[ It's a bit of a shock to the system, all things considered, but Faraday hasn't entirely lost his wits. He sees the way Billy's eyes slide past him, and even before the word of warning, Faraday's already spinning around to meet this new threat.
It's a damn good thing Billy doesn't wait for Faraday to react on his own – if he had, Faraday's reasonably sure his head would've been cracked open. The knife buries itself in the man's arm, and when he drops the table leg to yank the fork out, Faraday uses that moment of vulnerability to wallop the man in the side of the head with his bottle.
Turnabout is fair play, after all.
After that, Faraday reels back a fist, punching another man hoping to capitalize on the distraction. And when a third man charges at him, Faraday moves to one side, letting him rush right past. ]
