although I've seen him appearing in miscellaneous series... but found that he is in the series "Scandal" (as the character in your video clip)... I think his most remarkable performance was in "The Brother from Another Planet", where through the entire movie, he uttered not a single word of dialog as the main protagonist character.

The question is - was it carefully written and rehearsed, or was it simply spontaneous and extemporaneous?

But wasn't it perfectly delivered?! He's amazing.

"Lincoln hurt your feelings!" I was literally rolling over on the sofa at that line.

Best text and delivery on the subject ever! And his line about Lincoln hurting their feelings is priceless.
