For once I thought Shii did go along with Tamaki this time, and not the other way around. It looked like a struggle because Tamaki was indeed struggling with himself, trying to overcome a huge barrier. Shii was asking for permission all along and Tamaki gave him. He even asked him not to ask anymore as they are trying to switch the "blame" to Shii and asking for permission doesn't sit well with that...
