How I Met Your Mother · Season 8, Episode 13

Barney, Robin Sr and others in “Band or DJ?”

[Robin is still angry over being kept in the dark about her father getting married, but decides to meet him at Pizzazzy's and hear his side]

Your dad has something to say.

RSRobin Sr

I'm sorry for getting married without consulting you. It was wrong of me.

There, now Robin-

RSRobin Sr

I know that no mere apology will fix this, and that is why I've asked Carol for a divorce.

What?

RSRobin Sr

She's heartbroken, understandably. Possibly suicidal -

I did not tell him.

RSRobin Sr

But if that's the price for my daughter's love, then I will gladly let Carol pay it. Was that not what you wanted?

You want to know what I want? [Robin Sr nods] A normal dad, that's all. I want you to give this blonde guy permission to marry me, come to the wedding, give me away, smile in the pictures, and then dance with me like a normal dad! Is that too much to ask?
