Excerpt from The Office:
Dwight: What makes you feel qualified to judge a place after a mere interview? Robert stares at Dwight What are you doing..? Dwight sits up abruptly Stop trying to figure me out.
Robert: I just did.
Dwight: You can’t.
Robert: It’s done.
Dwight: No, it’s not.
Robert: I know you now, your nature. I'm done. Not worth continuing. at the same time, Dwight says: You don't know me! Anything about me! Get out of my head!
