Well, mi casa, su casa.|Make yourself at home.
- Thank you. Bye, Viola.|- Cheers.
- Goodbye.|- I like her a lot. Hi.
- Hey!|- Hi!
- You guys have a nice little chit-chat? - Oh|my God. She came over
and started talking to us.|What did you want us to do?
- Ignore her?|- Yes!
So then getting her autograph|would be completely out of the question?
- Was that yes? 'Cause... okay.|- No.
So there I was sitting next|to the Sultan of Brunei
with Maureen Dowd,|Carrie Fisher and Snoop Dogg.
You know the story, Kevin.
I said to Snoop, "Snoop,|I think your lyrics
are sometimes a little|sexist and unfair to women."
And the Sultan of Brunei said,|"Really? I have 114 wives
and they're all|huge fans of the Dogg!"
Honey, would you see|who's at the door?
Sure.
These are delicious, Viola.
Oh, Kit,|I'm glad you like it.
Mm, yeah.
Look who's here.|It's Dr. Chamberlain.
Oh my God!|It's Dr. Chamberlain.
- Hi! Everybody, it's Dr. Chamberlain!|- Hi. Good evening.
- Thanks so much for inviting me.|- Oh, sh*t!
That's Dr. Chamberlain.|He's Viola's doctor.
Oh, we're going to need|another place setting.
Oh, please,|let me get that.
- There's a chair in the living room.|- Sure.
Scootch down, you guys.|Come on, make room.
You guys move down.
Cheers. Thank you.
Who's he?
It's Viola's therapist.|Move down, you guys!
- Excuse me.|- No problem.
- Here's you chair, Doctor.|- Here. Have mine, too.
Hello.
Hi.
- Hi.|- Hi.
I'll get it.
So you just got here?
- Are you expecting anyone else?|- Huh-uh.
- Hello, everybody!|- Fiona!
I'm so glad to see you.
I just couldn't resist|bringing the happy couple
a little gift.
That's great. I will|get you a place setting.
She's bringing a gift?|I think she is the gift.
What the hell|is she doing here?
- How about some more wine, everyone?|- Yeah!
How much longer do we have to stay?|I have midterms tomorrow.
Shh.
- Oh, I get it.|- No, baby, not now, okay?
It's not the time.
So, Dr. Chamberlain,
tell us about med school.|Where did you do your residency?
Uh, now that's...|that's a long story.
I don't think your guests|want to hear that.
No, we really|want to know.
I think we need|some more gravy.
What is going on?
What are you doing?
I'm behaving.
Viola, no!
You can't!|Charlie's allergic to nuts!
Give it to me!
Viola, you're crazy.
Oh, get up.
Put the gravy down|or I'm telling Kevin.
Yeah!
What's the big deal?|So her face swells up...
swells up a little.|So what?
Swells up a little? Her face'll|blow up like a Macy's Day balloon.
Well, good. It'll match|the other body parts!
Viola, think about|what you're doing.
Come on, the girl's|getting married tomorrow!
Ruby, when did you|lose your edge?
Right after|you lost your mind.
Come on.
All right. Okay.|No nuts.
Come on.
Viola, I think you|dislocated my vagina.
- Where's the...|- Where's the what?
Gravy? More gravy?
Anyone for more gravy?
Oh, I am not|doing time for you!
- Where's the back door?|- Stay cool, Ruby!
Stay cool! This is no time|to lose your nerve.
If I get arrested|I'm gonna sing like a canary.
Maybe she won't|take any gravy.
- That's a lot of gravy.|- Mmm!
This gravy's delicious!
You... you gotta go|stop her!
- Go on, stop her. Go stop her.|- You go, you go, you go.
Why me?|You're the culprit? You go!
- You're my assistant.|- What am I supposed to do?
Go out there and stick my finger|down her throat?
Yeah.
Baby, are you okay?
Kevin, my tongue|feels weird.
