The Man from Toronto ends on a satisfactory note as the lead characters finally embrace their true selves

What happened during Teddy's wife Lori's birthday dinner?

In the latter part of The Man from Toronto, the audience sees Teddy and Toronto celebrating the birthday of the former's wife, Lori. They are having dinner at a fancy restaurant in Washington, but are being monitored by the FBI.

However, things take a turn when The Man from Miami shows up to steal Mr. Green's thumb from Toronto and Teddy so that Sebastian Marin's terrifying mission can be successfully executed. At this point, Toronto and Teddy rush to Marin's hideout to prevent him and Toronto's handler from destroying the Venezuelan Embassy in Washington.

Upon arriving at Marin's hideout, Teddy uses his bizarre but comic wordplay to create a distraction and delay their plans. Meanwhile, the FBI infiltrates the hideout and begins raiding the location. They shoot Marin on the process, but fail to catch Toronto's handler who is rescued by The Man From Miami before his escape.

The FBI takes Teddy with them afterwards, but Toronto escapes the hideout with the money. Later on, Teddy finds out from the FBI that the finger in question did not belong to Mr. Green, suggesting that Toronto did not want to help Marin complete the deadly mission in the first place.

He receives a message from Lori that she would be living with her mother for the time being. However, Teddy rushes to stop her at any cost since he cannot bear to lose her.

Toronto's life, on the other hand, is in danger because his handler has sent multiple fatal assassins to end his life as he refuses to give her the money. Knowing that Teddy's life could be in grave danger too, Toronto heads out to rescue him.

The scene soon shifts to a massive fight sequence with the two lead characters battling the assassins sent by Toronto's handler.
