Ben Stiller gets arrested for being rude to a stewardess and for saying "bomb." Robert De Niro races to the airport and does a quick interrogation. De Niro approves of the wedding and asks "will you be my son-in-law?" Stiller proposes to Pam. She says yes. Pam's mother says that all that's missing is for her and De Niro to meet Stiller's parents.
