- Bobby!

Jenny, coat room's over there.

Everyone duck and cover. Let's go.

Go!

And these are my people.

Oh! I can't serve this.

It's original creation.

C'est magnifique.

It's dog poop.

You are dog poop.

'Quit!

What's taking so long?

The guests are waiting for dessert.

Okay, I'll distract the coat check person,

Jenny, you find the coat.

Great, good. Okay.

Uh, everyone, stay in here.

Trey, Emily, keep an eye on the kids.

Where's Bobby?

I need sea salt and Mexican chocolate.

Freshly grated, of course.

Who are you?

Assistant pastry chef, dude... Sir.

Hurry. Go!

Sea salt!

Oh, my gosh, what's he doing?

It's fine, let the kid do his thing.

We gotta buy some time.

- I wanna go to the party, too.

- Absolutely not, Katy.

Do you remember what my mommy's

fancy coat looks like?

You're good. Let's go.

Sea salt!

Thank you.

I can't believe you thought

our kids were in the city jail.

Let's just get our coats and go home.

- It's Mommy.

- Katy.

It's your kids, too.

It's Jenny.

- Where?

- No, she's not here, Barry.

I mean, Jenny is babysitting.

She's the most responsible

babysitter in the world.

If anything was wrong,

she would've called us.

Jenny. There it is.

- No!

- She's coming!

I still wanna go home.

Fine. Go home.

I'm going to get dessert.

You do that.

I have to eat dessert now.

Great. There goes our cash.

Why don't we just go get it?

Oh, I don't know.

Maybe the Coopers will recognize me.

But...

But what?

Uh, I never wear heels.

It's easy, you just stand on your toes.

Okay.

How do I look?

Almost. Not quite. Come here.

Okay.

Here we go.

No, no, there's no way I'm doing this.

- This is never gonna...

- Come on, Lola.

There are moments in life

when you just have to take a risk

and go for it.

This is one of those moments.

No.

Absolutely not.

Even worse.

- What is this?

- Celery leaf.

I don't ever wanna see this again.

Will somebody bring me

something innovative?

Innovative!

That's it!

Crushed seaweed. It's so innovative.

I hear he's from the Culinary Institute.

Some sort of prodigy.

It's all about the perfect ingredient.

It sure is, kid.

Can I help you, gentlemen?

Yeah, you see some kids come in here?

Who wants to know?

Uh...

We're their uncles.

Their parents sent us to pick them up.

I think you better wait here.

Hey!

Yeah, this is Eugene in the lobby.

I got two suspicious subjects

heading into Sky Pavilion.

I may need back-up.

Hello, darling.

Lovely party.

Where is she?

Look at all the dresses.

Hello, all.

Fabulous gala.

Oh, what about that piano player?

Wasn't that Fur Elise

he was playing earlier?

I don't know.

All I know is this mousse is incredible.

There's Lola.

The kid is good.

Let me see.

- She looks so pretty.

- Thanks to you.

Oh, I love your earrings.

My husband gave me a pair

just like that.

He told me they were one of a kind.

That's what I was told.

These were a gift from my boyfriend.

He's a police officer, a rookie.

So handsome.

How nice.

Oh, I adore your coat.

Is this real wool?

No, it's cashmere.

That's what you told me.

Clumsy me. I'll get it.

That's what it says on the tag.

Okay, fine,

so they're not one of a kind.

- You don't have to lie about it.

- I didn't.

- I swear, honey.

- You know what, it's fine, I don't care.

Let's just have fun.

I wanna enjoy what's left of the evening.

This dessert, it's a lot of fun.

Well, if you'll excuse me.

Nature calls. Toodles.

- Give me the camera.

- This is not mine.

I can't do that!

You brought the ferret!

I ain't leavin' 100 grand in the car.

- We gotta stop him.

- Not if he gets away.

- Oh, sorry.

- Nice party.

Come here, buddy. Come on!

', hey, hey, hey!

Oh, come here.

Come on, valuable ferret, come here.

Come here. Come to Tiny.

Come to Tiny.

Oh, my God!

- There he goes. Yay!

- He's on my foot.

He's on my foot, he's on my foot!

He's on my foot!

I hope we're not missing anything.

What?

Nothing. Crouton?

So, why did you want

to do that to your hair?

I don't know.

Because I'm boring.

You're not boring.

Yes, I am.

No, you're not.

Tell you the truth,

I think you're pretty cool.

You do?

Yeah.

Your music's what's boring.

- It is not.

- Yeah, it is.

Yours is boring.

Come on, guys. Time to go!

- Time to go.

- We got the money.

AJ, let's go, come on.

I'm gonna get you

when we get out of this.

If you could run

more than five miles an hour...

You just had to let the ferret get away.

Hey, isn't that...

It's along story. No time. Come on.

Uh-huh.

A big, fat man named Tiny,

a tall, skinny guy in a hood,

and a rare sapphire ferret.

Yeah, can you believe that?

Yeah, actually, I do believe you.

We did it! I can't believe it.

And with an extra 20 bucks

to get to the tow yard.

How did you get an extra 20?

Smart babysitters check both pockets.

- Nice going.

- Thank you.

You know, we actually make

a pretty good team.

- We do, don't we?

- Wait.

You know, I really

underestimated you, Jen.

Underneath all this stifled perfection,

there's a really cool chick.

Thanks, Lola.

Yeah, I can totally see why that guy

asked you to the concert.

It makes so much sense now.

What guy?

Uh, uh, I think his name was Zeke.

- Zac.

- Yeah. Uh, sounds about right.

Zac Chase invited me to a concert?

How could you not tell me?

- I forgot.

- You forgot.

That was only the single most

important phone call of my life.

What did you say?

Uh, not much.

Uh, I might've implied that you possibly

weren't interested in him.

What?

Why would you do that?

I was distracted.

You saw how cute Officer James is.

I'm sorry, Jenny, I didn't mean to...

That's great. That's great because

now he's there with Dominique Cassidy.

That should've been me at that concert.

Maybe it's not too late.

Of course it's too late.

That show is almost over,

and now, we have to get the car

and get back home.

Just forget it.

No, I won't. Taxi!

- Taxi!

- What are you doing?

The right thing.

You guys, come on, let's go!

Come on, there's still time if we hurry.

You don't have to worry

about those guys anymore, buddy.

I'm gonna get you home.

You guys won't be kidnapping any more

exotic animals where you're going.

Hey, Hal, I have a message

from the security company.

They said the alarm

went off at the house earlier,

- and the babysitter's not answering.

- Try the home phone.

Wait, wait.

We don't even have tickets.

Just let me handle this, okay?

Just for once, trust me.

- Hi.

- Ticket.

No, but what's it gonna take

to get all of us in?

You know you can't

take your camera in, right?

Give it to me, and I'll let you all in.

Right. Right, yeah.

Of course. Yeah.

I'll just take the memory card.

No, no. Stop!

You can't do that.

That means too much to you, Lola.

Yes, I can.

Let's go, guys.

Okay, go get your guy, Jen.

Guys, I can't go in like this.

I'm a mess.

- I'm on it.

- Okay.

Come on.

Emily, Trey, watch the kids.

Nobody move.
