Oh, gross -- Aunt Julie is calling Annie. At least she's calling to say that she won't be attending the rehearsal dinner since she's going into labor. Fortunately for us, Uncle Hank only has about two lines. I'm really glad we won't have to see a lot of them this episode, but I'm not sure why the producers bothered hiring them for this one-minute scene.
And it's time for another pointless guest appearance. This time it's from Ginger, Annie's stepmother, who's calling from the Phoenix airport to tell her that she's misplaced Annie's father. Oops! In light of that, Ginger and Gramps may not be able to make the rehearsal dinner. And we're supposed to care?
In another airport -- Buffalo, I assume -- Ben is running to catch up to Mary, who's walking with another flight attendant. When he does catch her, he hands her a box which contains his class ring. He says he didn't have time to get her a real engagement ring. Even though he hasn't done anything very eyecatching so far, all the extras in the vicinity are staring at him and Mary and eavesdropping on their conversation, which makes me wonder if they're all Camden relatives waiting for their flights to Glenoak. When Ben gets down on one knee and loudly proposes to Mary, the extras start applauding and cheering. Mary isn't applauding or cheering, though. In fact, she turns down Ben's proposal and tells him to go home. He stands there looking kinda vacuous. I would feel a little bad for him, but I'm too busy laughing -- especially when I see that he is standing in front of the restrooms. Had Mary accepted his proposal, that would have made a lovely story for their grandchildren. Maybe that's why he was speaking so loudly before -- to make sure he could be heard over the sound of flushing. As Ben continues to stand there dumbly, a couple of extras walk by behind him. It looks like one of them is laughing at Ben.
Dopey is walking out of the Glenoak Free Clinic when PC runs up to him. She's wearing street clothes and a wedding veil. Needless to say, she looks totally stupid. I don't know how she found Dopey, but she says she's been running around town looking for him to tell him their fathers have cancelled their wedding. Well, if there isn't going to be a wedding, maybe PC's just trying to get some use out of her wedding veil by wearing it around town.
Dopey walks into the CamBoudoir to confront RevCam about canceling the wedding. They have yet another dreadfully dull argument about Dopey's conversion, and then Eric tells his son that he will not be attending his wedding. He's arrogant enough to think that this will make Dopey change his mind about converting. Like most of his ideas, this one really isn't very good.
