In the riotous sequel to "Meet the Parents" (2000), Gaylord "Greg" Focker (Ben Stiller) is engaged to marry fianc�e Pam Byrnes (Teri Polo), the daughter of retired CIA agent Jack Byrnes (Robert DeNiro). Now that Greg is "in" with his soon to be in-laws, they all travel to Miami to meet Greg's unabashedly free spirited parents, Roz (Barbara Streisand) and Bernie Focker (Dustin Hoffman). The very uptight Byrnes soon realize that they and the lax Fockers are complete opposites, and no matter what Greg and Pam try, there just isn't any meeting of minds for these two clans. It's a comic clash of family titans -- one that's about to get even more explosive, as Pam discovers she's pregnant with Greg's child.
