Tongue in cheek. "Forced" a walkover

Picturing Yuki coming to the player lounge for breakfast in a Batman costume with Robin (see, Haase doesn't even need a costume!), scaring Ugo and Ben. Yuki to Ugo Humbert, "We can give you a bagel... Hey, Ugo" .... That was it. Those two were already scared, so they said, "okay Batman, we go". Now you know how Batman-Robin can force a walkover
