Quote #10
Chip was so busy feeling misunderstood that he never noticed how badly he himself misunderstood his father [...] that if there was anybody in the world whom Alfred did love purely for his own sake, it was Chip. (6.832)
Chip finally realizes what everyone else already knew: Alfred loves him more than anyone. Chip has defined his life so far in opposition to his father, so this is a huge shock his self-image.
