[They let go of each other]

[Groans]
Joe Kingman : Come here. Please tell me you're not on the lam again.
Karen Kelly : No, this time she brought the warden with her.
Joe Kingman : What are you guys doing here?
Peyton Kelly : I called an audible. See, I thought you'd be better of without me. But judging by the butt-whupping you got out there, I guess I was wrong. I love you, Daddy. I want to come home.
Joe Kingman : I love you too, Peyton. I love you so much.
-
Karen Kelly : Please tell me that Peyton's all right.

[he turns around seeing that Karen showed up]
Monique Vasquez : She's going to be fine. The doctor said that she's going to be fine.
Karen Kelly : You're lucky I haven't called the police.
Joe Kingman : Karen?
Karen Kelly : I got home early and I see you and Peyton. Your face is plastered on the front of every magazine. I called Peyton hundred times yesterday. She didn't answer. I flew out here, got off the plane. And I see all of this on the news.
Joe Kingman : Karen?
Karen Kelly : Is that all you can say for yourself is Karen?
Joe Kingman : I-I thought you were dead.
Karen Kelly : I can assure you I'm not dead. How did you find her?
Joe Kingman : I didn't. She found me. Wait a minute. Is Peyton's mom still in Africa?
Karen Kelly : She didn't tell you, did she? Joe. Sara died in a car accident 6 months ago.
-
Karen Kelly : Are you saying you want Peyton to live here with you?
Joe Kingman : Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying.
Karen Kelly : You haven't even been in her life.
Joe Kingman : That's not my fault. I didn't even know she existed! And we've come such a long way in a short time.
Karen Kelly : What? You mean since a month ago when you left her in a bar?
Joe Kingman : I'm not the same man that I was.
Karen Kelly : Or an hour ago when she almost died on your watch? This is not about you. This is about Peyton, what's best for her. And she needs to be in a stable home with someone who's known her her whole life.
Joe Kingman : Peyton needs her father. She needs me.
-
Karen Kelly : That's not your decision to make. Sara appointed me her guardian.
Joe Kingman : I missed 8 years of Peyton's life. And I'm not gonna miss any more. And I will fight for this.
Karen Kelly : Oh, that would be a great thing to put her through, don't you think? Do you have any idea how to take care of a child?
Joe Kingman : I've been doing it for a month now!
Karen Kelly : And look where we're standing, Joe.
