*tries this in real life* Cop: "That's from Fargo haha. Great scene. You're under arrest tho"

38 years on this Earth, and this is one of the most badass scenes I've ever seen.

When I think of Fargo, I think of this scene. Probably one of the most badass, intimidating, malevolent showmanship I've seen come out of Billy Bob Thornton.

The sound of all the factories in the background truly make this scene. It makes you feel alone, like they are the only ones in the world

Imma try this next time I get pulled over

So quiet, no threats just a quiet warning to not go down that road. Billy Bob owned this first season.

I love the first shot of the gas fumes coming from the car as the officer gets out of his vehicle. Foreshadowing of a calm, breathing dragon waiting to strike in the cold of night. This scene was shot with perfection, it makes you feel cold.

This scene makes me think that Lorne Malvo is not just some hitman, he is pure evil not from this world.

Just got out of prison today, was in because i tried this after the first episode aired

This was for me the scene that made the show. So utterly brilliantly conceived. Huge respect for the actors for playing this one to perfection.

"These are not the droids you're looking for."

60% of the time, it works every time.

Speech: 100

"Some roads you shouldn't go down. Because maps used to say there'd be dragons here. Now they don't. But that don't mean the dragons aren't there. "

It's the coincidence of his daughter radioing in and reminding Gus what he stands to lose if this traffic stop goes wrong that really allows Malvo's intimidation technique to succeed. I think he would have scoffed in Malvo's face and never thought twice about proceeding by the book and arresting him if it wasn't for the fact his daughter radioed in AT THE EXACT TIME that Malvo finished delivering that ominous line about dragons.

Pants officially shat.

I finally decided to start Fargo and let me tell you, that was the best pilot episode of anything ever.

Absolutely nobody could have played that scene better than Billy Bob Thornton. I love him!

I showed this to my uncle Jeremy who worked highway patrol and eventually drug task force. He told me a story about a man he pulled over for speeding, he found out the guy was a mid level drug dealer with connection to the Arms Trade. He and the man talked for 5 minutes and he told me he really wanted to let the man go. Because the guy casually brought up my uncles wife and asked if she still made good Ziti. (How the fuck would he know that?) My uncle got mad and told him to step out and the guys exact words were "yes sir" and fired a revolver he had hidden through his jacket that lodged in my uncles belt and the second hit his partner Chris in the shoulder and armpit. The guy drove off and no one ever caught him. My uncle said he was shot outside a bar and dropped in the LOTO (Lake of The Ozarks) said he never wanted to pick a badge up again. Can't blame him honestly. He dealt with some of the worst people around.

I love the later seasons of Fargo, but season 1 was perfect television

*”sir… I was just gonna tell you your trunk isn’t fully close”*

the sister version of " What's the most you've lost in a coin toss"

I'd shit my pantaloons if I were the officer.

There is something so chilling the way he says "do you understand me?" Yup you have yourself a goodnight sir.

The officer was sure of his training until Billy's character mentioned his daughter. It's that right there that caused the hesitation, which turned into doubt about going down this road. He weighed it in his mind..."it's not worth it, I have a daughter at home."

One of the best scenes ever.

Billy Bob is maestro, the intensity of the character, you actually can see how deep he's in the Malvo persona, he gave it another life, scary, I think that even the cohen brothers shit themselves. That's how you represent a fucking sociopath. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Don't watch a trailer to this season. Just watch this clip. That's all I needed to get excited enough to watch this show. Plus this scene doesn't spoil anything it just depicts the tone of the show.

Chilling scene. There be dragons…

This is one of the best scenes in television history. So powerful and masking so much tension.

One of the most intense scene in TV/movies ever

He isnt Just some badass Guy the cop can feel how He would genunly be willing to die that night

There are things in this world you don’t wanna know about and this scene underscores that.

God I love billy bob, he’s such a damn good actor

I really underestimated this show. I’m still only on season 1, but it is absolutely stunning. And what a cast!!

Of course this scene is incredible, however I just realised that driving like shit is rather out of character for Malvo who is otherwise emotion-free and always in control.

channel 4 used this scene in their trailer for fargo.... Based on this alone I knew I'd love it....

