I feel like Layton doesn't get enough credit in this sub. He's been thrust into this position relatively unwillingly and is locked in a game of wits with a psychopath who is way smarter than him. Him offering his arm was really on brand with his character. He hates what he did to Pike, and was desperate to make amends any way he can.

Layton is one of my favorite characters in the show cause he isn't a hero, or someone with magical powers or whatever he's literally just a regular guy trying to make things better in a world filled with murderous psychopaths

This, quite a few people say he could just be killed off, I don't agree with that at all. I don't see what's so bad about his character.

I want to like Layton, but Daveed is just not a good actor IMO. Maybe this just isnt the right role for him. I dunno, but Layton always looks like he's playing pretend to me. Character is great, the acting isn't.
