• Dina Byrnes : I had no idea you could milk a cat!

  Greg Focker : Oh yeah, you can milk anything with nipples.

  Jack Byrnes : [He reacts]  I have nipples, Greg, could you milk me?

• [Jack's Poem] 

  Jack Byrnes : "My Mother", by Jack Byrnes. You gave me life / You gave me milk / You gave me courage / Your name was Angela / The angel from Heaven / But you were also an angel of God / And He needed you, too / Selfishly I tried to keep you here / While the cancer ate away your organs, / Like an unstoppable rebel force / But I couldn't save you / and I shall see your face nevermore, nevermore, nevermore / Until we meet in heaven.

  Pam Byrnes : Dad, that's beautiful.

  Dina Byrnes : It always gets me.

  Greg Focker : That's amazing, so much love, and also so much information.
