What is something that someone you know did, that caused you to look at them differently?

One of my uncle’s friends always seemed like a toff jackass. He could also be very rude and abrupt.

That was until I went to see him in his job. He is a defence lawyer and was defending a young autistic man accused of rape. He utterly eviscerated both the prosecution and the police, to the point that not only was the case dismissed, but they were looking into possible charges against the accuser.

My opinion of him changed from zero to hero pretty much overnight and I keep his number in case of emergencies.
