And Demetrius, the more you beat me I will fawn on you, use me but as your spaniel, spunm me, strike me, neglect me, lose me, only give me leave, unworthy as I am to follow thee. Is this enough? If you want more I could get you more just ask!

The figure of speech is personification.
Rusty James runs into his old friend Steve, whom he hasn't seen in all that time. They are on the beach, far from the original action.

Steve invites Rusty James to dinner, an invitation he has no intention of accepting. Steve is too much of a reminder of some bad times.
