Instead, Jack blamed Greg for the whole thing because he had the gall to flush a damn toilet!
He was instructed not to. And then kept lying about it. That one's on Greg.
So many stories, so little time.

I agree. They all were over the top cruel to Greg, especially during the volleyball game and when the septic tank overflowed. It was clearly Jack's fault for not maintaing the septic tank and emptying it in the first place, especially before a big wedding. Instead, Jack blamed Greg for the whole thing because he had the gall to flush a damn toilet! Of course, the end scene I the house where the fake cat thrashed the he place would have been my que to tell that cruel family all to F off and catch the next plane to Chicago, without Pam!

Sorry. but I've been in Greg's situation before.
I found nothing at all amusing over this situation. Atop of poking fun at Greg for being a male nurse.. Spoiled, immature Pam, selfishly pleading with him to just suck up the mistreatment and be a good sport.. I would have bailed the first available flight outta there, and told her she could truthfully explain to the folks whyand to have a nice life.
And I didn't buy the overprotective father bit. Pam is an adult. I was like, Whatever.
The film just fell flat.

That's the point of the movie. Most men are suppose to relate to Greg and him trying hard to impress his future wife's family. I mean as a woman I could relate thinking about meeting my future in laws. It's an awkward time.
Naturally any father is protective over his daughter and Jack is an example of what I'm sure most dads want to do.

but I just felt bad for Focker the whole time.
You're supposed to. He's a sympathetic character.
That being said, the movie's hilarious.
Can't stop the signal.
