I think Rodney was contrite. We do get to see their body language. If you look at their body language in the scene, you can see Elizabeth is very angry at Rodney. She's yelling and looking right at him. But Rodney isn't looking at Elizabeth, he's looking at the floor. If he was being a smart ass, he would be looking right back at her. But he was ashamed at how the whole situation became the disaster it did and he couldn't look at her.
Unlike John, Rodney has never disobeyed Elizabeth. He has always done what was asked of him. John and Rodney are peers, so Rodney can yell at John. Elizabeth is the boss, and he's always treated her as such.
