Unfortunately, you need a license to get married, otherwise Joan the Waitress is an ordained minister and would be happy to perform the ceremony right now.

Mary Worth 1977
I've had a few friends who were widows and widowers. Remarrying is one of the greatest challenges of their lives. Not just the decision to remarry, but also understanding the fact that their new spouse is not a replacement for their deceased spouse... to say nothing about the challenge of being the new spouse. It can be a really difficult transition. Sometimes it hasn't worked; but sometimes, if they hang out for a few weeks at each others' apartment building, it can succeed gloriously!

"Heh heh heh... you joker... that's not important to me. Cough cough."
And... CURTAIN!

Now, let's not jump to conclusions. A lot of things happen at City Hall that these two could be happy about. They could just be happy that they don't need wheelchairs and can actually climb down the non-ADA-compliant stairs; although, by the looks of their footing, they may need wheelchairs soon.

Mary Worth 1974
I don't know what a bottle of "Spark" is, but I think we're getting subliminal messages here. Hanna and Sean just watched a sickening romantic movie "based on a book." Arguably, the most sickening romantic writer these days is Nicholas Sparks, who's book "Message in a Bottle" was adapted for the screen in 1999, starring Buttercup, Elliot Ness, Butch Cassidy, and Hagrid. I don't know... maybe it isn't sickening. I mean, according to Rotten Tomatoes, a staggering 32 percent of critics actually liked it.

I have no idea what movie they're seeing, but clearly it's a HUGE hit with the coveted 45-60 demographic!

Mary Worth 1972
When I Googled "movie with happy ending lifts us up takes us away," I got several listings for Blade Runner, which suits Sean just fine, but I'm not sure it is what Hanna had in mind. It's the classic chick flick dilemma. Sean will take her to see Mommy because he wants a goodnight kiss. But he may want to reconsider getting more serious unless he really likes boring movies.

Medical clinic and a matinee: The perfect date for Hanna... but poor Sean. His girl friend just invited herself to his urologist appointment. Maybe if he sinks lower into his piano bench, he can just disappear.

Mary Worth 1970
Well, the story of Hard Hearted Hanna and her deteriorating eyesight, dysfunctional daughter, inconvenient grandson, surrendering her license, searching for a shuttle, texting an elderly man, and drinking coffee has wrapped up so nicely. There certainly aren't any more questions to answer. As Toby and Mary conclude their denouement, we can look forward to a wonderful new adventure by Monday. I for one will never look at an elderly driver the same again. This story started while my wife and I were on vacation in Hawaii last September, and it is definitely time for another visit.

Seventh Annual Worthy Awards
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the SEVENTH ANNUAL WORTHY AWARDS! Santa Royale's elite have gathered to celebrate the best of all things Mary Worth. But most importantly, the Condo Board has tabulated YOUR votes -- thousands of votes -- to determine this year's outstanding achievements.
But to get things started, what awards show would be complete without an OPENING NUMBER! Ladies and Gentlemen, put your hands together for the Edsels and their 1961 smash hit Rama Lama (Hanna) Ding Dong!
Each year, we begin by awarding the Aldo Kelrast Memorial Award to one lucky Mary Worth character who died this year. And so we are thrilled to present the award to Olive Taylor who -- wait, I'm sorry, what's that? It seems Olive was saved at the last minute by Mary Worth and has failed to qualify for the Aldo Kelrast Memorial Award this year.
That means that this year's prize goes to our runner up, the patient that Doctor Kapuht lost on the operating table. Congratulations! Just think, Olive. It could have been you!
And now, on to our awards.
The nominees for outstanding performance by a guest character are:
Jerry, the Owner of Jerry's
Bad Doctor Kapuht, M.D.

Mary Worth 1969
Hey, you two. You haven't been paying attention. He picks her up and drops her off because SEAN -- DRIVES -- HER -- PLACES! Remember when you two buttinskies confiscated her driver's license and then got tired of buying groceries for her?

Mary Worth 1968
Mary continues to observe current interactions between Hanna and Sean, and has started sketching their encounters in her notebook. Mary is to the residents of Charterstone what Jane Goodall is to the chimpanzees of Tanzania.

Hanna seems almost sinister as she shoves Amy out the door. If, indeed, that is Amy. Her eyes are suddenly brown. Perhaps it is some sort of replicant in a carefully crafted latex face that is going to head over to Sean's apartment and eat him while Amy disposes of Gordon's body in the back dumpster. This story is getting totally out of hand.
And a gentle reminder that today is the last day to vote for the Worthy Awards. Now finish eating your Sean.

The mother daughter relationship is always a challenging one. First, mom doesn't want you to date boys who pick you up after 10. Then she doesn't want you to leave your fatherless child with her so you can date boys who pick you up after 10.

Mary Worth 1965
With her new Google Glass eye wear, Hanna will have no problem staying one step ahead of Amy's efforts to thwart her relationship.

Mary Worth 1962
It makes sense that Gordy would sit in the front seat given Mary Worth's 1962 vibe, but why in the world would he be wearing a seat belt.
I'm also struggling to figure out what time it is. Assuming Hanna's concert started at 7:00 p.m., and ended at 9:00, and then 20 minutes to their seats at Diner, and 10 minutes to make Mean Tuna Clubs, it was at least 9:30 p.m. when Amy called. What kind of guy is this Dave character to be picking sweet little Amy up so late?
If you haven't had a chance yet to vote for the 2014 Worthy Awards, VOTE NOW!
