Dialogue
- [while canoeing on the river]
- Mimi: [pointing to toucan in flight] Hoko!
- Michael: Hoko; bird. Bird who can't sing: Hoko Ono.
- Michael: That's my son?
- Patricia: [nods her head] His name's Mimi-Siku.
- Michael: His name is what?
- Patricia: Mimi-Siku.
- Michael: Mimi Siku?
- Patricia: Roughly translated, it means "cat piss".
- Michael: He picked the name "cat piss"?
- Patricia: He was six years old at the time. It's a territorial thing.
- Michael: You sure he's mine?
- Patricia: Positive. He's got your nose, and he thinks he's never wrong.
- Mimi: [initiates Karen into his tribe] You Pinari now. Choose a name.
- Karen: Choose for me.
- Mimi: [thinks for a moment] Ukumay.
- Karen: What?
- Mimi: U-Ku-May.
- Karen: What does it mean?
- Mimi: It means "Sound of rain on river water."
- Karen: "Ukumay." It's pretty. [kisses Mimi, and they kiss passionately]
- Michael: Calm down. Please, calm down. Where's Mimi?
- Richard: I don't know. He's probably in a bar hitting on a cocktail waitress.
- Michael: What?!
- Richard: Karen! Look, your son just spent the night in his hammock with my daughter, okay?
- Michael: Was there a pot involved?
- Richard: No, there was no pot involved!
- Michael: Then you have nothing to be upset about.
- Richard: There's nothing to be upset about?!
- Michael: No!
- Richard: Come here. There's no reason to be upset, huh? What about the fact that your son ate my prizewinning fish, including Winky. And the fact that the Russian mafia is due here any moment. I guess you're right. Ow! That's a pain that's here to stay. Karen, open up this door!
- Michael: Richard, screaming's no way to deal with a child, all right?
- Richard: What, suddenly you're Dr. Spock here? You've been a father for 30 years, now you're giving me lessons? That's good.
- Michael: You sound like an idiot.
- Richard: I'm a parent, therefore, I'm an idiot. I have spent the last 12 years worrying about my kids, about their safety, about their happiness, about their crooked teeth. No offense, Andrew.
- Andrew: None taken.
- Richard: Of course, none of this means anything to you, because in the next few days, your son will be gone! Open this door! Karen, open up! Look, I've gotta get her outta here.
- Michael: Look, two shoulders are better than one, right? Come on.
- Richard: [walking upstairs] Ring twice, knock once, ring three times. Okay.
- Michael: [sees video camera next to big wooden door] Oh, boy.
- Richard: So it is...
- Michael: What, what?
- Richard: Ring twice.
- Michael: Ring twice. [Michael rings doorbell] Got it, got it.
- Richard: Knock once. [knocks] And then you ring three times.
- Michael: You sure it's three?
- Richard: Yes, it's definitely three times. [Michael rings doorbell]
- Michael: Okay. [clears throat; nothing happens]
- Richard: Okay, so that's wrong. So we do, ring three times... [rings three times]
- Michael: I'm not sure--
- Richard: Knock once, and ring twice.
- Michael: No, it--
- Richard: Yeah.
- Michael: [sighs] We're gonna get shot.
- Richard: Uh-uh, it's gonna be fine. It's gonna be good. [nothing happens]
- Michael: That-that really worked great. I-I remember it differently now. I got what it is.
- Richard: All right, Mr. Wizard, take over.
- Michael: Ring twice.
- Richard: Take over.
- Michael: You knock once.
- Richard: And ring--
- Michael: [stops Richard] No-no-no, you do not, whatever you do, ring four times. [Holds up hand and indicates fingers to remind Richard of the man losing his fingers]
- Jovanovic: [from inside] Open damn door! Chort Vozmi!
