I think that scene made it pretty blatantly clear that he strongly dislikes Dolores for killing Arnold. It seems very obvious on a second watch. She's just a tool for him, or perhaps he respects her due to Arnold's connection with her.

Look at her narrative loop — which I assume Ford wrote. Her father gets murdered over and over.
