A scene from Meet the Parents 2000
Jack

Put your hands over there. That's it.

Greg

You're sick, you know that?

Jack

Is your name Gaylord Focker? Yes or no?

Greg

Yes.

Jack

Are you a male nurse?

Greg

Yes.

Jack

Are you a pothead?

Greg

No.

Jack

Have you ever smoked pot?

Greg

Yes.

Jack

Did you spray-paint the tail of a cat to pass him off as Mr. Jinx?

Greg

Yes.

Jack

Did you do that because you desperately were seeking my approval?

Greg

Yes.

Jack

Because you love my daughter Pam?

Greg

Yes.

Jack

Do you want to marry her?

Greg

I did, until I met you.

Jack

What does that mean?

Greg

I love your daughter, Jack. I love her more than anything. But frankly, sir, I'm a little terrified of being your son-in-law. This whole weekend has given me a lot of doubts...about whether or not I could even survive in your family. I think you've got some serious issues.

Jack

If I lighten up, would you consider marrying my daughter?

Greg

Would you lighten up a lot?

Jack

Yeah.

Greg

Yes or no?

Jack

Yes.

Greg

Would you let me and Pam...live our lives and not interfere all the time?

Jack

I promise not interfere in your lives all the time.

Greg

Will you stop making fun of me for being a nurse?

Jack

Could you at least try, maybe, to consider another profession?

Greg

Jack, yes or no?

Jack

Ever?

Greg

No!

Jack

Okay, yes.

Greg

Would you let me and Pam sleep in the same room?

Jack

Don't push it, Focker. You're in a real mess. If you married my daughter, would you support her...in the way that she deserves to be supported?

Greg

Yes.

Jack

Would you be honest and faithful to her?

Greg

Yes.

Jack

Will you devote yourself entirely to her for the rest of your life?

Greg

Of course.

Jack

Gaylord Focker, will you be my son-in-law?
