Elijah's face changed colors the moment he laid eyes on those photos.

"Mr. Ulbricht, we're partners," Isaac's patience had evaporated. "I've told you before, we're equals, not in a hierarchy."

Elijah had crossed a line by following him and exposing those photos to the Lynette family, breaking the principle of their partnership. Feeling cornered, Elijah admitted guilt. "I handled this poorly. It won't happen again."
