- Sh*t!
Whoa!
No! No!
No!
Oh!
Oh, my God!
All right, all right, stand back!
Stay back. Call 911.
(Pam ) Jinxy. Jinxy!
nobody's seen him.
He's not up in the trees.
- Jinx isn't up here.
- The neighbours haven't seen him.
You tried to milk him,
you son of a b*tch!
Dad, stop it! That's enough!
Please calm down.
How? 15 minutes to go
and the ring bearer's missing.
- The ring bearer?
- Your daddy didn't tell you?
He taught Jinx to walk down
the aisle with this little pillow.
Oh, no, no, you didn't, Dad.
Yeah, you put this around the neck
and the ribbons are for the rings.
Oh, for Christ's sakes!
- Oh, Dad.
- Now we can't have the rehearsal.
Bob, you ride with me.
Larry, come with your car.
lf we're not back in an hour,
we'll reschedule for the morning.
No! We cannot cancel the rehearsal
for some stupid cat.
How could you say that? That cat's
been like a brother to you!
We just let him wander the streets
without food, water or toilet?
- Dad, Greg'll find him.
- What?
Yeah, what?
That's wonderful.
Fine.
Fine. OK. Denny? Denny? Denny!
Dad, l'm here.
Oh, OK.
You'll be the ring bearer for now.
l'm not wearing that stupid pillow
on my head.
Oh, yes, you damn well will!
Jinx!
Jinx! Come on, Jinx.
"Let him wander the streets
without food, water or toilet...
"Focker"!
Actually, you may be in luck.
They brought in a Himalayan
There he is.
Holy sh*t! That's Jinx!
- Jinxy...
- Uh, let me see that photo again.
Picture him without the stupid cap.
Jinxy! Jinxy!
Uh, no.
You see, in the picture
your cat has an all black tail,
and this one has a white tip.
No, l'm sorry about that, chief.
Looks just like him.
Almost. Except for that tail.
(Chainsaw whining)
- Dearly beloved...
- (Crash)
Dearly beloved!
We are gathered here today
to join Dr Robert Banks...
(Whining and crashing)
Dearly beloved!
We are gathered here
on this beautiful day to join...
(Meowing)
..in holy matrimony.
This is a special day...
He found him!
lt's him!
Oh, Daddy, it's Jinx!
My little baby!
We found you!
We found you!
(Pam ) This is great!
- (Bob ) Way to go, Greg!
- Gave us a little scare, huh?
Jinxy! Aww...
# Ohh
# Oh, for once in my life
# l got someone who needs me... #
To Greg!
(All) To Greg!
- (Dina ) Where is Greg?
- ln the rest room.
in the north shore.
He's a brown and black Himalayan
with an all black tail.
Mr Jinx.
Yeah, you check. l'll call back.
(Laughter)
- Hey, it's the man of the hour.
- Hey-hey!
Sorry, folks. Had to pay
Greg, nice work with the cat today.
Thanks, Jack. Glad l could help.
Hey, we never did finish
l'd like to talk about.
We'll get right to it
as soon as we get back.
l'm gonna hold you to that.
Circle of Trust.
Guess who's back in
the Circle of Trust?
(Paper tearing)
(Chewing)
(Meowing)
Whoo!
l should ask him to dance.
What do you think?
Sure. He could, uh, whittle
a private dance floor for you two.
l'm serious.
l saw some beechwood outside.
He's very handy.
He's an extremely handy...
and crafty craftsman.
l shouldn't say that, but...
Come on, seriously. Part of you
wishes you ended up with him.
Yes, he's very talented.
But it would have never worked out.
Why not?
l was never in love with Kevin.
l'm in love with you.
- That's a good explanation.
- Think so?
- Thought you'd like that.
- l do.
l'm glad.
No, Jinx. Mr Jinx.
l called you half an hour ago.
OK, l already...
Airline.
Uh, it's, um...
lt's...brown...
With a little bit of black...trim.
Yes.
'Please enter your four-digit code.'
(Entering numbers )
'Jack, it's Hank from next door.
'Guess who wandered over here today?
'Mr Jinx. He's not wearing
his collar, but it's Jinxy.
'So just give me a jingle
when you guys get home,
'and l'll bring the rascal over.'
OK, just, uh, keep checking, please,
and l'll call back. Thanks.
- Any luck?
- No, they're still looking.
Jack, this is a great party.
Sometimes things just come together
in their own...kookie sort of way.
Yeah. Like the way you found Jinxy
at that animal shelter, huh?
Yeah-huh. Right.
- Well, he's home now.
- Yes.
You know,
something about that ball of fur
just puts a big smile on my face.
- Mm.
- Yeah.
You haven't seen his new tricks?
No. Mm-mm.
- Well, l'll show you.
- We don't have to do it tonight.
- He's probably tired.
- No, he'd like to show you tonight.
(Linda ) Honey, l'll drive.
- Hey, Larry, why don't l drive?
- Good idea!
l've always wanted
to test-drive a Benz.
Be my guest, Focker.
- Sweetie, what are you doing?
Oh.
- Let's go. Hurry, hurry.
- Bye, guys.
- (Linda ) Thanks for driving, Greg.
- (Tyres squealing)
- Drives better than a Taurus, huh?
- Yeah.
- Get in the car, honey. Hurry up.
- OK, OK.
- (Tyres squealing)
- (Dina ) Whoa, Nelly!
(Larry ) Everybody comfortable?
(Tyres screeching)
You're a little wild man
at that wheel!
That's a ride, man!
Got your seat belts on back there?
Oh, Jesus, Focker!
- Jeez, take it easy!
- Benz drives like a dream.
Don't make it a nightmare.
Oh, there's Jack.
Hey, Jackie.
(Revving engine )
You wanna play, pops? Let's play.
(Revving engine )
(Linda ) OK, now, Greg... Greg?
(Tyres screech)
(Tyres screech)
ls everything OK, honey?
Yeah, just trying to make good time.
What is the matter with you?
All right,
we're gonna get home, very soon.
(Women screaming)
Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa!
lt's not the autobahn! Come on, Greg!
(Brakes screech)
(Linda ) Maybe you
should drive, honey.
Oh, no. Oh, no, please.
- Yes!
- Jack just turned.
You were supposed to make that left
at the light...Focker.
(Linda ) l'm gonna be sick.
(Denny ) Where is he going?
(Bob ) Home, home, home.
(Linda ) What a ride.
(Denny ) Who gave him the keys?
OK, we're out.
(Larry ) Does he have a licence?
(Denny ) Yeah, a licence to kill.
(Bob ) Hey, nice driving, Mario!
Lunatic. You're a lunatic!
(Pam ) Aw, leave him alone.
(Debbie screams )
(All talking)
- lt's everything!
- The cat!
God damn you, Jinx! l'll get you...!
Dad! Hey, hey! Dad! Calm down!
Where's the cat?!
- (Larry ) Cat got out! Cat got out!
- All right...
You spray-painted his tail to make
him look like Jinxy, didn't you?
What's he talking about?
and told me he found Jinxy.
He put his collar on an impostor,
then spray-painted his tail,
then he tried to beat us back
to get rid of the evidence!
Oh, no, he...
Please tell me that's not true, Greg.
lt was just a temporary solution
until l could find the real Jinx.
How could you do something like that?
l'm sorry.
What are you gonna say next -
that you set Kevin's altar on fire?
Oh, my God!
