It is potential that is not the dick he once seemed. Still, it's a bit intrusive.

Nah. I think it's within his grounds as a parent to be concerned about his daughter's grades. Particularly if she got this far by cheating most of the way.

there's better ways to go about that than this, though.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

You can't just appear out of nowhere after abandoning your daughter for years, and put on your stern parent face and go "tsk tsk"...

You can if your daughter killed your wife and your name is Anthony Carver.

Doesn't exactly justify any of his other behavior, guys. He's thoroughly abandoned whatever moral high ground he wanted to occupy, largely because his priorities don't seem to include 'moral' and he has the intellectual high ground. This comes off less as parental concern and more another way to exercise power over her.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

I think Annie will turn this around and will completely snap at her father for being an asshole and leaving her for several years.

Then her fire elemental powers might erupt, which is likely what he planned.  He'll siphon all her essence into a powder, and then put it into his coffee. 

Then he'll drink that coffee from his "Worsts Worst Dad" mug with a gleam in his eye.

Come now. He's bad, but he's no Ragyo. Not even a Gendo.

Maybe.  Don't forget he maaaay have put her into a coma earlier for some nefarious reason.  I'm still betting on some kind of energy siphon.

Of course, I'm sure he thinks he's doing good in his own head.  It might be that he wants to "Cure" her of being a fire elemental, so the same thing doesn't happen to her if she ever has a child.

Guys? Guys? What is even going onnnnnn. Seriously? Is this a thing that's actually going to happen? Is this what triggers her to leave the court for good?
