Vegas Vacation Page #6

Synopsis: When Clark Griswold puts his mind to something, we soon realize he hasn't got one. Still, nothing stops him when the vacation bug hits. This time, he's chosen Las Vegas, the new family entertainment capital of America! Chevy Chase returns as bubbly, bumbling Clark in Vegas Vacation, a jokers-are-wild laugh fest including two other stars from past Vacations. Beverly D'Angelo is back as wife Ellen, doting on the guy she calls "Sparky," and Randy Quaid again delights as grubby goof ball Cousin Eddie. Ethan Embry (That Thing You Do!) and screen-debuting Marisol Nichols are Griswold teens who love the round-the-clock nightlife - as long as they don't share it with Mom and Dad! From Seigfried and Roy's extravaganza to a Hoover Dam tour, from cruising to losing (Wallace Shawn as a shifty blackjack dealer) to amorous crooning (Wayne Newton falls for Ellen): watch Clark try to keep family and wallet together!

There was nothing you could do.

We don't know his name.

He was Mr. Ellis.

The loneliest guy I ever saw.

He would've given anything to have

someone sit with him and be kind.

Jeez.

I hope you kids have learned something

about the dangers of gambling.

No, Sparklet, don't blame the gambling.

Gambling is what made America great.

You see, kids...

when Columbus set sail

on a little rickety boat...

and let it ride all the way

to the New World, it was a gamble.

Ben Franklin, Thomas Edison...

Albert Einstein, all gamblers.

Wasn't Einstein German?

Hard to tell from his accent.

But I do know one thing.

When a beautiful, young coed...

took a chance on a gangly boy

of a man named Clark...

she was taking a gamble, too.

Ellen Priscilla Ruth Smith Griswold...

will you remarry me?

Ellen Griswold, do you promise

to love and honor Clark...

for as long as you live?

Oh, God!

I do.

Clark Griswold...

I love you, Eddie.

Do you promise to love and honor Ellen

for as long as you both shall live?

I do.

I don't care if you ruined my life,

I love you!

By the power vested in me...

by the Las Vegas Entertainers'

Association, I pronounce you married.

You may kiss the bride.
