Meredith Blake

"Here's what's going on, buddy! The day we get married is the day I ship those brats off to Switzerland. Get the picture? It's me... or them. Take your pick."

- Meredith Blake

Meredith Blake is the main antagonist of the 1998 remake of "The Parent Trap". She is a greedy gold-digger who wants to marry Nick Parker for his money. She is 15 years older than the two main protagonists, Hallie Parker and Annie James, the separated twin daughters of Nick and Elizabeth. One of her goals was to send Hallie Parker (back when she was unaware that she was a twin) to a boarding school in Timbuktu.

While going camping with Nick and the twins, the protagonists put a lizard in her water bottle. Later, after Meredith threatens to make their lives miserable from the day she gets married (if they play another trick on her), she finds another lizard on her head (which the twins have snuck on her earlier). That night, while she is sleeping, the twins drag her mattress out of the tent and push it into the water. She starts screaming when a bird lands on her and she falls into the water. When she gets out, she tells Nick that the day they marry is when she ships the twins off to Switzerland. After she demands he pick her or them, he picks them. This angers Meredith and she breaks off the engagement. It is unknown what happens to her next.
