In a show just chock full of devastating observational details and grace notes, I think the one that hit me the hardest was the way Connell argues when faced with the utterly justified ire of Marianne and his mother. He has no idea how to react, nor how to process their reactions in the moment, and so he retreats to this eminently sensible tone. Even when what he's actually saying is complete nonsense, he still clings to that mask of maturity, of being the reasonable one. It's just perfectly written, and incredibly played by Paul Mescal.
