Panic

When Alex (William H. Macy) confesses to a shrink (John Ritter) that he kills people for a living, he honestly doesn't know why he's visiting a psychiatrist. To us, though, Alex's ennui is palpable; he looks as if he's among the walking dead. We see him kill a man in broad daylight and nod to his victim almost apologetically before throwing the gun away. An emotional cripple thanks to his domineering dad (played by Donald Sutherland as household evil personified), Alex can't get out of the "family business" or experience normal human joy.
