You add all that and see this amazing character - I enjoyed all the aspects of his character.

Nikolai had an excellent poker face but you could still see the subtle sign of fear as he relaxed his face when mccall asked him what did he see. he acted his part well. didn't seem too fearful on the surface as one would expect not only from his position as a mob boss but also to his character, but with very subtle cues you could see he felt fear and what he saw in front of him, was death.

More importantly, it’s also the first point where our suspicions that McCall is in fact talking about Teddy himself as a child and they BOTH know it and acknowledge it. Notice McCall’s mocking facial expression tone saying “okay” as he briefly looks downward towards his lap when he responds to Teddy saying “oh, no …carry on”.
