Transcript[]
(Scene cuts to Shubie walking into a restaurant and sitting down at a table) Shubie looks at her watch.
Shubie: "Where's Martha? I thought she was supposed to be here by now." Martha walks in and sits across from Shubie.
Martha: "Hi, Shubie! Sorry I'm late. I was busy picking out what food to serve at the reception."
Shubie: "Reception? What reception?"
Martha: "For me and Tom's wedding. We're getting married next Saturday."
Shubie: "You and Tom are getting married?! Congratulations Martha! I'm so happy for you!"
Martha: "Thanks! I'm so excited! That's actually why I wanted to have lunch with you today. Tom and I were wondering if Nat could be Tom's best man."
Nat: "Of course he can! Oh, but doesn't Tom want Fred to be his best man? I always thought that they were best friends."
Martha: "They are, but we decided not to invite Fred and Sadie to our wedding."
Shubie: "Really? Well isn't Frank one of Tom's best friends too? I'm surprised Tom doesn't want him to be his best man instead of Nat."
Martha: "Frank and Nancy aren't invited either."
Shubie: "Why aren't Sadie, Fred, Nancy and Frank invited?"
Martha: "Do you remember what happened at my last wedding?"
Shubie: "Oh yeah..."
(Flashback to Martha's first wedding) Here comes the bride begins to play. Martha begins to walk down the aisle. Sadie and Frank open the door and walk towards a pew.
Sadie: "Watch out! Pregnant lady coming through!" Sadie pushes Martha out of her way and Martha falls onto the ground. As Sadie and Frank walk into the pew, a pillow falls out of Sadie stomach. Sadie pushes it back into her dress to make it look like she's pregnant.
(Flashback ends)
(Scene cuts back to Martha and Shubie in the restaurant)
Shubie: "Oh my gosh, I almost forgot about that."
Martha: "And do you remember the stunt Nancy pulled during the service?"
Shubie: "No, I don't think I remember that."
Martha: "Well back then, Nancy was married to Fred who had just gotten divorced from Mable. So when Fred and Nancy ended up sitting next to Mable who had just married Lenny, you can imagine what was said."
(Flashback to Nancy and Mable sitting next to each other during Martha's wedding)
Nancy: "Hi, Mable, how's it feel to be married to someone as thin as you? No wonder he's so skinny, he can't digest the awful food you cook!"
Mable: "Lenny is very well fed for your information. We're both just naturally thin."
Nancy: "Yeah, right. Well I'll let you know that Momma Nancy is feeding your children well for you. It's a shame you lost custody of them."
Mable: "I didn't lose custody of them, I agreed to have Fred keep the kids since I see them in school everyday.
Nancy: "Oh, I forgot you're a teacher. No wonder Fred divorced a teacher like you for a wealthy bank teller like me. But I mean, at least you got married to a deadbeat that barely makes 75% of my husband's salary and is known by every woman as the ugliest man in Bikini Bottom!"
Mable: "What did you just say about my husband?!" Mable punches Nancy in the face and the two begin to fight causing the whole church to look at them.
(Flashback ends)
(Scene cuts back to Martha and Shubie in the restaurant)
Shubie: "Wow, I never knew why Nancy and Mable got into a fight during your wedding, but I'm sure that won't happen again. Nancy isn't even married to Fred anymore, she's married to Frank now."
Martha: "Yeah, but Frank is Sadie's ex-husband, and Fred is married to Sadie now so it wouldn't surprise me if Nancy and Sadie get into a fight at this wedding. Nancy's my best friend, but I don't want this wedding to end up like my last."
Shubie: "I completely understand your concern, Martha. It's your big day so you should do what you think is best."
Martha: "Thanks, Shubie. But promise that you won't tell Sadie or Nancy about the wedding, and you can't tell Sally either. I didn't invite her since she's Tom's ex-wife."
Shubie: "Your secret's safe with me! I won't tell a soul."
Martha: "Thanks, Shubie. I knew I could count on you. That's why I made you my maid of honor."
Shubie: "I'm your maid of honor?! Oh, I've always wanted to be someone's maid of honor! Thank you Martha!" Shubie screams excitedly.
(Scene cuts to the wedding)
Shubie, Nat and Susie walk into the church.
Shubie: "Susie, you sit here." Shubie points at a pew where Mable, Lenny and Billy are sitting.
Martha: "Hey Shubie, I knew you could make it! We need a flower girl. Is it okay if Susie does it?"
Shubie: "Of course!"
Martha: "Great, the flowers are down there." Martha points to the back of the church. Susie gets out of the pew and runs over to the flowers. Music begins to play.
Martha: "I'd better go. The wedding's starting. I'm so nervous. Does this dress make my butt look big?"
Shubie: "Not at all! You look stunning, Martha."
Martha: "Thanks, Shubie. And thanks again for all the help you and Nat have given us. It really means a lot."
Shubie: "You're welcome, Martha. I remember how hectic it was on me and Nat's wedding day." Martha leaves and Shubie stands next to Evelyn and Tina-Fran on the altar, while Nat stands with Harold, Clayton, Pilar and Scooter on the other side.
Shubie: "Is this really everyone that's coming?"
(Scene cuts to Mable, Billy and Lenny who are the only people in the pews)
Tina: "I think so." Here comes the bride begins to play. Susie walks down the aisle throwing flowers while Martha follows behind her.
(Scene cuts to later on in the ceremony)
Priest: "Tom, do you take Martha as your lawfully wedded wife?"
Tom: "I do."
Priest: "And Martha do you take Tom as your lawfully wedded husband?"
Martha: "I do."
Priest: "I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride." Tom and Martha kiss.
Crowd: "Awwwww..."
Billy: "Ew, gross!" Mable shushes Billy.
(Scene cuts to Shubie and Nat at Martha and Tom's reception) Martha walks over to their table.
Martha: "So what do you guys think of the food?"
Shubie: "It's excellent, Martha. I really love the lasagna and these decorations are gorgeous!"
Nat: "And I love the steak!"
Martha: "That's great to hear. Make sure to save some room for the cake though! I can't thank you two enough for helping me and Tom with the wedding. It certainly turned out to be much better than my last one. And I can't thank Susie enough either! She was a beautiful flower girl!"
Shubie: "Thank you, Martha. We're just happy that we could help you and Tom out on your big day." Martha walks away. A song starts playing.
Nat: "Hey, they played this song at our wedding reception."
Shubie: "Oh, that's right. I remember dancing to it with you. Aren't weddings so romantic?" Shubie wraps her arm around Nat.
Susie: "Hey, look! They're bringing out the cake!"
Tom: "Did somebody say cake? Wait, what's that smell? Is that chocolate?"
Martha: "Yes it is, honey. I ordered a chocolate cake for our wedding."
Tom: "You ordered a chocolate cake for our wedding? CHOCOLATE! CHOCOLATE!" Tom jumps out of his chair and sprints over to the cake. Tom begins to tear through the cake. Martha gets out of her chair and chases after Tom.
Martha: "Tom! What has gotten into you?"
Tom: "CHOCOLATE!" Shubie lets go of Nat and covers Susie's eyes.
Shubie: "On second thought, maybe weddings aren't so romantic."
