There going after him embarrasses the actual father (Bruce Greenwood)

The finally catch up with him in Sacramento at a concert. He and his older girlfriend are following a band. The girlfriend ditches him for a band member, and the two fathers take him to a hotel, he was passed out from drugs or alcohol.
They are ready to take him back, but he is determined to chase the girl. He next catches up with her in Reno, with the two fathers close behind. He has also stolen $5000 from a drug dealer and buys a necklace for the girl. The drug dealers are after him, and the two fathers coe through with head butts so they can get away. They have to convince the girl to quit leading him on and be honest with him. Then they are set to go home. They get Scott back to his mom, who admits she lied to her two exes. However Scott confides to them both separately that they are his father. Robin borrows Jack's car to go to the airport, but instead picks up a girl with the fancy car, and they decide to drive rather than take a plane.
There is enough comedy in this film to be fun. It opens with a suicide attempt on the part of Dale which was a bit alarming. There is also drug usage and the concert seen is also a bit disturbing.
