Lorelai: I get it, I'm horrible. So why don't you disown me and adopt Christopher? You love him.
Richard: Don't be a martyr, Lorelai. And don't be naive. Do you think I love the boy who got my daughter pregnant? I wanted to kill him. I would have, too, with my bare hands. But there was a proper procedure to be followed in a situation like this.
Lorelai: Marriage.
Richard: Christopher was willing to follow the procedure we laid out. You weren't.
Lorelai: What about what I wanted? Dad, didn't that matter to you at all?
Richard: Sometimes one has to sacrifice something in order to do what is right.
Lorelai: I feel indescribably sad for you right now, Dad.
Richard: Save your emotions, Lorelai. I've had my fill of them tonight.
Lorelai: So, um, we just end it here? Nothing resolved?
Richard: I'm tired.
Lorelai: Okay. Okay.
