Love, Wedding, Marriage Page #9

Synopsis: Handsome, romantic, sexy gentile Charlie enjoys his honeymoon with liberal-Jewish marriage counselor Ava. It's cut short when her parents Bradley and Betty, who always seemed the perfect couple, suddenly border on divorce over an old affair and poorly matched expectations. Worse, in turn they invite themselves to move in and drive the newly-weds crazy. Ethics prevent Ava from taking them on as clients and the colleagues she refers to prove hopelessly inept. Meanwhile Charlie's impulsive buddy Gerber, the eternal bachelor party animal, has married Polish green-card-chaser Kasia.

Rabbi Stevens' son.

And this is my daughter Shelby.

- Hi, Jeremiah,

Rabbi Stevens' son.

- Nice to meet you.

- Have a seat.

- Thank you.

- I think you may find you have

quite a few things in common.

- So you're Jewish.

Wait a minute.

My dad told me about you.

Aren't you

the wandering degenerate?

- And aren't you

the sponging sister?

- It's "slutty sponging sister,"

if you don't mind.

- No, actually,

I don't mind at all.

- [Laughing]

[Spirited piano music]

- I'm so sorry, Charlie.

- Before you start apologizing,

I have some things to say.

Okay?

About eight weeks ago,

you promised to love me

in sickness, in health,

and all that other stuff.

Remember?

Well, I have some amendments

to those vows.

Do you promise to fall in love

with me every day,

even when we fight?

- Yes.

- Will you swear

to have sex with me

at least twice a week,

sometimes twice a day

when the mood strikes?

- Oh, yes.

- And finally,

do you accept the fact

that I'll probably never, ever

in the next 50 years

remember to put a new

toilet roll on the dispenser?

- [Laughing]

I do.

- Let's go back.

Let's show these people

that we know how to make

a marriage work.

- No.

- No?

- A marriage isn't official

until it's been consummated.

- I knew there was a reason

why I married you.

[baby cooing]

Who's the most beautiful baby

in the whole wide world?

- Look at Mommy.

[Brassy jazz music]

- # How lucky can one guy be #

# I kissed her

and she kissed me #

# Like the fella once said #

# "Ain't that a kick

in the head" #

- Oh, and just so you know...

Ah!

- I'm a big boy.

Didn't use to be.

- Focus.

And action.

[Laughter]

- # My life

is gonna be beautiful #

# I've sunshine enough

to spread #

# It's just like

the fella said #

- Are you wearing a yarmulke?

- Yeah, you like it?

I had to dig around

in the basement to find it.

I haven't worn one

since I was a kid.

- Nice.

Very... Jewish.

- Well, that's the look

I was going for.

- Physical contact

make you uncomfortable?

- No, I just don't hug

strangers,

most particularly,

men I don't know.

- He's more comfortable

sleeping with women

he's just met.

- It's "slutty sponging sister,"

if you don't mind.

- No, actually,

I don't mind at all.

- [Laughs]

Sorry.

- All right, cut.

- Did we get it?

- What the hell?

Oop.

- # If this is just

the beginning #

# My life

is gonna be beautiful #

# She's telling me

we'll be wed #

# She's picked out

a king-size bed #

# I couldn't feel any better #

# Or I'd be sick #

# Tell me quick #

# Oh, ain't love a kick #

# Tell me quick #

# Ain't love a kick #

# In the head #

[music stops]

[Gentle violin picking]

[lively orchestral music]
