He has seniority over Clover and Undyne, so unfortunately for him, this also means he gets the most beatings. As they start to untangle from the hug, Break gets elbowed, and his immediate response is just to sock Gilbert in the stomach right back... He may not have his cane, but he'll still beat Gilbert up.

Even though he continues coughing through it, Break just continues to be a grumpy old man. ]
