Quote from Hank in Just a Formality
Pat: Would you like some warm cider? Robert: Oh, no. No, thank you. I don't want to take up too much of your time. Anyway... Um... The reason that I'm here... [takes deep breath] I've been thinking a lot about Amy, and she means the world to me. In fact, that's why I'm here. I wanna do things right. A- A- And out of respect for her and you, I would like to formally request your daughter's hand in marriage. Hank: No. Robert: What? Hank: No. Robert: No?! Hank: We don't think it's a very good idea. Pat: It's nice to see you again, though. You probably have a long drive back. I'll put some cider in a cup for you.
