“One Way Out” gives us not one, but two incredible monologues, as Luthen ends the episode meeting his contact within the ISB—a contact who wants out, and questions Luthen’s sacrifice in comparison to his own. A big mistake, as Stellan Skarsgård delivers the performance of the year in a haunting, melancholic, fiery soliloquy about the life he has cast aside in order for generations beyond him to see the light of freedom.
