Mary Worth 886

What is it about rational Adrian on Sundays, but emotionally insecure Adrian on weekdays? All week she's been doubting herself because of Jill's manipulative statements: Your dress is old fashioned. I don't want to be a joke walking down the aisle. You're marrying below yourself. He is only a cop, and I'm a doctor. But last Sunday, Adrian was all Let's not worry about the dress, and now today: Lemon meringue pie is for losers. People can say what they want.

I hope Scott works hard all week but gets Sundays off. That's probably the best chance for their marriage.

Well, the lemon meringue pie has arrived. Just a note to Beatrice Chestnut, fifth grade color artist: This is what a slice of lemon meringue pie looks like:

Mary Worth, you lying little sneak. You just told Jill Black that you didn't want dessert, but the moment she leaves, you order lemon meringue pie. Back stabber!

Still, you can't blame Mary; she looks like a lemon meringue pie. Her hair is the meringue.

I know Mary is excited to have chin napkin back, and Adrian is depressed that her little tyrannosaurus arms keep her from using a glass properly, but if Jill gets away unscathed, this lunch is entirely for naught.

Let us not forget, Scott saved her! She saved her from Ted Confey, who Adrian mistook for someone likable. Now it is Mary's turn to save Adrian from someone else Adrian has mistaken as someone likable. Poor Adrian. Three years ago, she was performing brain surgery on herself and accidentally removed the section of brain that assesses whether or not someone is likable or not. Fortunately, there are plenty of people around who can save her.

Jill makes an excellent point. I mean, look at Mary. She's been rejecting Jeff's proposals for years. Of course, she's been married before, so she may not be as desperate as Adrian who has been trying to get married for as long as anyone can remember, and is perfectly willing to settle beneath her station.

Is Adrian Corey suddenly the only level-headed woman in this trio, or did she just get distracted when she walked past the persuasively named Lunch Restaurant?

A lady would wait to laugh until after Adrian had left the room.

I can see Jill and Mary developing a wonderful friendship. A year from now, Mary will say, "You know, Jill, I did not like you when we first met. Do you remember that? And Adrian's silly dress? Wonderful memories."

Adrian's gift for choosing friends never ceases to amaze. Jill Black, Ted Confey and Mary Worth... what a stable. Speaking of stables, something about Jill's face today reminds me of when Pinocchio's friends turned into jackasses.

It's especially hard to see yourself clearly in a funhouse mirror that inflates your head, dislocates your shoulder and spins your veil around backwards.
