IMO that was a bit of a nervous, emotional breakdown after dealing with his horrible wife, and after his offer to take the fall was rejected because he wasn’t a meaningful sacrifice.

So that reads less to me like whoa, he had the balls to take Logan’s food- an alpha move if ever there was one- and more like a psychological break where he’s not even considering the consequences.

Far as I can tell, each time Tom flexes on someone who isn’t beneath him in the hierarchy, he does so in a way that underscores his actual weakness.

Even his power move at the end of S3 puts that in grand display IMO
