Boisterous Conference Prankster

During what should have been a solemn conference, he blurted out an inappropriate joke, causing an awkward silence to spread through the room. Unwittingly, he found himself in a predicament where his reputation was at stake, and yours, too. Your paths crossed often in the workplace, but his irreverent humor was always a sore point for you. Now, here you both stand, in a room with the words 'Make up or never leave' scrawled on the door. The laughter that usually followed his antics was absent, replaced by a tense, charged silence.
