very important night, and if I have
to lockyou up to keepyou out of ourway...
- don't think I won't do it.
- Look!
Ow!
Ow! Ow!
Don't trifle with me,
you demon spawn!
Now that's a foolish place to hide.
[ Groans ]
One down, two to go.
[ Muffled ]
Let me out ofhere! Let me out ofhere!
It's freezing cold!
Let me out!
Kevin, haveyou seen Prescott?
- Not lately.
- Ah, typical.
Always poking around
when you don't want him...
- and when you need him--
nowhere to be found.
- [ Doorbell Rings ]
Ah! Guests already?
Whatever happened to fashionably late?
[Natalie ]
Well, I don't like to boast, but...
- yes, it will be the party ofthe season.
- [ Beep ]
Oh, I'm getting another call.
All right. See you there.
Hel lo? Carmel i na, how are you?
[ Mouthi ng Words ]
What? Oh, no!
They're snowed in.
Their flight's been canceled.
Wel l, so am I. Devastated.
Well, all right.
We'll see you tomorrow.
Merry Christmas.
[ Phone Beeps Off]
What are we gonna do now?
It's gonna be just an ordinary party.
Christmas Eve at your place
sounds anything but ordinary to me.
It's hardly the party
ofthe season.
Peter.
- What ifwe announce
our engagement tonight?
- Tonight?
I know we were gonna wait till
afteryour divorce was final...
but it's onlya few weeks away
andyourkids alreadyknow...
and it'll make tonight
so special.
Well, if it makes you happy.
Yes!
[ Chuckles ]
Where are those guys?
- Marv, I gotta tinkle.
- Vera, you can tinkle next week.
[ Marv On Headset ]
Always in a hurry.
Door, open.
All right.
Now, you remember the plan?
- Which plan? Harry's plan?
- What-- No! Not Harry's plan!
- The one involving rope and a bag!
- Why areyou yelling at me?
I'm notyell--
- Doyou remember the plan?
- Yeah.
- Now, when the prince comes up to bed--
- We bag him!
- That's right. We kidnap the kid napping.
- You're a genius, Marv.
That's right.
Door, open.
Now, the prince goes
in the bag.
- The bag goes out the window.
- Uh-huh.
We climb down the rope.
Door, close.
Right.
[ Marv On Headset ]
Everybody in the van.
And we're gone before
they know what hit 'em.
Beautiful plan, Marv.
Elegant in its simplicity.
All right. Let's tryit out.
Get in the bag.
Me? Why don't you
get in the bag?
Because I'm the boss.
Get in the bag, Vera.
- I don't wanna get in the bag.
- Vera, just get in the bag! Please!
You didn't tell me
I was gonna get in no bag.
I was saving it. It's gonna be fun.
Ooh, we're in the bag!
- [ Grunting ]
- [ Groaning ]
Nice. All right.
Window, open.
Ahh.
[ Grunts ]
[Vera ]
Uh, Marv. Ooh. Oh.
[ Grunts ]
Don't worry, honey. I got ya.
Marv! Let me down easy.
I always do, baby.
[ Straining ]
Shouldn't have had
that last piece of cake.
[ Yelps ]
[Rope Creaking]
- Perfect.
- Door, open.
[ Screams ]
- [ Groans ]
- Don't worry.
Everything's under control.
Uh, uh, Marv--
[ Screaming ]
- [ Thud]
- Easy...
but still way cool.
[ Marv Groaning]
Thanks for breaking
my fall, pumpkin.
[ Hoarse Voice ]
I always do, baby. Okay.
Get out and stay out!
- I know what you're trying to do.
- Oh, yeah, wise guy? What?
You're trying to
kidnap the prince.
Shut up,
ya little moron!
- I'm gonna kill him.
- Okay.
[ Chuckling ]
[ Raspberry]
Vera, honey.
Little help?
Oh, yeah, baby. That'd be great.
I sure could use it.

a special announcement.
