ADULT ADAM: Back in the '80s, my family had plenty of missteps when it came to love.

[SOBBING GIBBERISH]

But for one magic moment,

it seemed like
the gods of love were
smiling on all of us.

I was with Brea,
Barry had Ren,

and Erica and Geoff
were as strong as ever.

Even my dad's friend
Bill Lewis had found someone.

My angel, Dolores,
I promise to cherish you,

and to listen to you
recount your dreams

no matter
how dumb they are,

and to smile when I eat
what you call a taco salad.

Why would you toss
a pear in there?

This is a courthouse.
We don't have time for vows.

Is your witness here?Mur-man, you're up.

And I gotta tell you,
I'm ready,

except I'm not putting
my hand on a Bible.

I just need your signature.

Stop! Nobody sign
a damn thing!

Oh, no.
She found us. How?

This morning, Murray says
he's going out for a walk,

and naturally I assumed
he's terminally ill
or having an affair,

so I followed him.

A walk, Murray?

That's a lie as lazy
as the man who told it.

And how dare the two of you
try to sneak off and elope?

I'm sorry. Is this any
of your business?

Silly Dolores.
Bill is my husband's
best friend,

which makes him
my best friend,

which makes this
all about me.

That does not track.

Which is why we didn't
tell you about it.

We knew you'd want
to take over the wedding
and do something crazy.

All I wanted to do

was throw them
a grand wedding
for the ages.

I just need six months
and a quarter
of a million dollars.

We leave for Tahiti
on Sunday.

Challenge accepted.
The wedding is tomorrow!

Please, Bill, just say "I do"
and sign the paper.

Then she can't touch us.

Dolores, your wedding day
is the most important day
of your life.

Murray and I
will never forget ours.

Yeah, it was
the dead of winter.July 3rd.

There was a chill
in the air.The cake melted.

Memories.
The slide show of my mind.

You could have
what we have.

[GASPS] Ooh,
and we'll have it
in the backyard.

But nobody uses
the john in the house
'cause we got bushes.

That's both a kind
and wildly ungenerous offer.

But no one can plan
an entire wedding in a day.

Watch me.
[CHUCKLING]

Whee! [LAUGHS]

That was
my birth certificate.

♪♪♪♪

Life-changing news,
everyone.

We're going on safari!

And I'm gonna walk across
some rocks on a river

only to realize
they're hippos.

I have no information,
but I'm positive
that's all wrong.

In the next 24 hours,

you all are gonna help me
plan a wedding.

Yay!Zero chance.

No, thanks.In Africa?

You have no choice!

And it's gonna
be a ridiculous,
over-the-top-affair.

This is gonna be a disaster,
so I'm bringing Ren.

She's a foxy wildcard
that'll lighten up
this snooze-fest.

If he's bringing Ren,
then I'm bringing Brea.

No guests.
They cost money.

But it's a wedding,

and I'm obviously
bringing Geoff.Who?

This isn't because your father
doesn't know my name.

It's just weddings
get me going.

You know, the bride
in the dress of her dreams,

the promise of forever,

the dad in the wheelchair
who's standing up

just for that last little
walk down the aisle.

This is who you
want to bring? Really?

Everyone's invited, Murray.
Even hysterical Geoff.

Who's getting married,
again?

Your dad's friend Bill
and some rando.

Oh, it's gonna be
so much fun!

Ooh, it's like
we're all getting married.

No.Don't forget me!

ADULT ADAM:
It was November 4th,
1980-something,

and my mom was attempting
to do the impossible...

Plan an entire wedding with
less than 24-hours' notice.

We got here
as soon as we could.

What happened to Murray?

Did he take a header
down the stairs

because his feet
are so swollen?

Are his injuries consistent
with blunt-force trauma

and you have
a rock-solid alibi,

but we know in our hearts
it was you?

Close.

He's barely helping me
throw a wedding by tomorrow.

Dang it, Beverly!

I had a tennis lesson
with Lars.

Lars!

