Sometimes you need someone to point out just how small and pathetic emotionally abusive parents are and can be to their own children even when those children become adults. Mut is probably the only person in Rak's life that has faced Jak and told him how pathetic he is and that he isn't afraid of him. Mut is the only person Rak knows that isn't afraid of Jak because Mut can see right through his bullshit. Mut figured Jak out from the very start and was never afraid of him at all even when Rak was still completely terrified and tried to protect Mut by tearing up the contract. The way Mut tells Rak to take a good look at Jak and see him for the small pathetic man he is. Also the symbolism of Jak lying on the floor looking like a weak pathetic man was good too. Jak finally met someone that didn't give a shit about his manipulative ways and wasn't afraid of him while seeing him for what he is at the same time. Mut even reduces Jak to be being a slimy old fraud that can do nothing to him or to Rak and Mut isn't wrong. The way Mut stands over Jak while he tells Rak all of this speaks volumes.
The way Mut tells Rak to look at his father lying on the ground and asks Rak what does he see. Mut points out that Jak can't do anything to him, to Rak or to his family because Jak is a slimy old fraud. Mut tells Rak to take a good look and points out that Jak wouldn't dare kill anyone. Jak couldn't even fight back when Mut beat the shit out of him never mind kill anyone.
The way Mut reassures Rak that he's telling the truth in that no one is going to die and that it wasn't Rak's fault about the doctor who died in an accident. The desperate look on Rak's face when he asks for that reassurance from Mut by asking 'do you mean it' and he needed that reassurance all along. Mut reassures Rak again by telling him to look at Jak who is still lying on the floor like a pathetic coward whose actions have finally been exposed.
Rak admitting he's been afraid of his father for his whole life is the whole reason why his father had so much power over him for decades. Rak has been manipulated since he was a child and as an adult feels powerless because he never had anyone to help him and fight for him the way Mut did. Rak's father had had complete control to manipulate and abuse Rak for so many years with no one to stand up for Rak. Rak was all alone but now he has Mut in his corner to fight for him. Finally Rak can see that Jak isn't the big unbeatable monster he had to deal with as a child and as an adult. Even though Rak is scared he now has the confidence to stand up to his father with the help of Mut who has been fiercely at his side since they came back to Bangkok.
To Rak, Jak has always been a big monster who can ruin his life and also destroy Mut. Mut did what Rak never had the strength to do which was face up to Jak. Mut beat the shit out of Jak before asking him if he's ready to face him now that the contract had been ripped up. You just know Mut was only holding back because it was one of the terms Rak had set out.
Mut calling Jak a slimy fraud reduces him to exactly that so he's no longer the huge monster that occupies Rak's mind. Jak becomes human and is just a powerless piece of shit that can't do anything. He no longer has any power over Rak now that Rak can see the monster from his childhood is just another adult and an emotionally abusive one at that. Rak telling his father to leave him, his family and Mut alone is just the start of Rak getting back some power that he never had before in his life. Mut is a big help in helping Rak take back some of that power and control.
