03x20 - Wedded Miss

Post by bunniefuu »

- Happy wedding day, girl!
- Thanks.

I've dreamt about this
day my whole life,

and I can't wait to spend it
getting ready with all of you.

I don't have any siblings due
to my mom's corn silo accident,

but I've got you.
Thanks for being here for me.

- Here's something old.
- Oh.

I made them from petrified owl pellets.

- Thank you.
- Here's something new.

You've had the same tube of Carmex
since I met you five years ago.

It's unsettling.

Thanks.

[SNIFFS]

Uh, I wasn't aware there'd
be gifts since I was not

on the email chain because
I'm not a bridesmaid,

but, uh...

Here, something borrowed.

It's Tiffany's, hence the borrowed.

I will need that back.

- And here's something blue.
- Oh.

[LAUGHS]

Is... this lubricant?

- Yeah.
- But it's not blue.

It's for something blue.

Hot Dad's balls.

[RAPHAEL LAKE'S "TEACH YA"]

Wow.

Look at these.

I was still feeling sad
about not being chosen

as a bridesmaid, but seeing your dresses

makes me feel much better.

- Get out of my way.
- Look who's here.

[ALL SCREAMING]

Meemaw, you made it!

[LAUGHS]

Love is patient.

Love is kind.

No, Mom. No, not yet.

- Love is patient.
- No, the wedding's not

- for a few hours, Mom.
- Love is kind.

It's a tradition that my
mother reads from Corinthians

at family weddings.

This might be her last wedding,

so it's so special that
she's here to do the reading.

Meemaw, I wanna introduce you
to the most important woman

in my entire life, Chelsea Snap,

and my other friends too.

Chelsea, would you mind watching Meemaw

while we get ready?

[QUIRKY MUSIC]

I'm so sorry, but I can't.

I'm allergic to whatever it is that

makes old people smell the way they do.

I'd love to help, but as the attendant,

I'll be too busy organizing
the towlettes for the bathroom.

♪ ♪

- Can you?
- Okay, Meemaw.

Looks like it's you and me today.

[ALL LAUGH]

Just let me know
whatever it is you need.

All right.

- Mom.
- Yes?

Why don't you come with
me so I can show you

the finishing touches
they put on my dress?

So where is Cecelia?
Did she go pick up the rings?

Yes, but since it's the last day

of teacher contract negotiations,

she stopped by the protest.

Salary cuts.
We won't take it, so don't ask.

ALL: We won't take it, so don't ask.

We won't take it up the ass!

ALL: We won't take it up the ass!

No, no, no, no! That's not what I said!

I did not say that!

I can't believe Cecelia's
late as a bridesmaid.

It's like,
have some respect for your job.

Speaking of, listen up, bridesmaids.

Because I'm the most snatched
maid of honor ever...

hashtag fact not fiction...
I booked an esthetician

- to pamper us.
- Wow, thanks, Chelsea.

I said bridesmaids.

Who wants to go first?

Okay, fine, I'll go. [LAUGHS]

Yay, yay, yay, yay, yay!

She's such a beast.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Where's Meemaw?

[ROCK MUSIC]

- Hey, there he is.
- Hey.

[LAUGHS] The big guy himself.

Pastor Ted.

[CHUCKLES]

Okay, well, I'm... I'm gonna
start getting ready.

Nope.

They're exterminating in there.
It's very unsafe.

But don't worry, you can use
my office to get dressed.

Oh, that's okay,
I can just use the bathroom.

Nope, the stalls in there are too small.

Too hard to get legs into pants.

It's gonna need to be my office.

Come with me. Come on.
Come on, this way. This way.

[BOTH SHOUT]

Oh, sorry, I wasn't clear.

I need to use this room
as well to change so...

[ROCK MUSIC]

Meemaw?

She can barely walk.
How far could she have gotten?

Two summers ago, I saw
June Squip in a Zumba class.

Old women can be deceptively spry.

Meemaw? Oh, God.

We can't be gone for much longer.

Mary Louise is gonna wonder why
we're not getting ready with her.

[GASPS]

[SNEAKY MUSIC]

Okay, Caroline, we get it. You're white.

- You love tennis.
- No, Deb.

It's from Meemaw's walker.
Clearly I'm better at tracking.

You go cover while I hunt
the old girl down.

[SNIFFS]

♪ ♪

She's close.

I... I've been trying to talk
her into more curls, you know?

Hey, hey, look at you two in your robes.

There you are!

Where are the other girls?

Caroline's making sure
that the altar is clean

for the ceremony. You know how she is.

Uh, Cecelia's polishing the rings,

and Chelsea's with an esthetician.

- That one's actually true.
- Where's Meemaw?

She's in the bathroom.

I think she drank too many Ensures.

I hope she's okay.

She's gotta do the reading later.

Oh, no, stay here. She's fine.

It's just a normal poop, not diarrhea.

How do you know?

I was in there for the beginning of it.

And it, uh, was just
your average plopping,

- not that running water noise.
- Debra.

[ROCK MUSIC]

They aren't budging
on any of our demands.

Unbelievable.

Fascists.

Step back, please.

Excuse me, officer.
We're just trying to have a peaceful...

- Get down!
- No!

Jesus. You got that from a facial?

Yes! [CRYING]

And a chemical peel, cupping,

lipid cheek injections,
and some very basic Botox,

but it shouldn't look like this!

I can't walk down the aisle like this.

Cancel the wedding!

It's not your wedding to cancel.

Now get it together.

Mary Louise is waiting for us!

Hey, I can hear you
all the way down the hall.

We've got a problem.

Cecelia is in jail.

- [CRYING]
- Holy f*ck, what is that thing?

- It's Chelsea.
- [CRYING]

Chelsea, I'm sorry I called you a thing.

It just took me a few seconds
to recognize you as a human.

Leave me alone! [CRYING]

Great, Chelsea won't come out,

Cecelia's locked up with the rings,

and Meemaw's gone AWOL.
Mary Louise is gonna freak.

No, she's not because
she's not gonna find out.

How? This day is screwed.

Listen to me. I have been
a maid of honor times,

and something always
goes awry on the big day.

You keep looking for Meemaw.

I'll call Kyle to see
if he can talk Chelsea out.

What about Cecelia, hmm?
Her bail's $ , .

I don't have that kind of cash,
and I know you don't.

Rude.

Okay, I'll work on getting the money.

Just find Meemaw. She has a walker, Deb.

It's honestly embarrassing
we haven't found her yet.

You know, I don't understand
why we have to have

this conversation in our underwear.

Marriage is a really big decision,

and I feel like there's some
kind of internal struggle

- that you're dealing with.
- No.

Yeah, yeah, just an unstoppable desire.

It's undulating beneath your skin.

Oh, this is where the men are changing.

You fellas have the right idea.

Let's get out of these monkey suits

They have all kinds of little,
like, dollhouse furniture.

The stuff is very exciting.

Hi, ladies.

Finally, one of you is back.

That altar must have been filthy.

Caroline, what's wrong?

Nothing.

Okay, I have been.

I just keep thinking about how
beautiful this all is, you know,

at a Forever ,

making a contribution today

to help Chelsea pay

Five bucks? You cheapskate.

She needs a new face.

Looks like a pizza without cheese.

someday we'd end up together,

We thought it would be a nice surprise.

So don't you dare come in here.

I'm glad you explained.
