Brian
You know, driving down here, I tried to put myself in your place. Your daughter comes home after spending four months in Rome, and uh, I'm sure you couldn't wait to see her...and she shocks you with the news that she's getting married. And to somebody you've never met before. I'm sure that was pretty..."heavy"...to use a word from your generation. I just want to say that I'm an upstanding citizen, and I've never been engaged before...I've never really been in love before. And, uh...I think Annie is the greatest person I've ever met. And I can't wait to marry her and one day...have children...and grandchildren. And I'm going to do my best to be supportive of her dreams...and she's a very gifted architect...and um...I'm just thrilled that I met her! I love your daughter. The feelings I have for her are never going to change. And I'm here to stay.
Oh, honey!
Mom! [they hug]
Brian
That's okay Mr. Banks, we don't have to hug.
Well...um...maybe later.
Well that was just a...that was just about the best thing I ever heard anybody say!
Brian
Well, I meant it.
Brian
Good night. Good night, Mr. Banks.
Oh, you can call him George. Or Dad!
George will be fine.
Brian
Okay. I'll say it next time I see you.
Drive carefully. And don't forget to fasten your condom.
Dad!
Seat belt! I meant...I meant seat belt.
Honey, I'm putting your father to bed. This has been a very big night for him.

Not only was I not getting rid of the kid, I now found myself talking him into staying. [to Brian] You know, Brian...Annie is a very passionate person and passionate people tend to overreact at times. Annie comes from a long line of major overreactors. Me. I can definitely lose it. My mother...a nut. My grandfather...stories about him are legendary. The good news, however, is that this overreacting tends to get proportionately less by generation, so your kids could be normal. [voiceover] As if that wasn't enough, I went on! [to Brian] But on the upside, with this passion comes great spirit and individuality which is probably one of the reasons you love Annie.
Brian
That's what I love most about her.
[voiceover]
That's when it hit me like a Mac truck. Annie was just like me, and Brian was just like Nina. They were a perfect match.
