Ray Finkle is an imposter lieutenant in the Miami-Dade Police Department, formerly the professional kicker for the Miami Dolphins, and the main antagonist of the first movie. He took the real identity of a missing female hiker and Miami-Dade Police Department lieutenant named Lois Einhorn, as he vowed revenge on Dan Marino. He is portrayed by Sean Young.
Life as Ray Finkle[]
He was originally known as Ray Finkle, an aspiring football player who was signed by the Miami Dolphins as their kicker in the mid season. When Ace found out that he missed him in his investigation, this leads him to Finkle's hometown. Mrs. Finkle shares Ray's embitterment with Dan Marino whom he blamed for the missed field goal by leaving the laces in, rather than out, which cost the Dolphins the Super Bowl and caused the entire town to turn against him. Mr. Finkle thinks that his wife is senile and says Ray's obsession with the lost championship caused Mr. Finkle to commit his son to Shady Acres Mental Hospital. Finkle's obsession with revenge against Marino pointed Ace in the direction he needed to go after seeing a film in Finkle's room. While at Shady Acres, Ace stumbled across a newspaper article about a woman named Lois Einhorn who was lost in the wilderness while hiking and is missing. Unbeknownst to anyone is that Finkle escaped from Shady Acres and assumed her identity in a subtle attempt at revenge for his former team. Since then, Finkle's parents were being pestered by the staff of Shady Acres to pick up his stuff from storage.
Kidnapping of Snowflake and Dan Marino[]
After getting on female hormones, growing his hair out long and getting a nose job, breast implants, a butt lift, and silicone injections in his hips to create the perfect disguise to hide behind while he carried out crimes like kidnapping and murder, Finkle spent seven years posing as a policewoman in the Miami-Dade Police Department's police force. He performed numerous sexual acts on men over this period of time to ascend through the ranks and to keep others on his side. The cross-dressed Finkle was able to begin his revenge on the Dolphins by kidnapping Snowflake who now had Finkle's old Jersey number, which he took as a personal insult.
After he kidnaps Marino, Ace gives out his suspicions about Finkle, which puts Einhorn on full alert. He pretends to be impressed by Ventura's "fine detective work". Then He forces herself on top of Ace and delivers a passionate kiss in an attempt to seduce him, probably feeling so threatened that he intended on giving him a quick blowjob to bring him completely under his control. Ace mentions he feels some discomfort by telling him "Your gun is digging into my hip." Einhorn responds with a sultry, "What's wrong Ace, want me to read you your rights?" as he thrusts his hips hard into Ace's groin. Ace refuses his advances by pushing him off of him.
In a deleted scene, it is revealed that, after this encounter, Einhorn, knowing that Ace is on to him, orders his henchmen, Vinnie and Roc, to find and kill Ace Ventura. Unfortunately, the two criminals Einhorn has blackmailed into helping him by pulling strings to keep them out of prison fail at their assassination attempt, being trampled by the raucous crowd to the Cannibal Corpse concert they had followed him to while Ace gets away.
With the help of his Yorkshire Terrier, Wiggles, Ace discovers that he is Ray Finkle in a sex-changed disguise. Finkle posed as Einhorn to take advantage of her position in the Miami PD to enact his revenge on the Dolphins when they got another chance in the Super Bowl. Ace then comically spends all night using a plunger to help himself throw up and cleansing himself by burning his clothes and showering over and over after realizing, much to his disgust, that he kissed a man and Einhorn's "gun" was actually her privates.
Exposure, Arrest and Prison[]
Later while chewing packs and packs of big red gum to remove the kiss and trying to rescue Marino and Snowflake, Ace stakes out Einhorn's condo and follows him to an abandoned yacht facility on the outskirts of town. He watches him disappear inside. Einhorn taunts and tortures Marino before perfectly kicking a football on a tee through a small hole in the tin roof in high heels. Marino has no idea what to think. He then passionately kisses Marino, suggesting that his hatred for Marino had morphed into something fetishistic over the years, and finally being in the ultimate position of power and dominance over the bound and now-helpless object of his obsession had actually turned into an erotic experience. He then disappears up a small set of stairs to get both of them refreshments. Ace knocks both of Einhorn's goons, Vinnie and Roc out and then slides down to rescue Dan Marino. While trying to rescue and untie Marino, Einhorn catches him and pulls a gun on him. He then takes out her cellular phone and calls Sgt. Aguado. Deciding to pin it all on Ace since he has now put a kink in his elaborate plan.
