Oh crap.
C'mon Riley don't go over to the Dark Side here. I know Tardust is a little weasel, but this is going too far.
I don't know if Tar knows more than he's letting on or not. But I don know that if they beat on him long enough he'll say anything, but that won't make it true (Another meaning behind "Distorted Truths?"). And it's just gonna bring Riley and Burt down closer to Scratch's level.
