'''Greg Focker:''' No, no. I was just going over my answers to the polygraph test your dad just gave me. }}
Line 42:
* [[Embarrassing First Name]]: Greg's real first name is Gaylord. His parents also call him "Gay". What sort of parents call their son Gaylord Focker? Hippies, of course.
* [[Embarrassing Middle Name]]: Female married name variant - in ''Meet The Parents'', Jack and his wife Dina realize if/when Pam marries Greg, their daughter would be Pamela Martha Focker. Once again, this gets called back in ''Meet The Fockers'':

** Also doubles as a [[The Maiden Name Debate]]
* [[Ethnic Menial Labor]]: ''Meet The Fockers'' has Isabel, the Fockers' former housekeeper who runs a catering business. When she was working for the titular family, main character Greg lost his virginity to her. She also has a son, which leads to Jack (the father of Greg's fiancee Pam) trying to find out if Greg is the father of said son. {{spoiler|He isn't.}}
Line 81:
* [[Precision F-Strike]]: "Ass...oooole..."
* [[Punny Name]]: Mo Focker, an unseen relative. A conversation between Jack and Greg reveals that's not the extent of it, either:

'''Jack Byrnes''': I met some, yes. I met some... Dom?
'''Greg Focker''': Yeah, Dom Focker, that's my dad's... uh... first cousin. You meet his kids, Randy and Orny? }}
* [[Put on a Bus]]: The first scene we see of Bernie Focker is him taking dance classes... in Spain. It seems this will be his only appearance in the film... [[Subverted Trope|until he makes a surprise return home in the second half of the movie.]]
** Originally, Dustin Hoffman could not agree to work on the film due to disagreements with the production studio on the scope of his role... but this changed, thanks to negotiations that included [[Money, Dear Boy|a bigger paycheck]].
* [[Real Joke Name]]: In ''Little Fockers'', we are treated to the female character "Andi Garcia."

* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: Greg gets thrown off an airplane for giving one to a flight attendant.
* [[Running Gag]]: At the end of each film. At the end of the first two Jack views a video of Greg ragging on him via "hidden" camera. At the end of the third film Jack views a Youtube video of Greg talking about Jack at a seminar and basically Reiterating the crazy antics Jack pulled in the first two films.
