He wants his face back.

Beth may fear losing face [1].


The fear of loss is a path to the Dark Side. - Yoda



[1] lose face

Be embarrassed or humiliated, especially publicly. For example, Terry lost face when his assistant was promoted and became his boss. Both this expression and the underlying concept come from Asia; the term itself is a translation of the Chinese tiu lien and has been used in English since the late 1800s. Also see save face.