Still one of the best scenes in television, so chilling

Great intensity

Every scene with Lorne Malvo is perfection.

Terrifying Presence perk really payin off here

The best scene in Fargo , a full shot of adrenaline,damn horror

One of the best scenes in the 1st season Billy Bob is a beast

So cold

Thank you for this! I absolutely love this scene.

I would love to have that kind of charisma of being totally intimidating and menacing without having to break a sweat, no harsh language, no shouting, just cool, calm and calculated.

I tried this, the cop peppersprayed me

"That you choose to walk into the light instead of the darkness." When i first saw this, at this point laughter broke out from me. So absurd, but so dark, so creepy. Lorne Malvo was truly demonic here.

So much soft-spoken menace. Malvo must have been a Sith.

Hell yeah that's one of the best scenes in the series Maps saying there used to be dragons here but I think the key thing that made him back off was to say that he chose to walk into the light instead of the darkness......

IRL : "Well ok then Mr.dRaGoN, step outta the fucking car."

He rolled a nat 20 on the intimidation check.

"Yeah yeah okay thats a warning for you. get along mister "

is it a movie a tv show ? man he played that cop like a violin,

Oh my God the intimidation factor here gives me chills

y’all i do NOT advise trying this in real life, it did not go the way i anticipated

Love this scene so much

Billy is a humble man. I met him once. This is why this scene is very genuine. He's not acting. The officer is Tom Hank's son.

Hey you guys, listen!!....You could actually hear his balls shrinking!

I've been waiting forever for this show to come on Netflix

This scene is GOAT

Amazing scene. As badass as it gets.

"Because apps used to say there were Pokemon here. They still do. But they ain't fuckin' real kid."

This is solid writing/acting. Intimidation at it's finest. As good as "I'm over here" Joe Pesci in Casino.

Me whenever someone tries to get close

2:02 I love the change in his tone here

Haunting af

if ever one wanted to express tension and fear calmly, this is the way it's done. what an absolutely brilliant and utterly terrifying scene! EXTREMELY well done!!!

Sometimes you need to step into the darkness, to bring the light.

Colin Hanks is brilliant in this show 👏 👌 🙌

Just finished this season. I now love Billy Bob.

Incredible scene, perfect dialogue and tension. Delivered with such beautiful subletly. I like to believe that he turns up the radio and bad to the bone starts playing as he drives away.

great scene

Now, let’s imagine this was NYC. There would be a whole clip in Billy Bob’s face before he could say, “Boo” lol

Good choice. I'd be the most passive cop on earth, fck taking risk

Yeah, I would have let him go too...

Best moment ever

That's one hell of a way to avoid a ticket.

He went back to the car wondering, how did I became a cop!! Lol I wouldn’t blame him tho .

The voice of his daughter over and over annoyed the fuck out of me.

omg!!!! this is deep shit!!!!

That's pure genius writing.

Strong frame

I am the dragon

He woulda called backup and drew his gun at that point.

Has something like this happened in any other movies or television shows? Because it seemed so familiar when I saw it...

Its Tom Hanks son!!!

To be real though, the rest of the show wouldn't have happened if malvo didnt decide to whip his stolen vehicle around like a teenager. Im not gonna say thats bad writing though, i can totally see malvo driving around like that just to get attention because he wants a little more chaos

Almost reminds me of the Town when the bank robbers got out of the van with ski masks. The old school officer looked them right in the eyes and as they stared at each other the Officer looked down and continue to read his paper as they walked off.

Everybody gangsta until Professor Gellar takes over

Every time I try this I end up face down on the pavement with my hands cuffed behind my back.

Then again it did give the appearance as if there wasn't a whole Lotta cops to go around

Hi ! I would like to submit subtitles to your videos, but apparently it doesn't work. Would it be possible ?

I think I don't need to explain where is sling blade from again?

[Terrifying Presence]

"You're making a mistake!"

And that people, is how you get out of a speeding ticket

Don’t think he would be saying that to Wyatt because last time I checked he was sitting in his chair and that’s a FACT!

if i ever do a twitch stream this will be my closing video

This sense makes me get a dragon tattoo
