I met a dolphin down there.

And I swear to God,

that dolphin looked

not at me,

but into my soul.

Into my goddamn soul, Annie.

And he said,

"I'm saving you, Megan."

Not with his mouth,

but he said it,

I'm assuming, telepathically

We had a connection

that I don't even

know if I can... Jesus.

Hey, shut my mouth.

Look at... Unbelievable.

You must be Annie's fella.

I'm Megan.

It's a pleasure.

He's not...

I'm not... He's not...

I'm not with him.

Sorry.

All right.

I'm glad he's single,

because I'm going to

climb that like a tree.

Okay. You have

to meet Helen.

There she is. Helen.

Come here!

Helen, this is Annie.

Hi!

Ohh!

There she is.

Maid of honor.

So lovely to meet

Lillian's childhood friend.

You are so pretty.

You are so cute!

You are so sweet.

Helen is married

to Dougie's boss,

Mr. Harris. Perry.

Perry. And they

are so close now,

they are literally

joined at the hip.

Which is good,

because so are we.

I know.

I'm so glad you guys

are finally meeting.

I know. Me, too.

I know. it's lovely.

Well, excuse me,

I better go check on

the hors d'oeuvres.

But it was great

to finally meet you.

It's a great party.

- Enjoy.

- Bye.

- Bye.

- Bye.

She's great, isn't she?

She's awesome.

And I really

look forward to having

Doug as part of our family.

So much so

that you two should

get married right now

and save me

a shitload of money.

Dad.

Everybody always

laughs at that,

but I'm not joking.

I'm not joking.

Anyway, I want

to thank all of you

for coming.

And here's to Doug and

my baby girl, Lillian.

Cheers!

Cheers!

- I love you, Dad.

- Enough of me.

Let's get the maid

of honor up here.

All right.

Annie?

Umm. Hi.

I'm Annie Walker.

Yay, Annie!

I'm not going to go

on with a big speech,

so I'll just say this.

I'm so happy to be

a part of this celebration.

And you two

deserve each other,

as well as

a lifetime of happiness.

- Thank you.

- Cheers.

- Love you guys.

- Cheers.

Thanks, Annie.

Cheers.

Thank you, Annie.

That was so sweet.

Thank you.

Lil, remember that trip

we took to

Miami with the boys?

And they were

working the entire weekend,

and we just sat

and drank wine

and ate peanut brittle.

And I shared things with you

that I've never

shared with anyone.

And you made me realize

how I can trust people again.

So let me just say,

Lillian,

you are my best friend.

And I'm

so proud of you.

Sorry. And, Dougly...

I'm sorry, inside joke.

You better not

keep my Lil on a leash

because I still

need my drunken

Saturday nights

at Rockin' Sushi, okay?

Everybody raise your glasses

to the couple of the decade,

Doug and Lillian.

Have a great night.

Dessert wine is out.

Dessert wine, yummy.

Excuse me.

Umm...

I just wanted to

say really quick that

you are so special

to me, because...

Well, one of the reasons is

because I've known you

my whole entire life.

And you've really

helped shape who I am.

I just want to thank you

for carefully selecting me

as your maid of honor.

I know you had

some other choices,

but you are like my sister,

and I love you.

Well, that concludes

the speeches for the night.

Thank you.

One last thing.

It's rare to meet

someone as an adult

who you really connect with,

and that's you, Lil.

I went to Thailand recently

with my husband, Perry,

and there is

a beautiful saying

that I learned there.

It means,

"You are a part of me,

"a part that I could

never live without,

"and I hope and I pray

that I never have to."

And that's it for tonight.

Thank you for coming.

Really quick,

Thank you all for coming.

I just wanted to

say really quick...

Dessert wine is out.

Consuelo?

Really quick.

Speaking of Consuelo,

Lillian and I took

Spanish together in school.

And so, I would just

like to say to you,

and to everyone here...

Thank you.

Thank you.

I feel so close to you

and can trust you.

You are my

angel and soul mate.

And I feel I can

communicate with you

with simply a look.

Thank you for coming.

Here, I'll take that.

I'll take that.

Yep, I got it.

Lillian...

Keep smiling, keep shining

Knowing you can

always count on me

For sure

That's what friends are for

In good times and bad times

I'll be on your

side forever more

That's what friends are for

That's what

friends are for

Man,

engagement parties rule.

It made me feel awesome,

like I can go out

and catch another

dude to marry.

So, what's up with her,

anyway? With Helen?

What?

I'm just like...

I don't know.

She's in your wedding

and you've only

known her eight months,

though, right?

Come on.

Get it out,

get it all out.

I'm just...

Like, the whole gown,

and the...thing.

It's just weird, right?

You know what?

She's actually

really cool, Annie.

She's really...

She's a good one.

I'm telling you.

Well, I'm sure if you

like her, I will like her.

You have to just

get to know her.

Yeah.

Which I think

you really should.

And... Will you

just do me a favor?

Would you just hang

out with her once,

just the two of you.

All right?

As a favor to me.

Okay, I will.

I love you, Annie Lou.

I love you, too.

Bye.

Bye.

Oh. Hi, I'm Helen.

You live in Milwaukee?

I'm sorry.

Have you met Lillian?

She's my best friend.

Yeah, I know.

We've only known each other

for five minutes.

Oh! Oh!

on! Cute.

No. No. Come on.

See? Okay?

I'm not drunk. I told you.

So, you are just

a terrible sober driver?

Ha ha. Very funny.

Can I stop walking now?

You can stop walking

when I tell you

to stop walking.

Hey, look.

If I was drunk,

would I be able to do this?

Stop it. Stop it.

Please, stop.

Please, stop.

I believe you.

You are not drunk.

But I'm still gonna

have to give you a ticket.

What? why?

It's a funny thing

about brake lights.

You have to have them.

I knew it.

God, those have

been out for a year.

I'm so stupid.

Look, please.

Please, I promise

I will get them fixed.

This week, I promise.

Please. Do you have

to give me a ticket?

Yes. License

and registration,

please.

Thanks.

Look at that,

you live on

Wynnewood Drive.

Yep.

We are neighbors.

I just live

over on Ashley.

Ahh.

I used to work on Ashley.

You did? Where?

I had a bakery

on the main part

of the street there.

Oh. Cake Baby.

You are Cake Baby!

Yeah!

Yeah, you had your sign.

It was your face.

Yeah!

That was you?

That was me.

You made good cakes.

Thanks.

You used to make these

little pastry things,

and you'd put

something in them,

like a cream or a custard...

Cream puffs.

Cream puffs,

that's what you call them.

Delicious.

I used to get served

by this tall, broad guy,

with, like, a wormy face.

Yeah, that was my boyfriend.

Sorry.

No, no. It was...

He was my boyfriend,

and then he left me

when the business

went under. So, anyway...

You're kidding?

What a dick.

I'm glad

I never tipped him.

You know what?

Let's forget about this.

Let's just

forget this one.

Really?

Under one condition.
