How dare she just show up here after disappearing from his life all this while, to claim that she was pregnant and that he was responsible for it? Did she think he was a fool?

“Geez, man, calm down. What happened?”
“Do you remember that chick I told you about in April? The one that I met at The Black Hat.”
