When Mary says, "Together we'll make it a great day for you," I'm quite certain the "we" she's referring to includes Adrian's dead mother! Somehow she intends to channel the late Mrs. Corey and give Adrian the wedding of her dreams. We've always suspected that Mary dabbles in the dark arts as she meddles in the lives of her unsuspecting victims, but this confirms it. It may also explain why Adrian appears to have gone goth. This is gonna get spooky.Today's Full Strip

That waitress in the sleeveless dress looks like she's playing the part of Lucille Ball in an "I Love Lucy" episode.
And...WHAT's with Adrian's chopped up, jagged bangs!? Can we please get them trimmed and straightened up for the wedding?? Goth, indeed!
That must be Adrian's mom, in the white vase.
I just hope Mary doesn't go home and start brushing her long hair...in front of that magic mirror of hers...in the dark...while mumbling something creepy to Arian's ma's spirit!!
Is Adrian going to turn into a Bridezilla?
@Robert -- Or Mary will turn into surrogate-Momzilla, and she and Jeff will have a tiff about it, and they'll make up at the reception.
Which I fear will be at the Bum Boat.
@Vicki - The sleeveless waitress looks more like Mary Martin to me.
Adrian cut her hair in the ladies room. ewww
@mrvy. personally I think it'll be the Golden Corridor.
You know, maybe it's the soap opera fan in me, but with all these mentions of Adrian's dearly departed mother, I can't help but wonder if she's really NOT dead- and will show up at the wedding, barging through the church doors, just as the minister says; ''If anyone here knows of any reason why these two should not be wed...'' That would certainly put a crimp in Mary & Jeff's bland little relationship!
Just what I was thinking, Maude! Nobody's shown us pictures of Adrian's mom's funeral, nor has anyone told us how she died. Perhaps her plane crashed on a remote, uncharted (until now) island. I'm looking forward to seeing her at the wedding! Which Mary and Adrian will have decided to turn into a double wedding, with Jeff and Mary as the second couple!
Wasn't someone asking yesterday if Adrian could change her haircut before the wedding? We'll, she's gone and done just that -- over lunch! If you don't like the new hairstyle, don't worry, it'll be back to the old one by dessert.
Adrian and Mary are lunching in a place new to me, but I can see it upholds the Santa Royale standards of offering patrons a choice of table or no table, and if a table is chosen, the option of spinning or stationary. Mary, as usual, has gone with spinning.
Perhaps Aldo Kelrast survived his accident, and has been living in a long forgotten cabin in the woods, where he's been nursed back to health by none other than Jeff's not really dead wife- but both of them have amnesia! Also- Is it me, or does Adrian kind of resemble Annie Lennox, in this particular strip?
When was the last time you saw a waitress (sorry, server) in a frilly apron? Or any kind of apron? Come ON!! I think Mary's Magic Time Machine has taken us back to Stouffer's on the Square (you Clevelanders of a certain age might remember).
Ruh-roh, Mary seems mighty displeased at Adrian's mention of a third party (Jill Black) coming into the planning picture.
Let me guess how this is going to go. Mary does some digging and finds out Jill Black is Ted in a wig posing as a wedding planner and looking to bilk Adrian out of more money.
There were Stouffers restaurants in Pittsburgh, too.Pretty fancy in the early 70's.
Halloween bride? Ha! We'll be lucky if this story arc ends by Christmas.
