“Well that’s an interesting predicament…”
“How did you get yourself there?”
“Care to share how you wound up in this situation?”
“I don’t want to talk about how or why I’m here, just help.”
“You have a thoughtful look on your face.”
“You’re looking a little spacey.”
“I could elaborate, but I won’t.”
“Can you explain this to me one more time?”
“I have questions, and I doubt you have answers to them.”
“I don’t think any amount of explanation is going to save whatever headache this is giving me.”
“I don’t need to explain anything.”
“I could tell you what happened, but you will not believe me.”
“I would like to claim plausible deniability.”
“Nothing you say is going to make this any better.”
“I put a lot of thought into this.”
“I didn’t think this through.”
“I thought about this a lot and it still came out like this.”
“Sometimes I just need a quiet place to think.”
“You really thought this all out?”
“It’s difficult to have a spare moment to myself these days.”
“You look suspicious.”
“I have no idea what you’re referring to.”
“Do you just stare while you think?”
“You have a thoughtful look about you, something up?”
“Hmm… oh what? Sorry, it’s nothing. Don’t worry.”
