"Charlie, he can figure it out on his own. I'm pretty sure that your threats are crystal clear. Here's the problem: what do we threaten him with? We can threaten him with the fact that we'll reveal his secret, too, but it isn't a secret, so what does he care? We can threaten him with physical harm, but in a tiny place like this one, that could backfire on us real quick. Sure, it could work for awhile, until he realizes that if we actually hurt him, the whole town's gonna turn against us."

He's observed the population of the town, and found that they generally like Ned. It would be unwise, at best, to start a conflict with him, especially a physical one.

"Still..." He's musing on something, although he's not sure how to phrase it yet. Give him a second, Charlie, his brain's working.