I think|something's wrong!
Charlie, are you okay?
- What are we gonna do now?|- Hide the damn nuts!
- Are you all right?|- Get her some water.
Flat or sparkling?
The caterer says he doesn't know how|this could have happened.
Well, I feel like I ate|a loaf of nuts.
I mean, even my tongue|is swollen.
You're marrying|a big, fat, puffy tomato mouth.
It's not that bad, really. Besides,|the swelling's already going down.
- Yeah?|- Hey, Kev.
- Yeah.|- Just coming to check up
on the bride-to-be.|For the love of God...
- Out!|- You see?
I told you it looks terrible.
- I told you.|- Baby, I promise you.
In 24 hours the swelling|will be completely gone.
Give me that!
Door was open.
Oh thank God.
- The Bride of Frankenstein is gone.|- I know.
I was up half|the night worrying.
- You look great.|- I just don't know
- how those nuts got in there.|- Yeah.
Hmm.|Wait.
Hey, do you think|she would...
No!
Come on.
I mean, she's crazy,
but she's not like,|psycho-killer crazy.
Hmm.
No!
Oh, hey, I was wondering.|Could I bring a date
to your wedding?
Of course. My God.|How exciting.
Great. Thanks.|So then, I'll see you later.
But... w-wait!
- Who is he? Tell me!|- Oh, it's...
okay, don't be mad.|It's Dr. Chamberlain.
Actually "Paul."
- Is that his real name?|- That's very funny.
I gotta go get a mani, pedi|and my eyebrows waxed.
But I'll see you in|a couple hours, okay?
- Oh, let me go down with you.|- Okay.
Oh God.
She added|even more ruffles!
Where's your prom date,|senorita?
Oh, wait a minute. This is too|damn good. Where's my camera?
This is just too good.
Will you just get me|out of this right now?
Come here.
- Cheers.|- Hey.
Thanks for coming.
Okay, guys, let's go see|how Charlie's doing.
Ah, yes, please.
Uh-huh.
Oh my God. Those are|so much better than mine.
Don't... touch me!
I got out of that car|the same way I got in it...
without you.|Now where is she?
You here with the bride|or the groom?
I'm here with my mother.
Oh.
She looked a lot older. I...
Well, look|what we have here.
Oh my God.
You look beautiful.|Oh my God.
- Oh my God.|- This is it!
Yeah!
- Oh God, did you talk to the priest?|- I talked to him.
He's just going|to skip right over that whole
- "if anyone should object" part.|- Okay.
You're a vision in white,|sweetie, really.
Knock knock.|Look at you!
And so is your|mother-in-law.
Mm. Mm-mm-mm.
All right.|Everybody out.
Out.|Give the bride a moment.
- No way.|- What?
What is that?
- What?|- Where's your bridesmaid's dress?
Oh, I gave it|to Ruby's daughter.
She works at Hooters.|She was thrilled.
I don't have a daughter?
Oh.
Rude.
Take off that|white dress right now
or I'll take it off|for you.
Don't you tell me|what to do!
You did not|just poke me!
Don't you touch me,|you two-bit tramp!
Oh my God!|Viola, I'm so sorry.
I didn't mean to...
You don't go and slap somebody|then apologize.
Get some backbone!
God! This is crazy!
Why don't you just|face it?
I'm marrying Kevin today and there's|nothing you can do about it.
You face it! You'll never be|good enough for him!
Didn't stop you|from marrying my son.
- Oh God, no.|- Well, look at you.
All in white.
You are so predictable.
Oh, Gertrude.|I didn't know you were coming.
You didn't?
Wonder why.|Oh, I know.
You didn't send me|an invitation!
I thought you|were dead.
But evil doesn't die|so easily.
I heard you got sacked|and thrown into a loony bin.
- Oh! Oh!|- My congratulations.
Oh my God.
Oh my God!
These hors d'oeuvres|taste like old socks.
