Addam made to shake hands with Jin, the morning after their grim and unfortunately unfriendly first encounter. What better show could he prove of his goodwill, besides his plans and promises to help him and Lora? He knew Jin was under no obligation to believe him any farther than he could throw him (though, even with those wiry arms and Addam's own portly-side-of-lanky disposition, that was likely pretty far), so all he could offer was his best farmer's-diplomatic courtesy.
