Shawn and Sandra are very aware of how overbearing Loria can be, especially Sandra, as she has spent half of her life being Loria's tail.

Sandra might think Adam is handsome and bold, but now in her head, she believes Adam has already dug his grave, as he is going against what Loria wants.
Shawn also has some idea of Loria's overbearingness. He has heard of the horrors that people have suffered in the office because someone decided to go against what Loria wants.

As Loria and Adam lock their gazes, trying to measure each other, Loria turns to look at the waiter.
"Cancel that burger, get him your best steak, medium rare," Loria says.
