[I may have to kill you was typically the first thought that would cross her mind at Armstrong's thinly veiled attempt to behave like she actually gave a crap wanted to help Edward out. Few things disgusted her more, but she was a little bit too caught up in thinking of a way to get them out of this situation. She knew Edward wouldn't be able to lie. He had also made it abundantly clear that he was unable to at least play along with whatever story she could come up with.
Also, yes. It was that bad, Armstrong, because even with Hawkeye's ability to both tell a good lie and keep a straight face, she can't manage to keep the color from draining from her face. It was taking every ounce of self control to not allow any other sign of panic show in her expression.
Somehow, she has a feeling that when Armstrong finds out what really happened, she is probably going to wish she had never known.
And yes, she is so dumbfounded by Armstrong's comment that she can't trust herself to even open her mouth.]
That comment is below the belt about 50-million different ways, just fyi
