Yeah..shouting trust? bullshit! at someone that's calling you a traitor isn't exactly your smartest move MC. (Almost positive Death will blame him for that death, despite the hammer swing already being in view during that frame)
(I assume that Lady Death is just going to put him in his original life at the end, only he'll recover and succeed at life for some reason, rather than, you know, be a broken man due to dying so many times in relatively short succession.)