Einhorn holds them both at gunpoint as Ace is on his knees. Einhorn is clearly getting off over having his greatest enemy tied up, scared, and helpless, and his second greatest enemy on his knees, begging for his life. He and Marino begin to argue with each other. Einhorn fires his gun into the air and says "SHUT UP!. I think I'll kill the dolphin first!. Wouldn't want ya to miss that!". He walks over to Snowflake's tank in his sexy high heels. Ace and Dan watch the 4 TV’s set up in front of Dan and see the kicker of the Dolphins make a kick. Ace spouts off "Good to see someone who doesn't buckle under the pressure!". Einhorn visibly gets angry and cocks his gun. He walks over and aims it at Ace's head and sternly says; "What would you know about pressure?!". Ace calmly responds "Well I have kissed a man". It clicks in Einhorn’s head that Ace has it all figured out. Just then, the announcers bring up Ray Finkle’s missed kick. They show it on national television and insult him. It's more than Einhorn can take. He turns the gun quickly onto the 4 TV’s set up in a fit of rage, he screams "THE LACES WERE IN!! THEY WERE IN!!!" He shoots out the TV which allows Ace to knock the gun out of his hand and a struggle ensues between them. They shockingly duel it out as equals. Einhorn gets a low blow in on Ace by kicking him in the balls with his high heel. Then, Ace slams his head into a drainage pipe before putting him into a headlock. He proceeds to give him a noogie while screaming “YOU LIKE THAT!! YOU LIKE THAT!!”. All Einhorn is able to do is stand there and take it while screaming out. He then punches him in the face several times. Ace goes for his gun but accidentally kicks it across the docks. That allows Einhorn to get up and charge Ace but he quickly body slams him onto a stand of wooden pallets. Einhorn, thinking fast sticks his leg out to trip Ace into the tied up Dan Marino. Dan jokingly asks Ace “Having a little trouble with the lady Ace?”. Ace tries to respond to him in an exhausted manner but before he can, Einhorn shoves his hand into his mouth and pulls him into himself. He starts to land some good punches on him. His entire force is cheering him on. Aguado leading it by saying “Get ‘em Lois! Get ‘em!!!”. He then knees Ace in the face before picking up a large wooden fishing crate and slamming it on top of him. Seemingly defeating the pet detective.
Einhorn knows that he is in big trouble as he stumbles in front of his entire assembled police force. His blue blazer is half way coming off as he pulls his right hand out of it. Now screaming at his force “SHOOT HIM!!!”. They all ready their guns as they start to sight in on the stumbling pet detective. He flings his blazer off of his other hand in a rage and repeats his order to them “SHOOT HIM!!”. Then, to his horror he hears “HOLD YOUR FIRE!!”. He freezes in his tracks as he turns to look at what’s happening. Melissa Robinson is now holding Emilio hostage. He continues “DON’T SHOOT!!”. Melissa now speaks up “Put your guns down or this cop gets it!” She quickly cocks the gun and puts it under his chin “I mean it!!”. We see Aguado motion for all of his men to lower their weapons and stand down. Einhorn starts to panic and with good reason. He doesn’t have time to think and decides to pin it all on Ace. He screams out “He kidnapped Snowflake!!! He killed Roger Podactor and he was just about to kill Dan Marino and ME!!!” He flails his arms when he finishes screaming to really sell it. He starts breathing fast as Ace laughs at his blatant lies to try and save himself. Ace now goes on the offensive side. Speaking up “Ho Ho Ho!! Fiction can be fun, but I find the reference section, much more enlightening. For instance! If you were to look up, professional footballs… all time bonehead plays!” Einhorn turns fast and glares at Ace as he says this and rage comes across his feminine face. Ace continues “You might read about a Miami Dolphins kicker named Ray Finkle. Who missed a 26 yard field goal in the closing seconds of Super Bowl 17.” Ace takes a deep breath and then speaks again “What you wouldn’t read about is how Ray Finkle lost his mind! Was committed to a mental hospital only to escape and join the police force under the assumed identity of a missing hiker manipulating his way to the top in a diabolical scheme to get even with Dan Marino who he blamed for the entire thing!!” Through his entire speech Einhorn begins to have a small mental breakdown. He starts to jerk and twitch uncontrollably. The truth and his plan being exposed by Ace is more than he can take and understandably.
