Mercury was probably acting when he got hit with Yang's bullet. I thought he was the cool collected guy but when she broke his leg he was all crying and stuff. I mean yeah his leg was broken but he was so OA.

Either that or when he said "I can't believe she would do this to me" or something like that, he was referring to Cinder and he took one for the team because Cinder never reveals the full plan.

Oh he intentionally over sold the injury. Think about it, he intentionally sends a flying kick her way, but gets hit. Then all of the sudden he's in pain and the camera says Yang's the villain. The kick attack is not an illusion because there would be no need for him to say "There won't be a next time Blondie." No point making an illisom that tips off Yang.
