Rewatching the scene right now and something has always stood out to me that I don’t see mentioned a whole lot. Right before Chuck has his full melt down, his attorney tries one last ditch effort to get the whole mental illness aspect thrown out as a non-issue. The poor guy then tries to help the situation by making a comparison between Chuck and a schizophrenic person. It is at this moment, when the person hired to HELP Chuck in this environment starts comparing him to a schizophrenic person as a method of argument that Chuck really loses it. I’d love to see the script and whether or not Michael McKean’s brief, insulted shout of “schizo-?” was improvised or not. I doubt it was, but it’s such a wonderful little moment that that was the final final tipping point for him and it’s delivered beautifully by McKean.
Compare me to the insane as a way of helping me? Let’s shut that down right now. I am not crazy.
