Father of the Bride Part II Page #2

Synopsis: In this sequel to "Father of the Bride", George Banks must accept the reality of what his daughter's ascension from daughter to wife, and now, to mother means when placed into perspective against his own stage of life. As the comfortable family unit starts to unravel in his mind, a rapid progression into mid-life crisis is in his future. His journey to regain his youth acts as a catalyst for a kind of "rebirth" of his attitude on life when he and his wife, Nina, find how their lives are about to change as well.

That's the big news? A house? Man, I|thought you guys were gonna have a baby.

- Oh, get outta here.|- Us too.

I know. Me too.|That's what I thought.

That's what|we were hoping for.

- Well--|- Tell 'em.

Your wish came true.|I'm gonna have a baby!

- We're pregnant!|- Oh!

- Congratulations.|- Oh, this is so--|- Thanks.

I never liked|that Bryan MacKenzie.

Not from the moment|I laid eyes on him.

Here my little girl was playing house,|and he had the nerve to--

- George.|- What do you say, Dad?

Congratulations.

You too.

Congratulations.

- Oh!|- Grandpa!

''Grandpa''? First that runt|steals my daughter, now he|makes a grandpa out of me.

The baby is due July 26, and I like that|'cause that's a good even number.

Of course, it is|going to be very hot.

But I'm sure she's not|gonna mind. Oh, God. Oh, George.

Can you believe the same doctor|who delivered Annie is going|to be delivering her baby?

- Oh, honey. It's so amazing.|- Yeah.

Oh, George!|I have a great idea.

What if Franck did|the baby shower for us?

- Franck?|- As a favor, honey. George.

What? I thought|you liked Franck now.

- I never actually said|I liked the man.|- Yes, you did. Yes, you did.

When we were at that party|with those people from whatcha-callit,

- you were just raving on about him.|- All right. Well, maybe it slipped out,

but I didn't mean it.

Nina, get a grip.|I'm not gonna go into hock...

to give Annie a baby shower.

I just finished|paying for the wedding.

Oh, now my stomach hurts.|Where'd you put my Tums?

All right, honey. Okay. Okay, okay.|It was just a thought. Calm down.

What's the matter with you anyway?|You didn't say a word during dinner.

- You're acting as if|you're not happy about this.|- Who's acting?

Oh, I see. You're not happy that your|daughter is going to be having a baby?

That's right, Grandma.|I'm not.

- Why?|- Well, for starters,|they can't afford a baby.

- Oh! Oh.|- Babies cost money.

And the older they get,|the more they cost.

I mean, they didn't plan for this.|They don't have a nest egg.

They-- They|barely have a nest.

How are they gonna fit a baby|into that shoe box they live in?

Really, George. They have more money|than we had at their age.

Also, what do they know|about raising a kid?

Annie's just a kid herself. I|mean, she graduates college and|marries the first guy she meets.

And now to get saddled with a baby|even before her career takes off.

Why must I always be the only|feminist in this family?

You know, I just|realized something.

I'm four-foot-six.|I don't shave.

I don't have a job,|and I'm gonna be an uncle.

Is there somethin'|weird about that?

Finally, someone|who thinks like I do.
