The boy who told the emperor that he was stark bollock naked was showing absolute respect to the emperor.

It's also fun to see how irritated some people get when they know they don't deserve any courtesy or respect after poor behavior.

P.S. I think you are missing a "not" in your quote, maybe where the first "but" is placed.
