Hollywood Mersh’s Stroke Stunt: Real or Donation Bait?

There was an odd moment in a recent Nightwave, when Mersh was completely silent for a moment, then muttered the phrase "I don't know if I want to do this anymore". At first I thought this could be another stroke, but upon a closer look, I noticed something about his eyes. It's almost like he was looking for a reaction from the chat or if any new donations came in. What do you think? Was this a real stroke, or just donation bait?
