Meanwhile, when Gordon's wife Patty and Diane were going on a vacation they went back to the house when Patty suddenly realizes she forgot Mitch's medicine for his potassium deficiency. When they were about to leave, they decide to sneak into the attic and surprise the men, but the shrink ray is activated once again, and the ladies are shrunk as well!

- Move around here. We'll lure him in.

He touched me.

His antennae touched me!

Move around! Move around!

Move around!

- Oh, no! My foot. I'm stuck!

- Come on. We better get out of here!

I'm stuck. I can't get

my foot out! Wayne!

Wayne, I'm stuck!

Come get me. Wayne!

Wayne, help me!

Get me out of here! Help!

Oh, my God.

We did it! Huh?

- Szalinskis check in.

- And they do check out!

Ricky King may be cute,

but he's also really conceited.

But he's also really cute.

Jenny, truth or dare.

Do you love Ricky King?

Dare.

Then your dare is, you have to call

Ricky up and tell him you think he's cute!

- No way! I can't. - I even have his

number. - You have to. You have to.

- You have to. - Come

on, come on. - She has to.

Hi, Ricky?

This is Jenny Szalinski.

Oh, I'm just having a party with some

of my friends at my uncle's house.

Yeah, the one with

the weirdo mailbox.

Listen, um, I just called

to tell you...

- Come on.

- The reason I was calling is...

I think you're cute.

She really said it!

I never thought you would...

Something to drink?

We'll be right back.

- Oh, my God. - You think that's

embarrassing? - Adam! Adam! Adam, wait up.

I have to go upstairs

for a second.

I'll be right back.

Watch out. Here comes your son.

- Hi, honey.

- Hey, Mitchy!

- Oh. Honey. Honey! - He's

in pain. - What's wrong?

If he doesn't get some potassium in his

system right away, he could pass out.

We've gotta get downstairs

to the kitchen, get those pills!

Don't worry, sweetheart.

Mommy's right here. She's right here.

We've gotta get downstairs

and fast.

- Geez. That doesn't look safe.

- There's no other way down, is there, Wayne?

Well, it's certainly the fastest route, and

it's the same basic concept as a parachute.

If we stand in front of the nozzle

as the bubble's being created,

I think the surface tension

should hold our weight.

Should? I don't like should.

- It's decided. I'm going.

- I'm going with you, Patty.

Well, then we'll head to the stereo

and meet up with you later.

You're gonna be okay doing this?

I know I've never been

a very brave person...

but for some reason,

right now I don't know fear.

When I thought that the

cockroach was gonna eat you...

I've never been so scared

in my whole life.

I love everything about you, Diane, and

I promise things are gonna get better.

Oh, you don't know how glad

I am to hear you say that.

I love everything

about you too.

You know, except for

this shrinking stuff.

Step in front of the nozzle

after the next ring.

Now! One, two, three, jump!

Okay, okay, okay.

Here we go.

Oh, it's working!

- Bye! - Bye,

guys. - Bye.

- Ohh!

- Oh, it's working.

Oh. I told her not

to have a party.

- At least there aren't any boys.

- Really.

Okay. Oh!

All right.

They made it to safety.

- We'd better get to the kitchen and get Mitch's medicine.

- Yeah.

- After you.

- Mmm.

- Ready, Butch?

- Ready, Sundance.

- Whoa, shoot!

- Whoa, shoot!

Whoa! Ooh!

Oh... Oh!

Ohh!

Hey! It's a bubble.

Oh, yeah. It's a bubble.

I'm hot. I'll be back.

- Okay, Holly.

- Whoa! Ooh!

Oh, yeah!

Whoa! Whoa!

- Hang on.

- To what?

- Wayne.

- What?

Wayne.

- Gordon? - Huh?

- Before you die...

- there's a bright light, isn't there?

- Yeah.

- Oh, no!

- Chip and dip is served.

- Here you go.

- Gordon! We're alive!

We've been saved by onion dip.

My God. We owe our lives

to an appetizer.

- Adam, let's go get some root beer.

- Let's get outta here before we get eaten.

Relax, Gordon. They're teenage girls.

How much can they eat?

No! No!

- Watch out!

- No! Ohh!

- Oh, boy, they're everywhere!

- Ohh! Oh, God!

- Hey!

- Don't let 'em eat me.

- Watch out! Aah! Aah! No!

- Do the breast stroke. Do the breast stroke.

- Mmm!

- You sound like a cow.

Jill, you're making a mess.

Well, this stuff is really good.

What's in it?

The Szalinski brothers.

Well, here we are.

Well, how are we gonna

get up the counter?

Whoa. There must be a way.

- Dare.

- Ooh! Sucker.

Okay, I dare you to do

your monkey impression.

- Want a napkin?

