Skyfall question....

A Skyfall question.

One of my favourite scenes is the word-association test with its lovely couplets:

"Day" - "Wasted."
"Agent" - "Provocateur."
"Woman" - "Provocatrix."
"Heart" - "Target." - and so on.

But when the examiner comes to "Skyfall", and repeats it, Bone replies, "Done," and walks out. Why? He later goes to Skyfall on his own accord, and though he says he never liked the place, it doesn't seem to have him particulary traumatized. Is it because he resents MI6 prying into his inner psyche and his thoughts on his childhood? Just too personal? Or is there another meaning to it I haven't seen?

I loved it as foreshadowing when I first saw it: a teaser for the viewer - "What's that, and why doesn't Bond want to talk about it?" Now I know what it is, but I'm still wondering why the word makes Bond walk out.
