...story, here she has only one kit, Ash (Jason Schwartzman), who is petulant, undersized, uncoordinated and insecure. "You're supposed to be my lab partner," he says to a comely young fox named Agnes, who is distracted in their biology class by the Foxes' glamorous houseguest, Ash's cousin Kristofferson (voiced by Anderson's brother Eric). "I am," Agnes protests. "No you're not," he scolds. "You're disloyal."

"We've known for the last five years that that was probably his worst nightmare," Nader Hasan, a cousin, told Fox News.
