Meet the Parents:Gaylord "Greg" Focker is a nurse living in Chicago. He intends to propose to his girlfriend Pam Byrnes , but his plan is disrupted when he learns that Pam's sister's fiance had asked Pam's father for permission before proposing. Greg and Pam travel to Pam's parents' house to attend Pam's sister's wedding. Greg hopes to propose to Pam in front of her family after receiving her father's permission. But this plan is put on hold when the airline loses his luggage, including the engagement ring.At the Byrnes' home on Long Island, Greg meets Pam's father Jack , mother Dina and their beloved cat Mr. Jinx. Jack takes an instant dislike to Greg and openly criticizes him for his choice of career as a male nurse and whatever else he sees as a difference between Greg and the Byrnes family. Greg tries to impress Jack, but his efforts fail completely. Greg becomes even more uncomfortable after he receives an impromptu lie detector test from Jack and later learns from Pam that her father is a retired CIA counterintelligence officer.Meeting the rest of Pam's family and friends, Greg still feels like an outsider. Despite efforts to impress the family, Greg's inadvertent actions make him an easy target for ridicule and anger: he accidentally destroys an urn that contains the ashes of Jack's deceased mother (and Jinx urinates in them afterwards), then he accidentally breaks Pam's sister's nose during a water volleyball mishap; uses a malfunctioning toilet that floods the Byrnes' back yard with sewage; sets the wedding altar on fire and inadvertently leads Jack to think he is a marijuana user. Jack himself, does a background check on Greg's MCAT scores and believes that Greg never actually took the MCAT's, and he inspects Greg's found luggage (which turns out to not be his) which contains sexual toys and gimmicks. Later, Greg loses Jinx and replaces him with a stray whose tail he spray paints to make him look like Mr. Jinx. The stray cat trashes the house, and the Byrnes arrive at the scene.
