The story about two down on their luck friends, Mitch and Sam, who start a revenge-for-hire business to raise funds to get Sam's father, "Pops," to the top of a heart transplant work is the only feature-length film directed by Bob Saget. Greg and Susan discuss how the film, initially intended by MacDonald and his team of writers to have an R-rating, was changed by the studio to have a PG-13 rating. The couple agrees that the studio interference led to a much weaker film. The two disagree on the level of comedy in this film and discuss what they liked and didn't about the film.