There is a brief moment of silence as Aguado finally yells out, clearly confused “What the hell are you talking about?!”. Ace points at the unraveling Lt. and screams “SHE’S NOT LOIS EINHORN!! She’s Ray Finkle!! She’s a man!!”. He shakes his head and jerks and twitches some more as he screams out pathetically in response to Ace, “He’s lying!! SHOOT HIM!!”. The time has now come for Ace to test his theory on Einhorn really being Finkle. First he walks behind Einhorn and yanks his hair to see if he’s just wearing a wig. His permed curly hair flies back and is clearly real. He cries out in pain as Ace tries to rip it off from all angles. He’s able to keep up the feminine voice through all of the tugs and rips at his clearly real hair. Einhorn turns his head and glares at Ace in a look of pure hatred as he laughs his first test off. Einhorn is a sitting duck now for Ace. He will have to pass all of his tests to truly be in a position to save himself. Ace is clearly not satisfied and continues on with his tests. Einhorn turns and glares at the still tied up Dan Marino as he feels his revenge slipping through his sexy fingers. All while Ace walks in front of him again and violently rips open his white blouse thinking that he will find a stuffed bra or even a wonder bra. To his horror, he finds neither but a beautiful bust. He laughs it off all while Einhorn grimaces and takes a deep breath to push up his bust, which are enclosed in a silk lace sexy grey bra up to his face even more just to show him how wrong he really is. Einhorn’s unease continues to rise as Ace turns back towards the force suggesting that they were “done over a weekend”. He looks down at them exposed in his bra and thinks to himself that they were indeed done over a weekend!
Ace is still not satisfied and pushes on even further. He now rounds back behind the Lt. He quickly realizes what he is going to do. In a last ditch effort to save himself, he crosses his legs quickly in his high heels to tuck his penis and testicles away. Then Ace sinks next to him as he violently rips off his blue skirt before smacking him on the butt with it before tossing it away over towards Dan. His body jolts and it’s all he can do to keep his balance. His jaw drops and he twitches. His world is literally crashing down around him. He feels his tucked penis and testicles busting out of the rear of his silk lace grey panties. He bobs and jerks several times in an attempt to pull his shaft and balls between his thighs. It only makes matters worse as he starts to get erect over all of this. His jaw drops and his eyes roll back into his head. Einhorn is now trapped and powerless. All the while, Ace is panicking and feels that he has now lost to Lt. Einhorn. He looks at the force and is just waiting for one of them to move in on him to arrest him for all of the crimes that he didn’t commit. Einhorn looks like a total smoke show. The body of a goddess. Everything you would want a “woman” to look like.
After another brief moment of silence. Dan Marino, who is behind the stripped Lt. and to his right speaks up for Ace to come to him. Ace looks nervously at the force while he excuses himself to go speak with Dan. Einhorn raises his hands up beside his silk bra and raises an eyebrow in worry and humiliation of his soon downfall. Dan shows Ace the piece of evidence that he has been looking for. Lt. Lois Einhorn, the most powerful “woman” in the city of Miami, Florida is now powerless and in the hands of Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. Ace does a quick double take as he looks at Einhorn’s tucked package both in shock and in joy. His whole demeanor changes and he looks confident yet again. He knows that this will undoubtedly expose the disgraced former NFL kicker.
Ace makes a calculated short humiliating speech directed at Einhorn. He walks back up next to him as he now bears a look of denial and defeat. With his jaw slightly dropped and his hands at his boobs. He’s now breathing hard and his perfectly applied make up is now starting to sweat off of his face. Ace really throws in some jabs at him by now using female pronouns instead of the male pronouns he used before at him in his exposure. He finally rounds behind him. The Lt. reaches up and starts to touch his boob inside of his silk lace bra. We see a large masculine 1984 AFC Championship Ring on his hand. It doesn’t fit correctly anymore. He closes his eyes and tries to mouth “I don’t know what he’s talking about”. Einhorn feels his freedom and facade about to slip away. Ace makes his iconic statement, “Then my friends, she is suffering from the worst case of hemorrhoids, I HAVE EVER SEEN!!”. He then reaches around the front of Einhorn while standing to his left. Knocking his hand out of the way while brushing his forearm against his bra. He violently spins him around on his black sexy high heels. “She” submits to him and puts up zero resistance against the spin. Ace has now revealed the horrific truth to Finkle’s entire assembled force that he himself called! The thin silk translucent fabric of the panties do the disgraced NFL kicker no favors as it shows every single vein and head of the very well endowed penis and testicles. He clinches both of his fists in the agony of defeat and humiliation on either side of the tucked penis. The missing triangular amber stone missing out of his ring. He’s now face to face with the man who ruined his life. They both lock eyes and are horrified. The living nightmare is not over for the sissy Finkle. His crossed legs almost collapse him to the wet dock floor, but Ace continues to hold him. Ace continuing to humiliate the criminal mastermind drops his hand down to the sissy’s silk panties and points at it screaming “THATS WHY ROGER PODACTOR IS DEAD!!! HE FOUND CAPTAIN WINKY!!”. Ace both exposing the truth of Podactor’s so called suicide as well as mocking Finkle’s position on the police force. The entire assembled police force are disgusted and begin to spit. Melissa’s eyes bug out at the sheer size of it, while Emilio scratches his tongue. Even Snowflake is also so disgusted that he splashes his snout in the tank water. A tied up Dan Marino spits from the incredibly hot and seamy make out session he had just minutes earlier with Ray Finkle. All the men are in pure shock in horror that they have been crushing, make out and receiving blow jobs for 7 years from a man!
