A scene from Look Who's Talking 1989

Mollie's apartment. James is babysitting whilst Mollie is out. Doorbell rings; James answers the door and is greeted by Albert

James

May I help you?

Albert

I am here to see my son.

James

Sorry about that sir, I think you have the wrong apartment.

Albert

Is this Mollie and her son? I am the father.
James stammers for a moment, believing that Mollie was artifically inseminated, but goes along with it

James

So you say you are the boy's father?

Albert

Yes, and I would like to see my son! The law is on my side, buddy boy!

James

OK, if you are the father then maybe you can answer me these questions. When was he born?

Albert

July 3rd.

James

What is his favorite cereal?

Albert

I don't know.

James

Cheerios! What was his favorite stuffed animal, Fred or Barney? It's Fred right?

Albert

Uh yeah it's Fred.

James

No it's Barney, how many diapers does he go through in one day?
Albert stares at James like a dog staring at its reflection in water

James

About six! Who is his favorite rock star? Michael Jackson! Seriously, do you not think a father ought to know some of these things about his children?

Albert

OK, how much is she paying you? Five dollars an hour?
Albert produces $20 bill from his wallet and presents it to James

Albert

Here, go have some fun at the video arcade!

James

Do not give me that shit!
James and Albert start brawling
