A scene from Father of the Bride 1991
Nina

Ah! I'm going to have to ask you not to talk or I'll have to call Officer whatshisname over there. You've been more than I can handle, George. Annie's wedding is not a conspiracy against you. It's just a wedding. People have them every day in every country in the world. I know it's going to be expensive. But, we don't go to Europe. We don't own fancy cars. I don't own expensive jewelry, so we can afford to have a big wedding.

George

Nina...

Nina

I'll get you out of here on one condition, Banks. That you'll agree to the following. Now repeat after me. "I, George Stanley Banks..."

George

I, George Stanley Banks...

Nina

"...promise to pull it together and act my age."

George

...promise to pull it together and act my age.

Nina

"I will stop hyperventilating, rolling my eyes, unbuttoning my top collar button..."

George

I don't unbutton my top collar...

Nina

Oh, yeah? No...You mean, like this bit?

George

...stop hyperventilating, rolling my eyes, and unbuttoning my top collar button.

Nina

"I will stop making faces in general and I will definitely stop telling everybody how much this wedding is costing."

George

I don't tell everyone how much it costs!

Nina

He told you, right?

Officer

Two hundred and fifty a head?

George

Oh, well, thanks!

Nina

"I will try to remember my daughter's feelings and how with every roll of my eyes, I am taking away a piece of her happiness."

George

I love you, Nina.

Nina

Just repeat the last part for me, George.

George

I will try to remember my daughter's feelings and how with every roll of my eyes, I am taking away a piece of her happiness.

Nina

I love you, too. Let's go home.
