The Hit- two theories

There are two theories as to why Terrence Stamps changed his stoic tune so easily when confronted with his execution. Either
1. He wasn’t happy that his execution was done the “wrong way” as he hadn’t met the hitmen’s boss before dying
Or what is more likely
2. He thought when he met the boss he would be able to talk himself out of the hit or else he would get leverage in some way and go free
This ending was interesting because Braddock was the one who died more tranquilly despite being of the two, the one more worried with death throughout the film. For all his bluster, Terrence Stamps character died like a weakling. That is interesting that the tables turned at the last second so they each took on each other’s persona showing that they are parallel versions of the same personality I guess. All people embody both sides of the aisle in regards to death.
