English term or phrase: chew the cud
Filme de ação:

Depois de dar uma de justiceiro, extrapolando o serviço para o qual foi designado, o assassino profissional Ray tem uma conversa seu chefe. Na saída, encontra com seu amigo e este lhe pergunta:


Doug: Old man chew the cud outta you or what?

Ray: He just wanted to know what happened from my point of view.


No glossário, vi que "chew the cud" significa "jogar conversa fora", mas não me parece encaixar no contexto, por isso gostaria de saber se existe outra possibilidade.

Desde já, muito obrigado.
