Pullo, trying so hard to keep Vorenus alive, and blurting out the truth about Evander, which is exactly what Pullo would do.
And he was right to never tell Vorenus before this, because this is exactly what Vorenus would have done before too. But what kind of hurt was that Vorenus said Pullo was never a friend to him - I think that just cut Pullo to the quick. And then Pullo swore on his mother's bones (and we know how much THAT meant to him) that he'd never touched Niobe and Vorenus still didn't believe him - I totally bought at that point that Pullo was just all "enough, believe what you want to, asshole!" (He did still defend Niobe, which was sweet.)
I thought Vorenus was actually being a huge jerk to Pullo even before the whole disclosure about Evander - he was so big on being all "your opinions don't count" and "never question me" when Pullo actually did have the peacable solution (or they should have tried for it.)
