Also while I’m here let me just say as much as I love Goneril, Regan will always be better than her in my opinion 

Point 1- Lear asks his daughters to praise him

Goneril says a whole long (and tbh overdramatic) speech about how much she loves him

Regan just goes “yeah what she said. Except like 3x more”

And lear’s like ‘WOW YOU SURE MUST LOVE ME A LOT THEN’
