This summer,
Touchtone Pictures...

is proud to present the sequel
all America has been waiting for...

Yeah, hello.

Is this Buster Douglas?

Yeah, well, don't worry
about who it is.

Yeah. It's a "unanimous" caller.

I'm just a fan who's a little concerned
about your career right now.

I saw the fight you had with Mike Tyson.
You beat him pretty bad.

You know, I think
you should fight him again.

Yeah, like tomorrow.

What?

All right, so it's me.
Yeah, so what?

How'd you know?
I disguised my voice.

Look, come on, Buster.
You gonna fight me or what?

Aw, please?

Come on, it's not goin' too good
with the broads, man.

Well, just loan me the belt
for the weekend.

Okay, fine. I'm givin' Robin's mother
your number.

Oh, quiet. I could still
whip the both of ya.

'Cause I'm the greatest
of all times!

Float like a butterfly...

sting like a tree... no.

Bee. No, that ain't it.
Float like a, uh...

Uh, Muhammad, I believe it's,
"Float like a butterfly...

sting like a bee."

Oh, yeah. Yeah, thanks, Sugar.
That's right.

Float like a Butterfinger,
stink like a bean. Yeah.

- [Doorbell Rings]
- Oh!

Round eight.
Rope-a-dope.

Pretty funny, Ali.

- [Doorbell Rings]
- [Tyson] I'll get the door.

Round over.

Oh, wow.

It's a baby!
Who ordered the baby?

Did it come with pepperoni?

- Hey.
- [Baby Cooing]

Wait a minute.
Whose baby is this?

Well, he's about your size, Sugar.

- Yeah, but it talks like you...
- [Squawking, Cooing]

And it makes faces like Ali.

There's a note.
Let's read it.

Let's see what this note says.

I don't know. You?
I can't read it.

Uh, " Dear Champ, remember
your New Year's Eve party?

Well, here's your baby."

Well, as you can see,
it said "Champ."

That could be any one of us.

We were all at that party,
you know.

Well, i-it's signed "Judy."

- [All] Ohh! Judy!
- Yeah.

Well, maybe we should
take turns with the baby too.

[Baby Crying]

U-Uh, I think he's hungry!

- What we gonna do with the baby?
- Give him a bottle.

Somethin' for the baby.

All right, little baby, swish it around
in your mouth and spit it out.

Or else you'll get cramps.

Yeah, all right, Champ,
come on.

Swish it around. Swish.
Now spit!

There you go.

There you go.

- [Crying Continues]
- He's still cryin'.

Uh, maybe we should
change his diaper or somethin'.

Let's try that.

Oh, wow! Looks like the little fella
had a pretty bad accident.

No, Michael, it's a girl.

Ohh!

- That's it.
- I'll handle this.

Come on, little girl.
It's the Sugar. Look close now.

In all your life, you'll never lay eyes
on a more beautiful man.

[Crying Continues]

That was pretty funny.

Oh, wait.
We gotta finish this.

Um, get some powder.
I hear babies can get rashes.

D-Did you say somethin'
about roaches?

I don't want this baby
livin' with roaches.

Hi. It's me, Muhammad Ali.

Z-Con Roach Spray,
the most powerful spray in the world.

- I said "rashes," not "roaches," Ali.
- Oh.

Come on, guys, do somethin'.
She's cryin'.

What should we do?

Do that impression you do
ofTommy Hearns.

Okay, baby, this is an impression
ofTommy Hearns...

in the last round of our first fight.

She liked that!
She liked it!

Looks like she liked it.

All right, let's sing her to sleep.
Ready? Hit it, guys.

[All Murmuring]

Greetings.

I'm Margaret Linsford-Hall,
and this is my interpreter Mr. Mbutu.

[Interpreting In Naganawanese]

...Margaret Linsford-Hall...
bung-tanga-ndosilleh.!

President Bush has seen fit
to appoint me ambassador...

to your little nation...

rather than sending me to Majorca,
as I had expected.

[Translating]

I didn't know what to expect, based on
the briefing I received in Washington...

but I find your little country
really rather quaint...

in a Third World sort of way.

[Chattering, Laughing]

Uh, we have much
to offer your country...

in terms of agricultural assistance
and hunger relief.

[Murmuring, Groaning]

L-I'm very sorry that
I don't speak your language...

but Mr. Mbutu has been so kind
as to teach me a phrase to close with.

Um...
[Speaking Naganawanese]

Jum bakoo, bare booty...

cum bwee-bwee...
[Clicks Tongue]

Uh, bango-bango.

[Shouting, Cheering]

[French Accent] May I get you
something to drink while you wait?

Yeah. I'd like to unwind.
Could you get me a Chablis?

Blind date, monsieur?
[Snickering]

Yeah.
How'd you know?

When you are French...

you can just tell.

You know, it's getting hard to climb
the corporate ladder being single.

I think that finding the proper wife...

is important to one's professional
image in the business world.

Oui. Oui.

The dating service I'm with
says this girl is one hell of a catch.

Independent, strong,
exciting, well-traveled.

I'm really looking forward
to meeting her.

[Tarzan Yell]

You must be Harvey.

I'm GraceJones.

Hi.
Harvey Bennett.

- Do you think I'm sexy?
- Um...

I said, do you find me sexy?

[Growls]

Yes! Extremely!

I thought so.

May I get you something,
monsieur?

I mean, madame.

I'm in the mood for seafood.

Ah, well, tonight's menu
has sautéed oysters...

deep-fried shrimp...

and the special of the day,
a sheleketepeletois for two...

with a little bit of
le-le-le-le on the side.

I want alligator.

Alligator?

We do not know how
to cook... alligator.

I like it raw!

- Good luck, monsieur.
- [Grace Sighs]

- Uh...
- [Grunts]

Uh, Grace, what do you like
to do with your spare time?

I like to chew glass...

I like to ride sharks...

and I like to bite the heads
off of gummi bears.

Un alligator
pour Mademoiselle Butch!

One minute, Harvey.

Stand back, you weakling!

[Roars]

- [Grace Shouting]
- [Alligator Roaring]

Waiter! Check, please!

Would you like a piece
of my tail, Harvey?

No, thank you, Grace. I've got to be running.
I've got a fax coming into the office.

It's about that time.

It's a real important fax.

The fun is just about to begin.

Wait until you see
my shrunken head collection, Harvey!

Oh, no... Aah!
