    Always hold your cards to your chest, give someone else a goal that’s in reach, then reveal that they, in fact, aren’t even close to beating you.

      Exactly right. Funny thing is he’s had Pepper X waiting for just such an event, but decided to release it anyway because nobody could beat the reaper. But they were getting close, so time to pull ahead again.
