Some spoilers for The Pitt come into play in this article ahead of Season 2.
When it comes to character conflicts, one of the biggest developments in The Pitt Season 1 was the clash between Noah Wyle’s Dr. Michael "Robby" Robinavitch and Patrick Ball’s Dr. Frank Langdon. The two men are close colleagues at the start of the former’s shift (a.k.a. in the pilot), but everything changes when Langdon’s secret addiction is exposed along with the fact that he is stealing medication from the hospital. Robby displays quite a lot of rage when he learns the truth about his fellow doctor, but according to Wyle, anger at Langdon’s actions isn’t really at the core of why he is so upset, and that ultimately plays bigly into their dynamic in Season 2.
