Wedding Bells Page #4

---

Okay? I heard her.

[chuckles]

Unless...

What?

Unless we really

can do both.

[]

You wanna see it?

Yeah. Sure.

Okay...

So, the vintage

farmhouse lanterns set the tone,

but the blue palette

will modernize the look,

even the candles change...

"Country meets city."

Timeless and trendy...

all at the same time.

Well, I have to admit...

it's pretty cool.

Why aren't you saying anything?

I was expecting you

to say you were joking.

No. No, I'm not joking.

I think this can work.

[]

[nervous overlapping chatter]

All right.

We need supplies.

[Nick]:
I don't know, for me,

I like the cool-tone whites.

I actually like

the warm yellows.

We want people

to feel like

they can take

their shoes off.

Ugh... there's nothing worse

than women taking

their shoes off at a wedding.

So tacky.

Try wearing heels

for five minutes

and then see how you feel.

Well, all I'm saying

is that you spend hours

getting ready for the wedding,

and the second

the conga line breaks out,

you all turn into

a bunch of hillbillies.

I feel like you have

some deep-seated issues

with feet.

No, no, no, no, I just, uh...

I like things to be

more refined, you know?

And I don't?

No, you don't.

You like things

to be more comfy.

What's wrong with comfy?

Nothing.

Nothing's wrong with comfy.

Just not all the time.

If you grew up in a house

where everything was white,

spotless, and off-limits,

you'd see why I value comfort

above all else.

It's okay to relax sometimes,

you know?

Uh-huh.

Do you realize that

you never sit down?

I can rest when

I'm dead, right?

You know what?

I'm going to teach you

how to relax.

No, thank you.

Challenge accepted.

Huh.

Ooh!

Look at these remnants.

Dirt-cheap...

and fabulous.

Is this the wedding version

of Maria von Trapp

using old curtains

to make playclothes?

Yes! You know that movie?

What, a guy can't

enjoy a good musical?

Yeah, I just didn't

think that guy was you.

It was my mom's

favorite movie.

Used to watch it

every year.

Mine, too!

You're not gonna burst

into song, though, are you?

[huffs unconvincingly]

No.

Yeah, you were.

[Nick chuckles]

Oh, I can totally

re-purpose this for Amy's dress!

It's gorgeous.

Yeah, it's nice.

You know,

I betcha five bucks

this whole place

and everything in it

is haunted.

[chuckles]

Nothing's haunted.

Oh. Except this box.

There's definitely

a ghost in there.

Oh, yeah? [gasps]

[high voice]:
Help me!

I'm trapped inside

this antique store

and I can't get out!

[laughing]

Nick! Is that you?

Henry! Hey.

How're you doing?

Good to see you!

Uh, Henry, this is Molly.

Very pleased to meet you.

Hi!

Wow, it's-- it's been ages.

Yeah.

So what brings you

back in these parts?

Well, actually,

we are planning a wedding.

[chuckling]

Oh, I could tell.

You two have

that certain something.

Reminds me so much

of your parents when--

We're not the ones

who are getting married.

Oh?

Yeah, we're helping

our best friends

plan theirs.

Yeah, we barely

know each other.

We're practically

strangers.

Yeah.

[simultaneously]:

Ooh! That's cool!

[]

I don't believe it.

[]

No way!

Gus! Tony!

Great to see you guys!

Hey, this is

a friend of mine, Molly.

-Molly, Tony and Gus.

-Hey.

What are you guys doing here?

We're here to help

whip this place into shape.

Well, how did

you know?

Your dad called.

Really? He did?

So what do you want done?

Well, uh...

budget's a little thin

on this one, guys.

This isgratis.

Your pop

called in a favor.

You got paint?

Yeah, in the back of

Charlie's truck.

Seems like your dad's

really trying.

Well, he called

a couple of friends,

but he can still

barely talk to me.

[quietly]:

Nicky, give your pop a break.

He did the best he could.

[]

[]

[Molly]:

"Salmon roe parfait"?

[Nick]:
Yeah!

Oh, come on!

We need to have

something on the menu

that isn't...nouveau.

You need to realize

the three main food groups

aren't cheese, bacon,

and ranch dressing.

Ah. But they're

the best food groups.

[grumbles] Ah. Come on.

We got to do

something better.

Amy and James,

they want something

more artful.

-"Art"?

-Yes!

Come on!

People want to eat.

No, they want

anexperience.

How about the experience

of feeling full?

Leaving people

full is easy.

Anyone can do that.

Leaving them satisfied,

that means

engaging their senses,

taking 'em on a journey,

and that's gotta have

sight, smell,

taste, everything.

I got it.

Okay.

Chicken pot pie.

Really? Did you hear anything

that I just said?

Everybody loves

chicken pot pie!

Wait a second...

What if...

What?

What if we did both?

[]

Hot, hot, hot.

Okay...

Chicken pot pie--

Nick Turner-style.

It's got...

cremini mushrooms,

fresh leeks,

roasted heirloom

garden vegetables,

uh, hickory-smoked

organic chicken,

and a rosemary-infused

biscuit crust.

Sounds complex.

Yeah, it-- [stammers]

Would you just try it? Come on.

[]

You hate it.

This is literally

the best thing

I've ever tasted.

Seriously.

Wow. Means a lot,

coming from you, thank you.

You know what this is?

This is the perfect compromise

for the wedding menu.

It's Clarissa's comfort food...

with a Nick Turner twist.

I really want to

argue with you,

but I think you're right.

[laughs]

We could do pasta--

Homemade pasta, with...

butter-poached prawns,

mustard greens,

and hickory-smoked bacon.

Fried chicken.

With a Sriracha brine,

served on peashoots,

and roasted

carrot pure.

Meatloaf?

Vealmeatloaf,

served with...

sweet tomato confit.

And baked potatoes?

Sweet potato...gnocchi

served with kale

and arugula pesto.

That sounds perfect! Oh!

[both laughing]

What about the wedding cake?

I have a recipe for that,

upstairs, in my book.

What's in it?

Chicken.

I'll call a bakery.

Yeah. Good idea.

Okay.

[]

[mock sobbing]

I can't believe it.

Discount shoes

for my wedding.

Do I sound like a jerk?

A little.

You're supposed to say

I'm not.

You're crying

about shoes.

I'm crying

about everything.

You're acting like

we're not getting married, Amy.

We are,

and our friends are making sure

it'll be wonderful.

We're the luckiest

people in the world.

You're right.

We are lucky.

I'm sorry.

These look pretty good.

Come in a 13?

[thunder crashing]

[mutters to self]:

It'll come.

It always does.

[thunder clapping]

Just relax.

[exhales]

Hey.

Something smells good.

What is it?

Hot cocoa.

Part of the Molly Quinn

Relaxation Experience.

Probably instant.

Shut up.

What are you

doing in here, anyway?

We don't have time

to sit around.

I was trying to work on designs

for the next season, but...

it's just not happening.

Ah. Sounds like we're in

a similar place, work-wise.

Nothing happening.

[rain pattering on windows]

Come sit with me,

listen to the rain

for a minute.

Why would I want to do that?

Because it's one of

life's greatest pleasures.

Oh?

Well, it is to me.

I'm a life-long pluviophile.

That sounds disease-y.
