Eva Gregory really wants a pet. And her parents really don't. Now when Eva bonds with a charming, furry little pickpocket she's in for a whole lot of Monkey Trouble. Eva's (Thora Birch) mom (Mimi Rodgers) is obsessively neat; her dad's (Christopher McDonald) allergic to fur. But when a thieving organ grinder's (Harvey Keitel) monkey escapes, Eva bonds with a new friend. As much as she tries, Eva can't housebreak her new pet ... or break him of his training to steal. And Eva's getting the blame in this heartwarming family comedy.
