"Now I’m so far behind! I’ll never catch up.", I felt that and I am sure thousands of people will relate to this scene. When your ambition and your reality don't match. it can be a harrowing experience.

I think the saddest part though is the actor who played Mark died of an addiction in real life. So, to me this scene has deeper meaning behind it.

[RatZero]

Every once in a while, Roseanne and The Connors remind you that what you're watching isn't a comedy but a drama where the characters use comedy to get through just how messed up things are.

I had plans to go to college right from high school was so excited. Instead I became an addict from the age of 20-30. I always thought I was to far behind I can’t even continue with my plans. Well I’m 5 years sober and will graduate in 2 years from college. You’re never to far behind to begin again. This scene was so beautiful.

Everyone needs a father like Dan. A father who can make you laugh no matter how much pain you're in.

[muribes]

You can see Dan going full throttle, waiting for her to admit that she is mad at Mark, and at herself, then he immediately backs off. Damn John Goodman is good. And Lecy is just perfect.

Took Becky 30 years to realize she should have listened to Roseanne and Dan. How accurate this happens to many of us in life.

Lol “Jackie she’s an addiction specialist, you need a doctor that will give you the drugs. “ oh Darlene...

[cutiepie]

It was the “it’s my fault because I let him. I was so stupid....I was so afraid to lose him and then I ended up losing him anyway” whew the tears

[inwin]

So proud of Lecy for coming back to this show and putting in some great performances. She deserves this.

[kimberlylane]

When she said, “And now I’m so far behind! I’ll never catch up.” 💔💔💔

[adammoore]

When Dan says "whose fault is it?" he seemed to be preparing for Becky to blame him and Roseanne. Then she blames herself. So powerful.

I felt so bad for Becky, her finally admitting her mistakes and where she is now ! I was heartbroken when she said “ Remember how proud you’re were when I told you I was gonna be a doctor ?” She was more disappointed in herself than anybody, but I love how Dan comforted her when she admitted she was wrong and called her his little girl ! 💔❤️🥺

[StephenWatters]

I lost it at "I wasted so much time. Im so far behind." I think many of us feel that way when approaching 40. Even without addiction problems lol

[NerdTalkDan]

This scene is so freaking powerful not only because of the great acting but because it reframes much of the later seasons of Roseanne. Dan treated Mark like a son. Dan got Mark a job with the city when he became supervisor. Dan loved Mark, but it’s so heartbreaking because underneath it all was still this resentment for him. This anger for screwing over Becky’s future. We laughed when we saw Becky’s living in a mobile home. And we never knew what Dan and, likely Roseanne as well, were keeping bottle up. They both loved Mark and hated him. This is going down as one of the best moments of the series and the entire franchise.

A true Dad's love is pure, yet disciplined. He wanted her to become the best version of herself.

Lecy broke my heart in this scene

When you finally realize a man you loved was toxic and it hurts so much
Amazing acting

[SoCalGuy]

John Goodman, continuing to show the world how it's done.

[kateelizabeth]

"Hey, you're my first kid. My beautiful little girl. I've always been proud of you and never more than now."

Dan has always been a great dad ❤

“I’m so far behind. I’ll never catch up!” I feel that everyday.
