One big limitation of Poser is that you CAN'T change parenting in the middle of an animation. There are two solutions: split the frames, or play with scale. In this case I think splitting the frames would be best. Start the motion with the bottle on the ground, unparented. Run up to the point where Mike has his hand fully grasping the bottle. Make this the last frame by setting the number of frames equal to this frame. Memorize everything. Save the PZ3. Go back to frame 1. Restore everything. Cut the frame count down to 1. Parent the bottle to the hand. Then add more frames and continue the motion. Save this as a new PZ3 name.
