'Fine, you don't know what to say. Can you just - trust that I know what I'm talking about, for one minute? I've been here a bunch of times before and this is your first time, so listen would you?'
He's not really angry. Just frustrated.
'You wanted him away from Remba to be loved and brought up right. I can help with the bringing up but I can't promise love. I need to hear that you're not going to hold it against me if it all goes wrong, Random. That you understand that having him here, with me, doesn't guarentee that it's going to make things happy for him. I told you I'll try and I will but you have to stop pretending that everything's going to be perfect. Kids just don't work out that way.'