Good. Channel that weird,
middle-aged energy into this.

Ginzy, I need enough flowers
for a presidential funeral.

Linda, I need you
to cater a meal

for a hundred picky eaters.

Essie...

Prove yourself useful.

I once went to a wedding
that had a really fun psychic.

Oh, she was a hoot.

Did she predict how useless
you'd be in this moment?

Yoo-hoo!

ADULT ADAM: Of course,
my mom didn't account

for her rival yenta,

who could smell a wedding

being planned
from a mile away.

Jane Bales.

To what do I owe
this displeasure?

I just popped over

because I heard
you were planning a wedding.

Based on the interior
of your home,

I wanted to stop you.

You will plan this wedding
over my dead body.

I introduced
Bill and Dolores.

I don't want you
screwing this up.

Please. I am
the best party planner

in Montgomery County,
Southern New Jersey,

and the entire
Eastern seaboard

south of Delaware.

Well, that's impossible
because I am.

And the rest of the U.S.
and Puerto Rico and Guam.

I once threw myself
a baby shower

while I was giving birth.

I threw a quinceanera
for a 50-year-old white guy.

It was super weird,
but it was his day.

I once threw
a Cinco de Mayo party

on Ocho de Octubre.

I threw a surprise party
for myself,

and I had no idea.

Thanks, but no, thanks.
I have it covered.

Really?
What have you done so far?

Just this.

[GASPS]

Well, it's been three minutes.
Why don't I see results?

Because you ask
too much of us?

Err!
Wrong answer, Ginzy!

Now move your puckered
poopers outta here

and come back
with a wedding!

[DOOR SLAMS][EXHALES SHARPLY]

Well, at least you're
working on your
best-man speech.

No, I'm writing
a very angry letter

to the moron who almost parked

in front of our driveway.

Dammit, Murray! You only have
two responsibilities!

Our kids?We have three kids.

I'm talking about
the wedding.

You have to write
your best-man speech

and get chairs.

Got it. Chicken fingers.Murray!

Let me give you a little piece
of advice...

If you want something
done right,

you do it yourself.

ADULT ADAM: While my dad
dodged his wedding duties,

we got hit with
a long list of chores.

I can't believe Mom

would actually ask us

to do manual labor.

What even is this thing?

My God, you know nothing.
It's called a yard fork.

Now it's a Kenpo
thrusting lance!

Hello, rambunctious children.

I am here
for the wedding.

Am I in the right place?

Sweet Witches of Eastwick!

It's Karen English,

one of Philadelphia's

more popular radio occultists.

You might recognize
this side of my face

from various
vandalized bench ads.

Tell us, enchantress,

what greatness
is in store for me?

The spirits are telling me...
Meh.

Huh?

Ooh, but I am registering

a negative
romantic complication.

There is a couple here
who will not last the night.

Someone's
getting murdered?

No.

But there is a romantic
relationship in peril.

Well, it's not mine.

My boyfriend is so loving
and devoted,

even though he just
recently chose to move out.

I see.

And Brea and I
are solid as a rock...

If half the rock
was super attractive

and the other half
was wildly insecure.

Hmm.Ha-ha!

Karen English thinks
your love is garbage.

Well, what about you
and your unlikely
partnership with Ren?

I agree. Ren is a ten.

But, as you all can see,

I'm an eleven.

Together,
we are blackjack.

All I know is that someone

is doomed here tonight.

A reckoning is coming.

I am never wrong.

I'm never wrong.

ADULT ADAM:
As Karen English had us
worried about a break-up,

my mom was trying
to keep the wedding
from falling apart.

What the hell is this?

An elegant centerpiece
of tulips and begonias.

You expect someone
to look at this

and feel anything
but sick?Maybe whimsy?

Beverly, I do think
you're pushing us
a little hard here.

I already made
350 cucumber sandwiches.

I think that's enough.

Yeah, and I agreed
to iron napkins,
not whatever these are.

Those are
Murray's formal intimates,

and you will put that iron
wherever I tell you to.

