The Outsider Episode 2
Early in The Outsider episode 2 “Roanoke,” there's a meeting between Frank and Terry at the jail that is one of the most crackling, sharp exchanges in any television show in recent memory. It has the snap of real conversation, or the snap of a 1930's screwball comedy without the wordplay. Frank and Terry are sharp, batting a conversational ball around, cutting each other off, finishing each other's thoughts. It’s pure brilliance.
The thing that makes it work, aside from the intelligence of Richard Price's script is the way both actors approach the scene. Terry isn't defensive, he's open and honest and confused; he wants to help but he also can't give the cops rope enough to hang him.
