Summary
Male nurse Greg Focker is poised to propose to his girlfriend during a weekend stay at her parents' home. But here's the catch...he needs to ask her father first. Alas, Jack Byrnes, her cat-crazy, ex-CIA father, takes an immediate dislike to her beau. Greg's quest for approval gets sidetracked as Murphy's Law takes over and a string of mishaps turns him into a master of disaster and total pariah in the eyes of the entire family
