the way you wish they were.

I want you to know I'm proud

of the man you've become.

The way you make adjustments

in the field...

...like opening a day care centre

when you lost your job.

Me, I wouldn't be able to do that.

I've always needed more structure.

I'm far from perfect, believe me.

Far from it.

I know one thing though,

those kids are gonna be crushed...

...unless your leathery old butt

comes back.

Do you smell gasoline?

That's right.

Minor setback, people.

We'll get them in the next event.

Wrestling?

Have you seen Max wrestle?

He's right. I suck.

Yeah. And that Canola guy's

hairier than my grandmother's mole.

We're stewed.

Can't we just go home?

This is embarrassing.

No one's going anywhere

until we win this thing.

- Grandpa Buck.

- Yay.

Okay. Hands in, soldiers.

It's another beautiful woodchuck day.

I knew you'd come back, Grandpa.

We couldn't do this without you.

That's where you're wrong.

Your dad is the hero.

My dad?

Don't you realise he did

all this just for you?

You're pretty lucky

to have Charlie Hinton...

...as a father.

He's a better soldier than I'll ever be.

I could never run a camp

like he can...

...or watch over you

and your mom like he does.

He may be a little overprotective...

...but it's only because he loves you

so much.

- Colonel, we've got a problem.

- Yeah, dude.

What's the situation on the ground,

soldiers?

My calculations suggest

they've cheated in nearly every event.

Cheaters, huh?

Well...

...the only way to beat cheaters

is by outsmarting them.

I've got an idea.

Okay. Okay, okay.

First, we're gonna need the skunk.

Here we go. Come on, good D,

thattaway.

Thattaboy. There we go.

Ref, come on, man. I'm growing old.

Look, here he comes.

Ref. Substitution.

Good job, Robert. Good job.

Yeah, thattaway, purple.

There we go, yeah.

That's too bad, Driftwood.

That's tough luck.

Good hands, though, kid.

Good hands.

We've got a sharpshooter.

We gotta do something.

Give me a balloon.

Billy? The water pump's over there.

No, I'm not filling it with water.

I've been holding this in all night.

You shouldn't pick on kids

smaller than you.

Yeah. Good catch. Good catch.

It's pee! It's pee! It's pee!

It's pee! Mom, it's pee!

Yes!

We're the tiebreaker.

We're gonna get the tiebreaker.

It's another beautiful woodchuck day.

Suck it up. Let's go.

Jeez, embarrassing.

Okay, let's go get them.

Remember what we talked about.

We need this one.

We need this one.

That look familiar, Charlie?

You lose this,

it's dj vu all over again.

Yeah, well, I got my best athlete here,

waiting to change history.

Let's go, buddy, come on.

You okay?

I twisted my ankle when I fell.

I could shoot the arrow fine, but...

- But can you climb?

- I don't know. I don't think so.

You can forfeit, Charlie, if you like.

No, no, that's okay.

Who's our best climber?

- I can do it, Dad.

- All right. Come on, son.

You're gonna race that kid.

That's gonna be tough, huh?

- Yeah, real tough.

- Like father, like son, huh?

Don't listen to him. Come on.

All right. Come on, let's go.

- All right.

- Go get him.

Okay, Ben, listen to me.

Whatever you do...

...don't drop the baton, okay?

Ben.

Just enjoy it.

Okay, here it comes.

All right, focus. Here we go.

Come on, Ben.

Go get him.

- Go Ben!

- Go Ben!

- Come on. Get up there.

- Come on, Ben.

- Get them little legs going.

- Come on, Ben.

Go, Ben.

Come on, Ben.

It's okay. It's okay, son.

I told you, you're a loser,

just like your old man.

You're not a loser, Ben.

He greased the wall. He's cheating.

No, don't listen to her.

She's a compulsive liar.

And she steals.

- You cheated.

- You're a cheater. You're a cheater.

Canola cheats. He's cheating.

He's a cheater.

He's a cheater. Canola cheats.

He's a cheater!

Ben, no, no. Get down from there.

That's dangerous, Ben.

Ben. Please, please, Ben.

Ben, get down from there.

No, no, that's dangerous.

Ben, that's dangerous.

Pounce, Bobby J. Here we go.

Up that wall.

Bobby J, go, go, go.

Go!

That's my baby. That is my...

That's my baby. Yeah!

Oh, whoa, hey, what...? Hey.

All right, Bobby J, come here.

- Come here, buddy.

- I did it, Daddy.

- I know it, buddy.

- I love you, Dad.

I love you too, son.

I love you too, you crazy kid.

You call that Canola?

That was embarrassing.

What are you, a moron?

Moron? You're the moron.

Wall coming down.

That's for telling everyone

you're not my dad.

I'm so excited. I'm so excited.

Let's go tell my mom.

She's here to pick me up.

You were really great

in the Egg Relay.

What'd I tell you?

Chicks love gold medallists.

Teach me everything you know.

Well, first you got a bird,

and then you got a bee.

Why?

Why?

Okay.

- Mr. Hinton?

- Hi.

All the parents think

Camp Canola may not set...

...the best example for our children.

And so, if it's not

too short of notice...

...we'd like our kids to come

to your camp as soon as possible.

Too short notice? Don't be silly.

There's room enough for everyone.

Yeah, Dale and I can sign all

you guys up. Welcome.

- It was really my son who did all this.

- Colonel?

Job well done.

Just call me Dad.

Hey, what do you say

we go get the trophy?

- Yeah!

- Okay.