Now, getting rid of all this.
We're gonna start over.

I am done.

Good! 'Cause despite
your mediocre efforts,

you've really set me back.

I'm right behind you, Linda.

I can't believe
I wasted my morning

creasing your husband's
butt rags.

And I said some hateful words
in the bathroom to myself,

so I need to go apologize
to my children.

Well, good riddance![DOOR OPENS]

I'll just draw a frown
on a sack of flour
to replace you!

[DOOR SLAMS]Oh.

Too bad your friends
are gone

'cause I got one
for the win column.

I got us chairs.

Oh, I knew
you'd come through.

Daddy does it again.

So now that
I've done my part,

I'm gonna go to my natural
surroundings of the den.

Uh, wait, Murray.

Yeah?What am I looking at?

That's one of one hundred
premium wedding chairs.

This chair
is for a child.Nah. It's perfect.

Well, if it's so perfect,
why don't you sit down.

Because I prefer
to stand.

I like being on
the balls of my feet,
ready to pounce.

Sit!

[GROANS]

All right.
There you go.

Well, that's, uh...
That's quite comfortable.

I like being so close
to my knees.

You can sit that way
through the whole ceremony?

I'm in a great deal
of pain.

Dammit, Murray,
you failed me
like everyone else!

What am I
supposed to do now?

I'm gonna tell you
what I tell our kids.

There's nothing wrong
with quitting.

I'll take care
of the chairs.

You just go and finish writing
your best-man speech.

Hey, don't worry.
I'm gonna wing it.

ADULT ADAM:
My mom's party crew
was crumbling.

She knew there was
only one yenta

who could help her get
this wedding back on track.

I...Failed miserably

and inevitably had
to come to me for help?

It's just...You couldn't pull off
a one-day wedding by yourself

and you needed me
all along?

That's...True.

And admitting your mistake
is the first step

in the lengthy apology
you owe me.

Well, save it.

We have a wedding
to throw.

[CHOIR SINGS]

[SINGING STOPS]

Come on.

ADULT ADAM: As my mom
and Jane Bales joined forces,

the strength of our bonds
was about to be tested.

Hey, guys.
You ready?

Almost. Let me
just touch up
my lipstick.

Because I smooched it off.

[GAGS]

I'll never get
used to it.

Geoff, you got
some extremely
personal mail

that I obviously opened.

Congrats. You got into
the study-abroad
program in Spain.

Oh, my God, really?Yeah.

The Spanish are awesome.

They eat dinner at midnight,
fight bulls for fun,

and even their babies
kiss hello.

Wait, you're
just gonna jet off

to a faraway land of fancy ham
and flamenco dancing?

Oh, I-I mean, it's totally
not gonna happen.

It was just a lark.

A lark that totally panned out
in the most amazing way,
but it's not happening.

Geoff, look at me.

You have to go.

Wait. You really
want me to go?

It's Spain!

Or, as they call it,
Espana.

Es-pa-na!Huh?

Are we starting
a chant or what?

I don't think so.

Madrid, Barcelona, Ibiza.

You know your places.
Nice.

I'm gonna start the car.

But you can't drive
to Spain!

It's across a whole ocean!

[QUIETLY] Damn it.BARRY: Holy crap.

That mind witch was right.

You and Geoff are dunzo.

You don't know
what you're talking about.
It's someone else.

Brea can't come
to the wedding.

She's going to
her grandma's 70th
in Hartford.

Should I be worried?

Hot dog, yes!
Very worried.

I thought you were gonna
gently reassure me
I was being crazy.

Do you know anything
about senior birthdays
in Connecticut?

Super sexy.

That's why it's called
the Romance State.

I think
it's the Nutmeg State.

You're thinking,
but I'm knowing.

Once you cross state lines,
anything goes.

But they're just going
to the Holiday Inn.

Ouch.They have pools.

Pools have boys.Boys meet Brea.

Brea go bye-bye.Bye-bye.

Oh, God!
There is a pool!

And a free New York Times
