Josef is definitely helping. Mick can maintain his self control when it matters with Beth. If he thought about it for five seconds he was showing his self-control locking himself in the bathroom in the first place not to munch on a mother and child that didn't mean anything to him compared to Beth.
My favorite line is
“I’m sorry...can you repeat that? I could have sworn you just told me you fed fresh.”
That is sooooo Josef.

I can definitely see these two having this exact conversation. You so hit the nail on the head (what a surprise! 
). It's that simple. Clear as can be to Josef. But Mick can't ever see that clearly. He has to muck it up. Grrrrr.
Yeah, you just go ahead and try to stay away from Beth, Mick. Give it a go.

Can't believe I haven't commented on this. Suffice to say, I love it. And yes, this conversation HAS to have happened--probably very much as you've recorded it. Josef is the ultimate in practical. He sees the consequences, and acts accordingly. I think it's why he's so successful in business, and so successful at staying, as he puts it, "among the living."
Really well done!
