Danny:
Sir, I love your daughter and I want to marry her. That's why I'm calling.

Agent Jack Bristow:
First of all, Danny, the truth is this is just a courtesy call. Like when you say to your neighbor, "We're having a loud party on Saturday night if that's all right with you," what you really mean is, "We're having a loud party on Saturday night."

Danny:
Mr. Bristow.

Agent Jack Bristow:
Sydney doesn't give a damn what my opinion is. What interests me is that you do.

Danny:
It's just a custom to call the father. That's all this is.

Agent Jack Bristow:
Well then, I'll tell you what. I may become your father-in-law, that's just fine. But I will not be used as part of a charming little anecdote you tell your friends at cocktail parties so they can see what a quaint, old-fashioned guy Danny really is. Are we clear?

Danny:
Yes, sir.

Agent Jack Bristow:
Good. Then welcome to the family.
