See? I knew I'd been friends with Jay all this time for a reason.
[The sad part is, Hal's pretty sure Alan has more interest in this than his actual father would. Since becoming a father himself, he's really had to admit that his own father was not the greatest]
If that's what you two ultimately decide to do, I'd be happy to be there. And Hal?
Yeah, Alan?
I'm proud of you, son. I had my doubts when you were younger but you've really matured.
[Hal makes a face. All this genuine emotion is painful. It's also not that he doesn't want a wedding it's just...honestly, he's never given it much thought. He doesn't know what he wants. Par for the course in his life, honestly]
Ugh, Alan.
What? I'm just glad things have worked out for you. Is that so wrong?
When you say it like that it is!
[Alan chuckles, clearly getting a kick out of making Hal cringe]
Fine, fine. God forbid. Listen, whatever you two decide to do is fine. I support you. But give the wedding at least a little consideration?
