Zookeeper
It's beautiful, right?
it's great.
Hey.
What's that?
What?
Check it out.
Hey.
Okay.
Hey, there's a note in it.
Get out of here.
Yes, there is. It says:
- "Will you mar... "
- -Stephanie?
It's no secret
we've been on a journey together.
An adventure.
And I've done a lot of soul searching,
and I know...
this is just right.
So will you marry me?
That's so sweet. No.
Sorry?
I can't.
Really?
I really didn't wanna do this right now
but you're kind of forcing my hand. Um...
I'm thinking we've reached
the end of the line.
Really?
Look, Griffin, I know it shouldn't
bother me that you're a zookeeper,
but it kind of does.
And when we first started
dating, I just assumed
that you would turn into the guy that
I'd always dreamed of being with.
But...
Not your dream guy, I got it.
You had to see this coming.
I bought a ring and rented a horse.
Well, that's not my fault!
Don't yell at me on the beach!
I love...
Stop it!
Do not make this harder
than it has to be. God!
You totally set me up.
Little heads up.
I may have hired a mariachi band.
Oh, there they are.
Just ignore them.
Ignore it.
Thank you, sir.
There you go.
Good morning, Barry.
Come on, Donald, let's move
you out of the sun. Come on.
There you go, buddy.
Nice and shady.
Cherry.
Thanks, Franky.
See you at the party tonight.
Come on, Shane.
What are you doing?
We talked about this.
His food should always be fresh and
placed inside the door out of the sun.
You go down there.
I am not getting jacked up by him again.
It's been 10 years.
Bernie's cool.
Why do you bring
this stuff around here?
You trying to make
the rest of us look bad?
What? No, no.
I feel for him.
He's all alone.
Oh, he's all alone.
Look, it all starts with trust.
Sure.
You won't be so cocky when he's beating
you to death with your own arm.
Hey, Bern.
Got a little something for you.
Looks like things
just got fun around here, huh?
What is this, anyway?
Is this an old tire
or a gateway to adventure?
It's... it's adventure.
It's an adventure.
Hey, Tony. Go.
Hey. How did it go
with the tire swing?
Oh, that good, huh?
Don't know
if he's gonna come around.
Don't get discouraged. Bernie feels what
you're trying to do. All the animals do.
You're like the hippo Whisperer.
I don't know.
Hey, is that
the new release cage?
Yep.
The eagle enclosure's almost done.
I gotta tell you, it is amazing.
Great job.
Thank you.
It's getting a lot of attention.
In fact, I may be sitting on
an offer to work my magic
at the Nairobi Zoo in Africa.
Oh, man.
Ahh...
Wow, that's awesome.
Congratulations.
I'm thinking about it, but...
It's great to be wanted.
You know how that feels.
Oh, I've been in play.
There was a zoo in New Hampshire that
was coming after me pretty hard.
It wasn't so much a zoo.
It was more an animal farm.
But the animals
were nice. Cool.
Not big like here.
We didn't have the...
They had a couple badgers.
A badger and a...
They had a sick raccoon. Sick.
His name was Peter
and he was big.
Hang in there, girl.
Whoa.
What happened?
She's having trouble breathing.
What's happening?
She's stable and She's sedated.
Oh, my God. Okay.
What do we do, Kate?
Don't panic, Griffin.
Not breathing. Support her neck.
On my count. One, two, and...
She's a big girl.
She's a big girl.
Griffin, you okay?
Yeah.
There's something blocking her airway.
I need a laryngoscope.
I don't know what a laryngo...
it's in the drawer.
Okay, I got Post-its,
cinnamon Tic Tacs...
It's silver, curved and has a light on it.
Got it.
Come on. There's definitely
something in her throat.
Hold her jaw open.
I'm putting my hand in.
It's stuck.
No, come on.
Oh, God. Okay.
I guess I'm up.
I can't...
Come on.
Okay, I'll hold.
Hold the jaw.
Come on, you can do it.
That's a feeling
I never wanna get used to.
Hurry, hurry.
You can do it, you can do it.
I got it.
She's breathing.
Good luck getting the deposit
back on that one.
You did it.
No, we did it.
We did it.
She's okay.
Oh, God. You're okay.
Baby, I'll supply the love
This place looks amazing,
Griffin. No.
Grif, Mom and Dad would have loved this.
Thank you.
Kate.
Hi, Dave.
That's... Kate heads up our eagle program.
That's Robin.
- This is Venom, he is our reptile guy.
- Hey.
How are you?
Oh, you gotta bring it in with him.
Mm. Now onto the fiance.
Okay, Venom, reel it in.
- Okay, that feels good.
- Yeah. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hey, come on.
No, you're not married yet.
Congrats on your big day.
I don't know where you kids are going
for your honeymoon, but Omaha,
stupid with
underground fight clubs.
Okay. Um...
We're gonna circulate.
Yeah.
All right.
Congrats on being hot.
I gots to gets my flows on.
All right, folks.
I'd like to bring up the guy
who is responsible
for putting together
this little party-slash-field trip.
Dave's brother, Griffin.
Whoo! Griffin.
Griffin.
Are you going with Floyd?
Oh, yeah.
Go get them.
I'm getting them.
Let's hear it for him.
Love.
We're all here tonight
to celebrate one thing,
and that's love.
You know, finding the perfect mate
is the most important thing
in the world.
No matter what package
they come in.
I mean, you take Floyd here.
Now, porcupines, they...
They get a bad rap, you know?
And I'm sure you see the sharp quills
and the tough exterior.
But you know what I see?
Just a great guy looking for love.
And that's what Robin sees
in my brother Dave.
Aw.
- To the couple.
- Yeah.
To you guys.
Congratulations.
- All right.
- To Dave and Robin!
Hi.
I... I...
God, what was I, uh... ?
Ahem. Heh.
I, uh...
Sorry, I just lost my train of...
I got a train of... Train.
What I'm basically saying is...
I mean, I'm not...
May not be an expert on love,
you know,
per se.
But I do know a lot about animals.
He's an indigenous...
He's a woodland creature. Ahem.
Did I cover burrowing?
Did I go over burrow
because I don't know if I got... ?
I had a whole thing on burrow.
Did it get hotter, 10 degrees hotter?
Where did that breeze go?
It is hot.
My elbows are sweating.
That's weird.
I don't know why I'm telling
you this now. Oh, boy.
I had so many beautiful things...
I'm just gonna sum up.
I think sum it up,
what I wanted to say.
Dave, Robert, good luck.
That's really what it comes down to.
learn more about porcupines,
I'll be off to the side over here.
Carry on, my wayward son
Yeah. Food for thought,
ladies and gentlemen.
You invited Stephanie?
Sorry to jump you like that.
I didn't even know Robin was
gonna invite her. I'm an idiot.
You still got a thing for her,
don't you?
So, Stephanie, I saw the way
that you were looking at Griffin.
Is something going on?
I don't know.
I guess I feel bad about the
I might've been a little rough on him.
A little?
Okay, Robin, a lot.
