[edit] Plot
Steve Tobias (played by Douglas), is a rogue CIA agent whose son, Mark (played by Reynolds), is getting married to Melissa Peyser (played by Lindsay Sloane). Her father is mild-mannered foot doctor, Jerry Peyser (played by Brooks). When the two families meet for dinner, Peyser stumbles on to Steve Tobias' secret as he tries to set up a deal to sell a Russian submarine, the Olga, to an arms smuggler in France. As Peyser's incidental involvement increases, he is suspect by the FBI of being part of the deal. Dragged kicking and screaming, Peyser decides doesn't want to be involved in the deal or with Tobias' family. The two fathers-in-law end up dodging bullets, jumping off buildings, and stealing jets together as they attempt to avoid capture by the FBI.
