This confrontation shows that he is a very emotional, quick-to-action character. He refuses to speak to Creon privately, showing that he is very curious and public about it. In this way, Creon is a foil for him. Tiresias is also a foil, being very cryptic in speech and also recommending privacy. Tiresias is blind but can see the truth but Oedipus can see but doesn't see the truth (at first). Overall, Oedipus is prone to rash decisions and his emotions guide many of his actions before he truly considers the consequences.
