Two people practice the iconic Breaking Bad line "I am not in danger, Skyler. I am the danger." One repeats it while the other coaches on raspy tone, pitch variation, and emphasizing "am" to nail the character's self-assertion.
I am not in danger, Skyler. I am the danger.
I am not in danger, Skyler. I am the danger. You can add that raspy quality to your voice. I am not in danger, Skyler. I am not in danger, Skyler. Again, every syllable we hear a different note. I am not in danger. I am the danger. Usually when you have a phrase that starts with "I am," you would emphasize the "I." "I'm the danger." But he wants to put emphasis on the fact— on him being the danger, so he stresses "am." "I am the danger." I am not in danger, Skyler.
I am the danger.
Now you. Good.
