A scene from Armageddon 1998
Grace Stamper

[talking to Harry on the monitor]

Daddy? [chuckles happily]

Harry Stamper

Hi, Gracie. Hi, honey. Grace, I know I promised you I was comin' home.

Grace

[confused]

I don't under... understand.

Harry

[sighs]

Looks like I'm gonna have to break that promise.

Grace

[emotionally]

I, um, I lied to you too, when I told you that I didn't wanna be like you... [smiles] because I am like you. Everything good that I have inside of me, I have from you. I love you so much, Daddy. I'm so proud of you. I'm so scared. I'm so scared.

Harry

I know, baby. But there won't be anything to be scared of soon. Gracie, I want you to know that AJ saved us. He did. I want you to tell Chick, that I couldn't have done it without him. None of it. I want you to take care of AJ. I wanna see your granddad come so far from up here, Grace. He told me that God gives us children so we could have roses in December. He gave me a gardenful, a whole gardenful, Gracie. He really did. I wish I could be there to walk you down the aisle. [Grace gets teary-eyed] But I'll... I'll look in on you from time to time, okay, honey? [a tear streams down his face as he looks at Grace one last time] I love you, Grace.

Grace

[cries]

I love you too.

Harry

Gotta go now, honey.

Grace

Daddy, no! [touches the screen as Harry cuts the video feed] No. No, Dad, no! [breaks down crying]
