Allrighty-then. After his African adventure in Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls, Ace returned to Florida, married girlfriend Melissa and became the doting father of a baby boy.

Single mom Melissa couldn't fully put the past behind her. Now a zookeeper, she and Ace Jr. (Flitter) have made a life carrying on without her husband. Much to Melissa's chagrin, however, 12-year-old Ace Jr. has begun to follow in his father's comic footsteps.
