospitality, and he does like tea. "Particularly if I'm going to be answering questions. But the truth is, I'm not really sure what's going on either." He follows Bruno towards the kitchen (he will gently prod him to lead that way if necessary, he's already starting to see the man is easily distracted) and adds as they go,
"I'm not completely ignorant of what happened, but I definitely don't know why. I was just out for a walk," he always feels weird sussing out the power situation in a place as someone who has power, but he doesn't have any need or desire to hide it, either, even if announcing it outright always feels crass to him, "Uh... are you the one responsible for the flowers?" he asks, instead, because that seems like a good way to open the door to this particular conversation.
