Ein Vater zuviel (1997)
Jack Lawrence ist ein charismatischer und erfolgreicher Anwalt. Eines Tages bekommt er Besuch von einer seiner Ex-Verflossenen, die ihm gesteht, dass er Vater ist. Fast zur gleichen Zeit bekommt der chaotische und Schriftsteller Dale Putley ebenfalls Besuch von der gleichen Frau, die auch eine Ex-Geliebte von ihm ist, und ihm wird auch eine Vaterschaft kundgetan. Durch eine Reihe von Zufällen laufen sich Jack und Dale über den Weg und erfahren, dass sie angeblich beide die Väter des 17-jährigen Scott sind. Doch nun steht die Frage im Raum, wer denn nun wirklich der reale Vater ist! Als sie Scott treffen und ihn zur Rede stellen wollen, flüchtet dieser und nun müssen sich die beiden Männer zusammenraufen, um ihren angeblichen Sohn wiederzufinden.
