Mr. Robot: 21 WTF Moments That Left Fans Stunned

9. Elliot Fights Himself

Before they could work together as a team. Elliot and his anarchistic alter-ego, Mr. Robot, needed battle for control of Elliot's mind first. It wouldn't have been a problem if they were on the same page, but despite sharing the same body and mind, they both wanted different things.

While Elliot wanted to stop the cyber bombings from happening and put an end to the Dark Army, Mr. Robot was hell-bent on following the plan that they'd set out. It was quite clear that this situation wasn't going to be resolved with a quick conversation, but we didn't expect them to physically battle for control of Elliot's body.

Kudos to Rami Malek for fully committing to these scenes, as he launches himself through the air into walls, punches himself in the body and face and much more, eventually becoming a bloody mess. It could've looked corny and overacted, but he manages to make this one man scrap look believable.
