Father of the Bride Page #10

---

Everything was running smoothly,

except for one small detail.

- Annie's very favorite uncle.

This is Ben Banks.

- I still hadn't kissed the bride.

- Congratulations.

- Where's Annie?

- Annie. She's having her picture taken.

- Hi, Ben.

- How are you, George?

Yes. Ben's been

back in Connecticut.

Okay, kids. Look at each other.

Very nice. Now, turn towards me, please.

I'm sorry, sir. All traffic

has to go through the front door.

Doris! It's so good to see you!

How are you?

- Oh, could I have one of those?

- Sorry. Just sold my last one.

Hey, a button. It's navy.

This must be yours.

We're moving into the tent now.

Dinner is served.

This way to the tent, please.

- Uh, let's--

I think we have to go back in--

- Ann-- Annie!

As well, l--

It was unbelievable.

I had never seen a line form so fast.

It was as if they knew

what the food was costing me.

Finally,

I made it into the tent.

I was ready to relax and taste

the food I'd been hearing about...

for the past five months, when--

Dad! Dad! There's some cops out front,

and they want to talk to you!

- Cops?

- I've heard. We'll handle dis togather.

I got George. Ve're on our vay.

Come on, George.

Pick it up. Pick it up.

One-Adam-seventy, roger.

Standby.

Let me handle this, George.

Give me your wallet.

Stop!

- Adam-30, disregard.

- What is this?

- See, Cameron? I told ya.

- Wow!

Just try to smile. That's all.

- This your house?

- Me?

Yeah, you. In the blue tux.

- Yes. Yes, it is.

- Do you have a permit for parking

200 cars in this street?

Vell, the-- the problem is, Officer,

dat we are supposed to haf

four parking attandants.

- Uh, but two got de flu.

- Well, you better get...

all these cars off this street

before the fire marshall gets here.

Fine, fine. Any sugjoostions

what we do with them?

I don't care what you do with them.

Just have them off this street

within the next 30 minutes.

Vill do, sir. Ve'll take care of it.

You're not to worry, okay?

- Franck? Where are you? The cake--

- Uh, uh, George. They need me inside.

Uh, the big moment.

The keck is being wheeled out!

- I-- I-- I'll handle this.

- I'm on my vay!

Where're we gonna get

a couple extra drivers?

Hey, baby, I'm your man

Turn around, you'll see

I may not stand tall

and I don't talk neat

But I'm gonna

win your love for me

Yes!

Watch out, baby, here comes your man

Lookin' cool to me

Whoa!

By the way,

great wedding, Mr Banks.

And don't worry!

I didn't eat anything!

- That makes two of us.

- I got sunshine

On a cloudy day

- Where is he?

- I don't know.

When it's cold outside

I've got the month of May

I guess you'll say

What can make me feel this way

- It's my girl

- My girl, my girl

I will feel aglow

Just thinkin' of you

And the way you look

Tonight

- I know.

- Oh, but you're lovely

With your smile so warm

And your cheeks so soft

There is nothing for me

But to love you

Just the way you look

Tonight

Just the way you look

- Tonight

- Well, I had to admit...

the wedding appeared to be

a complete success.

Now, all I needed to make me happy

was a dance with the bride.

- It's time.

- Ladies and gentlemen...

in just a few moments,

Mrs Annie Banks-MacKenzie will be

tossing her bouquet in the foyer.

- And then she's off to Hawaii.

- Let's go in there. Oh, sorry.

- Excuse me. Thank you.

- This I was not going to miss.

- Comin' through.

- The mob was headed

through the living room...

- so I decided to take a shortcut.

- Sorry.

- Excuse me. Thank you.

- Great wedding, George!

- Had a lovely time.

- Thanks. Excuse me.

- Great party, George.

Hurry up!

Whoa! Ay-yi-yi-yi!

Whoo!

- Where's my dad?

- I-- I-- I don't know.

- I haven't seen him.

- Watch it. Behind you.

Excuse me.

- Should I throw it?

- Yeah! Yes!

He missed it.

- Bye-bye!

- Let us through. Let us--

Bye!

Goodbye, Charlie!

Bye, Bryan!

- Bye!

- Bye!

- Thanks.

- Bye!

- Have fun!

She was gone.

My Annie was gone...

and I was too late

to say goodbye.

When the last guest was gone...

and the last glass of champagne

had been drunk...

we surveyed the damage.

It's funny how empty a house

can suddenly get, isn't it?

Yeah. I'm sorry you didn't get a chance

to say goodbye to her, George.

Oh, that's all right.

But, you know, I think she's going

to be really happy.

Oh, yeah. Sure.

- Hello?

- Dad!

Hi! Where are you?

At the airport.

Our plane's about to take off...

but I couldn't leave

without saying goodbye.

Thank Mom for everything, okay?

And Dad...

I love you.

I love you very much.

I love you too, sweetheart.

Thanks for calling.

And have a great honeymoon.

Thanks. I will. Bye.

Someday

When I'm awfully low

- When the world is cold

- That was Annie.

- Oh.

- I will feel aglow

Just thinkin' of you

And the way you look

Tonight

Oh, but you're lovely

With your smile so warm

And your cheeks so soft

There is nothin' for me

But to love you

Just the way you look

Tonight
