Why does Deckard first ask Joe if he has a piece of cheese?
Bladerunner 2049, when Deckard first meets Joe / KD6.3-7 the very first thing he says to him is "Mightn't happen to have a piece of cheese about you, now, would you boy"?
Any specific reason why he would ask this - assuming he'd put a lot of thought into it?
The inflection in his voice drop down on "would you boy" suggesting it's a rhetorical question.
Is it perhaps because he suspects Joe is a replicant, and the question is in some ways a conscious or even semi-sub conscious ploy i.e. a hangover of his days as a Bladerunner? Especially the use of "boy" to provoke an emotional response.
Further, he seems somewhat satisfied or surprised at Joe's response "He reads(!)".