- Yeah.

You know, I've been watching the kids.

The girls really seem to like Mitch.

He's making 'em laugh.

But the guy that really

impresses me is Adam.

Seems so cool, confident.

Yeah. He's so different from me.

You know, I was a complete loser

when I was that age.

And when I was a teenager.

And through most of college.

Heck, I only met Diane

'cause I bashed into her car.

- Come on. I'll race you to the stereo.

- Where you goin'?

- Where you going?

- Come on!

Wayne. Whoa!

You're gonna love this!

Head start! No fair! Whee!

- I'm coming through!

- Whoa!

Come on!

- Oh!

- And the man does a belly burner!

I haven't done that

since I was little.

Shh!

It's probably just the neighbors.

Give me the doll.

Here. What are you gonna

do with it?

- Shh. -

Okay. - Okay.

- Shh!

- Okay!

- Hey, Jen.

- Ricky King. What are you doing here?

Well, you said you were having a party,

so we figured we'd drop by.

- Hi, Vince. Hi,

Trey. - Hey. - Hey.

- What do you got there?

- Oh, nothing.

- I can't believe it.

- Come on, guys. Let's show 'em how to have a real party.

- Man, this place is hot.

- Ricky King! Oh, my God!

- Shh!

- What is he doing here?

- Hi, Ricky!

- Oh, great.

Teenage boys. There are now

teenage boys at this party.

- Hey! My stereo!

- Hey! My daughter!

Maybe there's a stepladder.

Ohh! Ohh! Oh, no. Oh, no.

Move. Move. Come on.

Oh, God, why didn't I squash him

when I had the chance?

Excellent CDs. Um, do you

have a remote around here?

Yeah. Y-You want me

to turn it on?

Uh, no, I want you

to hand it over.

Gimme that!

Hey!

Watch this.

- Hey, I wanna sit there, man.

- Huh?

Hey, cut it out!

He was there first!

Oh, so, what, he had dibs on it?

This gum wrapper

will do the trick.

Uh, w-w-what are these

little kids doing here?

Yeah. I mean, you're too small.

You must be, um, this tall

to stay downstairs.

I'm calling Mom.

This is getting way out of hand.

Who does he think he is?

You can't push my kid around like that.

You are dead meat, mister!

Clark, you're three-quarters

of an inch tall. Now is not the time.

Now, help me with this foil.

Why isn't it coming after us?

I don't know. Maybe he's gone.

Oh, look. His leg is caught

in the spider web.

Ohh, that's so sad. And

daddy longlegs are good bugs.

They eat mosquitoes

and leave humans entirely alone.

What, is there a daddy longlegs ad council

that feeds out this positive information?

- Let's go.

- No, Diane, I think we should help him.

D- Daddy? We're your friends.

We come in peace.

I think he understood me.

Um, Diane, d-do you have

a, um, a nail file?

- Yes.

- Okay.

'Cause while I'm filing,

I want you to talk to him.

You know, distract him so he

doesn't flail around a lot.

Talk to him. Talk to a bug.

You know,

find some common ground.

You both spend a lot of time

in this kitchen.

All righty.

Stuart Gordon

Stuart Gordon (born August 11, 1947) is an American filmmaker, theatre director, screenwriter, and playwright. Initially recognized for his provocative and frequently controversial work in experimental theatre, Gordon is perhaps more widely known for work in film. Most of Gordon's cinematic work is in the horror genre, though he has also ventured into science fiction and film noir. Like his friend and fellow filmmaker Brian Yuzna, Gordon is a fan of H. P. Lovecraft and has adapted several of the author's stories for the screen, including Re-Animator, From Beyond, and Dagon, as well as the Masters of Horror episode Dreams in the Witch-House. He has turned to the work of Edgar Allan Poe on two occasions, directing The Pit and the Pendulum in 1991 and The Black Cat for Masters of Horror Showtime series in 2007. His science fiction films: Robot Jox (1990), and Fortress (1992) have both become cult classics. With Brian Yuzna and writer Ed Naha he co-created Honey, I Shrunk the Kids for Disney Studios and executive produced the sequel Honey, I Blew Up the Kid. He also co-wrote Body Snatchers for Warner Brothers in 1993 and The Dentist for Trimark in 1998. He produced, co-wrote and directed the science fiction comedy Space Truckers starring Dennis Hopper in 1996. He also produced and directed The Wonderful Ice Cream Suit written by Ray Bradbury in 1998. In 2003 he turned to film noir and produced and directed King of the Ants based on the novel by Charlie Higson. This was followed by a film adaptation of David Mamet's dark play Edmond starring William H. Macy in 2006. And in 2007 he produced, co-wrote and directed Stuck starring Stephen Rea and Mena Suvari. more…
