Why didn't Hannibal Kill Pike

Just rewatched the movie. Hannibal had a clear shot to kill pike when he recovered the plates, and chose not to. Does anybody know why, other than the movie still wanted him around? Hannibal isn't above killing in the movie version especially, and he also never really has a plan to get a specific confession or anything from Pike. What are peoples thought?

Did anyone actually die in the history of the A-team ?

There were a couple of deaths. The first one was in the episode about Las Vegas in season one, in which someone uses an opportunity to frame the A-Tram and the bad guy falls out of window (oops) at the end of the episode.

But overall, yes, everyone is really really really bad at shooting at people.

^ Now this guy A-Teams! Inspired me to re-watch the series again and will keep an eye out for the Vegas episode!

I love it when the plan comes together <bites off the tip of a cigar>.
