Actor Pedro Pascal took his new fake feud with fellow actor Kieran Culkin during Monday night’s Emmys to a new level.
After Culkin took a playful dig at Pascal after beating him at the Golden Globes earlier this month for his performance on Succession, Pascal got one back at Culkin during the Emmys ceremony.
Pascal, wearing a brace for a shoulder injury, joked that his Golden Globes competitor “beat the [expletive]” out of him, which is why he was injured.
The camera cut to Culkin giving a very serious look at the camera, fully leaning into the gag. The whole crowd got a huge kick out of it.
Some NSFW language to follow.

This was a very funny way for Pascal to pay Culkin back for a gag with a gag, and we hope this newfound hilarity inspires these two to collaborate on a project sometime in the future.
We hope Pascal heals up soon, and we hope Culkin starts plotting his awards show rebuttal to this awards show rebuttal.
