He actually seems to be trying in these past two pages, but just cannot get over whatever it is about Court Annie that makes her hard for him to be around without freaking out.
Don't forget this is the man who abandoned her and then returned only to be monstrous. He's been a consistently terrible father even if you cut him a ton of slack for circumstances.
