I thought that Tom wanted to kill them but that Ben set it up prior that they would shoot into the sand. They made it look like he questioned Ben wanting to kill them but after, when we saw them alive, it made more sense.

He said something about not agreeing with Ben after all they'd just killed seven of their people. They made it sound like he thought it was a bad decision to kill them because look at what they could do but in reality he was pissed and wanted to kill them because of what they'd done.

LOL Is that murky enough?
