A Very Sordid Wedding Page #4
[Hardy] Oh, and I don't
see no wedding ring.
No. No more. No ring.
divorce 17 years ago. Single!
See, my husband had an affair
on me with my best friend's
70-year-old mother, and
our friendship survived
but the marriage did not.
My friend LaVonda, oh,
that's Peggy's daughter,
Peggy is the old adulteratin' dead woman,
is settin' in that room across from you
with Evelyn Crawley's Aunt Little Neecy.
crazy as a sack full of a**holes,
bless her heart.
And I'm here visitin' my mama,
or a severe case of ptomaine.
I mean, we're prayin' that it's ptomaine,
but she is so damn mean
sometimes I just wish she would die.
Oh, shoot, I meant to just think that.
My husband, G.W., well my ex-husband now,
17 years, no ring, single,
he is a Vietnam vet
and he has two wooden legs.
Well, technically they're fiberglass.
And one day I got real mad,
and I took one of them legs,
and I bashed in all the
windows on his pickup truck
while he was takin' a bath.
them stubs, years ago.
Then, I set them legs on fire
in the bed of his pickup truck,
beings as I was so upset
after Peggy's funeral,
you know about the affair, not her death.
But first, I soaked them legs in gasoline,
'cause I think that sh*t through,
tossed in a match, boom!
Oh, it's hard to make a
marriage work after that.
Remind me never to piss you off.
[laughing] Okay.
I, uh, I don't mean to make it worse.
[laughing] What... what
happened to your leg?
Well, I crushed it workin' on an oil rig.
Uh, my crutches.
Oh, right, sorry.
Okay, here you go.
- Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.
Now, hey, will you get behind me,
put both your hands
around my waist and give me a shove up?
Okay.
Don't look at my ass.
[Noleta] Okay.
[Hardy grunting] There we go.
Oh, yay, it worked.
bring me some sweats but,
- are you lookin' at my ass?
- No!
Well, maybe just a little.
Good.
[Noleta laughing]
[Noleta] Oh, Lord!
"Come, Lord Jesus.
"The grace of the Lord Jesus
be with all. Amen."
Hm.
Well, it's not the best
endin', if you ask me.
[telephone ringing]
[Vera] Corner Stop, where
Jesus is alive and well
and everything is convenient. This is Vera.
How may I help you?
Hello, Vera, well, I just now finished
readin' the entire Bible.
I've been dealin' with
Brother Boy this morning, ooh!
More troubles than Christ on the cross.
Well, bless his heart.
I've been praying for
Jesus to turn him straight.
Well, Vera, I think that
perhaps that is a wasted prayer.
If you have faith the
size of a mustard seed,
you can say to a mulberry
tree, "Be uprooted
and be planted in the sea."
That's in Luke.
Hey, Leticia, you're
mixin' up the sweet spicy
chili Doritos with the spicy nachos again.
Yes, Vera! B*tch... [speaking Spanish]
[Sissy] "Be ye kind, one to
another." Ephesians 4:32.
Mm, uh-huh, that's one of my favorites.
Why do you think anybody
would want to uproot
a mulberry tree and plant it in the sea?
How would they pick their mulberries?
Mm, there are some things in the Bible
that just do not make
a lick of sense to me.
Well, I live by the Bible, Sissy.
I don't need it to make sense.
Now I'm gonna need you on my
anti-equality calling committee.
and we gotta get the final word out.
They're comin' for our religious freedoms,
and good Christians are bein' persecuted.
By who?
Obama, Hillary Clinton,
five liberal judges,
and Miley Cyrus.
[Latrelle] Sissy!
Sissy!
Oh, Lord, Vera, I gotta go. It's Latrelle.
Sissy!
Sissy!
Well, you're just never gonna believe
what the church is doing, you just won't.
Vera told me...
They're havin' an anti-equality revival.
That's what they're callin'
it. It starts tomorrow.
I just met the new
preacher, Jimmy Ray Brewton.
He's handsome.
Very argumentative.
Well, you'd know all about that.
That's not always a bad thing.
Oh, wait a minute. I just hung up from Ty.
He and Kyle may be movin' to Dallas.
Kyle's got a big designer
Bob Williams, furniture
store, very upscale.
High end. Gorgeous.
Maybe you can get some free furniture.
Oh, the bigger news.
The boys are havin' twins.
Oh, twins.
I gotta tinkle.
What's wrong with my furniture?
[door closing]
LaVonda.
LaVonda.
This is Hardy. Hardy, this is LaVonda.
Hardy's new in town.
And who are you, the welcome wagon?
Are you two smokin' in the hospital?
Oh, yeah, we were smokin'.
[Noleta] I gotta go, I'm
gonna be late for work.
We're not done here, okay?
Okay, ow! [laughing]
Why don't anything good like
this ever happen to my life?
Did you see the size of his feet?
I sure did, come on.
So they both do their business
in a cup instead of a sock,
and it goes to some
science lab where it then
fertilizes some stray woman's eggs
that they choose from a book of donors.
Then the fertilized eggs
are put into the surrogate's
uterus, that will then carry the babies.
[laughing] Was very scientific.
Ew, Lordy, Lordy, the things
they can do these days.
They use this agency
called Growing Generations,
that did every thing,
And that oldest Winkler girl just had her
fourth baby out of wedlock.
They could have just slipped her a 20 and
had a little white trash baby.
No, thank you.
I do not want a Winkler grandchild.
No tellin' what's
swimmin' in that gene pool.
Besides, they wanted their own.
And with today's technology, each one
can have their very own biological child.
Oh, one white one,
and one cute little mulatto.
Ew, I hope the mulatto one is a girl.
Halle Berry is so beautiful.
Sissy that word, "mulatto,"
it's no longer politically correct.
"Mixed" is preferred.
Mixed, huh?
Well, if you say so.
Mulatto sure has a prettier ring to it.
Lord, I cannot keep up.
Is African-American still right?
I believe so, only there are some
who don't care for that either.
Oh, I cannot wait to tell
mid-life crises Wilson
that he's gonna be a grandpa.
I am a Christian, Lord
But I'm a woman too
Finish Tammy, and then
I gotta get into Loretta.
Velcro, girl.
How to solve this sh*t.
[door closing]
Hello.
We're not open yet.
- You worthless pathetic freak.
- Aah!
You can kiss your precious Tammy goodbye.
'Cause it ain't a workin'.
No! Go away, Dr. Eve! [screaming]
[Billy Joe] Hello.
- No!
- You okay?
Oh, forgive my appearance.
I'm working on a transition
from Tammy into Loretta.
It's part of a skit I come up with.
For the big show, it's
Loretta, Tammy, Dolly,
How about you be a good little girl
and pour me a strong drink.
We ain't open yet.
Okay.
Well, hurry up, Roger's gonna kill me.
I'm gonna be late for work.
Little to the right, Wardell.
And those beautiful
princes, William and Harry,
were left motherless.
And I will never forgive
Camilla Parker Bowles.
Oh, who gives a sh*t, Juanita?
