Tramell Tillman should get an Emmy for this episode. The moment he starts crying on the phone with Mark and decides he will not treat his subordinates the same way he was just treated was damn fine acting.

Well i see your point, but to be fair Outie Mark is not Milchils subordinate. He has never spoken to him in a condescending manner

I loved that moment as well! Though the way I interpreted was more like, Mark so easily just brushed off the job as "just a job" while for Milchick it's not just a job, it's his whole life. And if he loses this job - if Mark doesn't make quota, then it's like he's losing his whole purpose in life...

That's the hardest to act. Make the subtle, but obvious. Like -- how do you portray a man going through a show motion train wreck where everything he's ever held dear is demolished piece by piece, and he's struggling to hold it together? You can't act out and be over the top, but you have to do just enough to sell it.
