"You brought it up when you said that Harry didn't want to be turned," Angel points out in an entirely too rational voice. He knows exactly what Connor is doing, and yes it has it's desired effect. He's hurt every time Connor refers to Holtz as his father, but he has come to accept that is how it will always be.
"I'm not going to debate your father with you, but I will remind you that if turning you would have given me everything I wanted then why exactly didn't I didn't I do it in the mall?"
He sighs, and tries to keep his temper in check which is never an easy thing to do when Connor is in this temperament. It always comes down to this, but if it makes Connor feel better to lash out at Angel? Then Angel is fine with that.
"My relationship with you has never been about Daniel Holtz. I accept he will always be your father, but you should remember that everything I do for you is about you, Connor. It's always about you, and that included not killing him when I had the chance after what he did to you."
