You're completely misinterpreting it brother. His name is Thalee Govshadoush.
In the original cut, CIA was clearly trying to communicate with Bane in his native tongue.
>Efipul thathov wilud aye?
Bane wasn't having it. CIA's desperate attempts to show everyone, including himself, that he's in charge here wasn't fooling Bane so he gave a simple response, commenting on what would happen if CIA kept up this charade.
>If would be extremely painful.
CIA's final attempt to reach Bane in the interrogation is a desperate gamble. He knows that Bane is at least partially of East Asian descent from studying his case file in Washington. CIA's master's thesis was originally about social structures in East Asia, but he changed it at the last minute to American Aviation. Nevertheless, he did study many volumes of literature about how East Asians interact with each other. As many of you know the abacus, an early form of the calculator, was invented in in Asia, where math and sciences are highly respected fields of study. So much so in fact, that the term abacus has become a complement for someone, even though the device itself has fallen out of fashion. To complement someone's intelligence, creativeness of just general personality you may call them an abacus, or if their skills are especially impressive, an abaci (which is plural) meaning that they are worth at least two ancient Asian calculation tools. CIA knew this well and used this on Bane in an attempt to soften him up.
>You're abaci.
>For you.
Bane gives the customary Asian response to said complement, that being "For you." His heart and mind are open to CIA now, knowing he is a worldly and tolerant man, not just some pencil pushing bureaucrat. Bane is now an abacus for him (so to speak) because he is open to answering CIA's questions honestly and openly.
Bravo Nolan must have spent weeks researching for these few lines of dialogue.