Ace finally lets go of the humiliated Finkle and denounces the scene of his most horrific exposure as some sort of comedy routine. Saying “Goodnight everyone! You’ve been a wonderful audience, I’ll be here all week! Be sure to tip your waitress!!”. When Ace lets go of Finkle he quickly collapses to the dock floor in his sexy high heels. His ruined while blouse falling off of his back to reveal his silk bra straps holding his impressive implants in firm place. Finkle makes several horrific realizations as he collapses to the wet dock floor. He’s just been exposed by the laughing stock of the Miami Police Department, Ace Ventura. He would now never be a man again. His was going to spend the rest of his meaningful life in prison. Not only prison, but an all male maximum security prison where he would without a doubt be a submissive sissy with all of his high end plastic surgery done. We almost anticipate a member of Finkle’s force moving in to arrest him, but before that happens he pulls his ruined white blouse back onto his shoulders. He finds a shard of glass from the 4 TV’s that he had just shot out minutes earlier. With absolutely nothing to lose. He picks up the shard with his left hand and then switches it to his right hand as he turns to charge at Ace screaming “DIE AMIMAL BOY!!!”. He quickly realizes how hard it is to run in high heels on the dock floor. Ace quickly realizes this pathetic attempt on his life won’t end well for Finkle. He shakes his head and calmly says “QUICK DECISION!!”. Right as Finkle try’s to stab him he duck’s him and grabs his sexy childbearing hips and uses his momentum to flip him over his shoulder into Snowflakes tank. He screams out pathetically and in bewilderment as he’s humiliated even more. His tucked away penis also violently shifted forward during the flip into the front of his silk lace panties.
Melissa, Emilio and the rest of the police force are left to do with nothing do but laugh at their exposed Lt.’s attempt on Ace’s life. Finkle swims his way back to the surface and grabs onto the edge of the dock. His make up and hair are now ruined and he looks much more like a man that ever before. His spits the water out onto the docks just like he had spat all the other officers "donut frost" out over the years. Ace rounds him as he breathes hard, completely defeated. He then steps onto his hand as you hear Finkle’s knuckles crack. He groans out in pain as Ace bends over and easily pulls off the incriminating ring off of the former kickers finger while he grimaces. Finkle see’s his ring gone and quickly realizes that it’s the final nail in his coffin. The evidence that would tie him to all of his crimes. Ace shockingly kicks dirt into Finkle’s face several times to continue his humiliation as he then says what everyone else was already thinking “LOOHHSEEER!!!”. Ace shows of the championship ring with the missing stone.
Dan Marino is quickly untied and gets a ride with Ace so that he can be returned to the game for the second half of the Super Bowl. Finkle remained in the tank for another minute before being pulled out and arrested by Emilio. His high heels had fallen off and exposed his large but sexy feet painted dolphin orange that he had gotten done the day before at the nail salon. Emilio then reads Ray Finkle his rights and lists the biggest list of crimes he had ever arrested someone for.

Trivia[]
- The picture of Ray Finkle before the sex change was really Sean Young with a wig and a fake mustache. However, they based Finkle's appearance on Uwe von Schamann, whom was supposed to play Finkle. Many fans and critics were convinced it was a male in the photo when the film was first released.
- If looked at closely in the Blu Ray edition with a much clearer presentation, in the video clip of "the Kick Heard Around The World" the laces appear to be in just as Finkle said, implying that Dan Marino was actually at fault and wouldn't admit to his error.
- Had Marino admitted this error, Finkle would never been kicked off the team.
- The laces are supposed to be out.
- During the scene where all of the cops started spitting after Finkle's exposure, the only female and lesbian on the force also started spitting.
- Sean Young felt it necessary to play the character of Finkle/Einhorn with a straight and dramatic performance, which both Jim Carrey and Director Tom Shadyac agreed with. This allowed her performance to mesh perfectly Carrey’s over the top comedic style and keep the story grounded.
