Alyce! The scandal! Consider us.

(OK. I'll come inside.)

You know, you only go

on a honeymoon once.

Wouldn't you like Paris for

a few days, then Venice,

then home to your own love nest? Oh,

George, I didn't think you cared.

Goodbye, Reggie. Wait a minute,

you can't leave Reggie like this.

Don't be silly! We can't take him

on our honeymoon. Goodbye!

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Ha! Goodb...

My boy, we win. We do? You'll marry

Alyce. I am? Tonight. You mean it?

Come on, you Tottley Wildcats.

Give!
