Mary Worth 917

And with that, Adrian Corey restores order to the Worthiverse. The dinner show is over. Enjoy your meal. Bland is once again on the menu. Oh, and if any one else is thinking of walking out with a $74 bottle of wine, the bar is officially closed. Thank you for your attention.

Meanwhile, married couples at the dinner contemplate the wisdom of Jill's diatribe....

Is it a weird dream...who ARE all these people that Adrian calls "folks"? Rehearsal dinners are for the wedding party and the families of the bride and groom. But Scott's parents and Adrian's mother are dead. Scott has no siblihgs and I guess Drew Corey is staying in Vietnam. Now that Jill is out of the picture, EVERYONE else is obviously much older than Adrian, and they don't appear to even know her. Must be a weird dream. Pardon me for trying to make sense of something entirely senseless.

The blandness seems to be returning from the back of the room. Note the look of horror from the folks in the front as the realize the color is slowly being drained from the room starting by the door.

you are right,kathyo, we just had sloppy joes at my Mom's house for our rehearsal dinner. no big deal?I keep thinking they are at the reception,then I remind myself they haven't had the wedding yet.

Either Adrian and Mary are standing in mud puddles or there is a spotlight shining on them. If there were a karaoke machine, the entertainment portion of this dinner wouldn't have to be over!

I know someone who can step in as maid, or perhaps matron, of honor!

@ kathyo -- I sooo agree!! Does Moy not KNOW what a "rehearsal dinner" is!?

I mean... you go to the wedding venue and you practice who stands where, and who says what, and who sings what song when...and THEN you all go out to a nice dining establishment (certainly NOT McSnooty's!) and you EAT and offer toasts to the bride and groom. The arrangement is COZY, with tables all grouped in the same zip code!

Hey, why isn't this at the Bum Boat?? Mary and Jeff always get excellent service and food there...oh, wait, maybe Jeff is also having second thoughts about Scott and doesn't want to be embarrassed.....

Robert said...

I think Anonymous is correct and Mary will gladly step in to take Jill's place of honor, and will probably take center stage and urge Adrian to stand at the back of the church, which is much better and more intimate for a wedding. Does Mary sing? Perhaps she'll warble "Oh Promise Me," or maybe "My Humps."

Oh, please let Jill be lurking in the parking lot with a broken wine bottle and a grudge, oh, please let Jill be lurking in the parking lot with a broken wine bottle and a grudge...

Robert, I had to check out "My Humps". I am guessing it won't show up on the Charterstone juke box anytime soon.

Chester moving to the salad bar now that the open bar is closed. I guess the rest of the guests are staff of Mountview. Tho we never see the third graders who man the reception desk. Lord help an accident survivor in SR, as they are rushed to Mountview only to find "closed due to Adriens rehearsal dinner at McSnootys or Bum Boat or Three Trees" I have Met Life as my provider, and I am sure they would not approve of patients being treated for their injuries during the soup course.

Just peeked at Sunday's strip. Let the meddling begin!

@Robert: "My Humps". I nearly choked on my tea. Thanks for the laugh!!!

Well, maybe Mary can just lead the Chicken Dance, or the Electric Slide!
