Write an exchange of dialogue between two (or more) characters, during which at least one character decides he/she has another “pegged” – as in, understands what kind of person they really are, what category they belong in, etc. How do they treat the other person, and the conversation, afterward? If you get on a roll with this part, go one step further and, still in dialogue, prove the character’s judgement about the other person wrong. And then how does the conversation change?
This is an intriguing concept to explore through dialogue.
