Monday, September 24, 2007 After a little drama, Katie and Jack tie the knot. Henry's there to lighten the mood when it's needed, and Vienna's thoughts turn to the possibility of their own second chance at a wedding. Today’s episode was directed by Michael Eilbaum and written by Jeanne Marie Ford.
Transcripts from TVMegasite Henry: Be happy. Always. Katie: Thank you. Henry: I'm sure you realize what a lucky man you are. Jack: Oh, I do.
Vienna: What are you doing? Henry: Keeping an eye out for the one whose fondest wish is to see this wedding tank. Vienna: If Carly does show up, there's a pitchfork in the barn. Maybe I should go get it. Henry: Carly with a pitchfork -- how apt. Vienna: Let's try not to think the worst. After all, love is in the air. Minister: They stand before us today, because that seed and friendship blossom into love. Kathryn and Jack -- Kim: What's with Brad? Bob: I know. Looks like he'd rather be anyplace but here. Katie: We will. Jack: We will. Parker: Hey J.J., get ready for bunk beds. Minister: Marriage is an act of faith and a personal commitment as well as a moral and physical union between two people. It requires and deserves daily attention and loving kindness, supported by the will to make it last.
Minister: Into this holy estate these two persons present now come to be joined. If any person can show just cause why they may not be joined together, let them speak now or forever hold their peace. Henry: Why would they leave that part in? [Cell phone rings] [Cell phone ringing] Holden: Would you turn that thing off? Brad: Okay, I'm sorry. I'll be right back. It's an emergency. Margo: I knew I should've kept that phone. Brad: Hello? Carly: I hope I didn't catch you in the middle of something. Brad: Uh, no. What do you need? Carly: I need you to come down and get me. I'm -- I'm at the police station. Brad: The police station? Carly: It's a long story. I'll explain when you get here. Brad: I'm on my way. Carly: I'm not going to make you late for the wedding, am I? Brad: No, no worries. I'll be right there. I'm sorry. Jack: That's okay. Have a seat and let's pick up where we left off. Brad: No, Jack, I'm sorry. I can't stay. Both: What? Brad: I mean, I'll be back. Right back, okay? There's something I have to do. It's important. Jack: No, it's not okay. Brad: I'm sorry. Wait for me. Wait for me. Jack: What is wrong with you, Brad? It's all right, just -- let's keep going. Katie: No, no. I think we should wait. Jack: Katie -- Katie: What's a few minutes? We'll at least be married. Jack: I know, but -- Katie: We did this so fast, and so many of our friends and family couldn't be here. I know it's important for you to have your brother here. It's important for me, too. Jack: You're right, you're right. Sometimes I think you know me better than I know myself. Umm -- sorry everybody. Sorry for the hold-up, but it looks like we're going to take a five minute break. So feel free to stand up and stretch, and chit-chat. Help yourself to one of Emma’s famous pecan cookies. She mailed us six dozen to remember her by. But don't touch the cake. Okay? No cake. Henry: What are they thinking? Margo: Do you have any idea who was on the phone with Brad? Holden: No. Margo: Because he's been on that phone all day. Holden: I figured he was trying to get a date for the reception. He must've called every woman in his little black book of his. Margo: Well, whoever she is, she better get here soon or I'm gonna kill 'em both.
Vienna: Brad won't be back anytime soon. Henry: That's what I'm afraid of. Vienna: Oh, Dear. How are we going to entertain our guests? Henry: Well that's easy. If there's one thing that we know how to do, it's how to liven up a party. Vienna: There are children here. Henry: I know that. You're so dirty. Hey -- hey, everybody. I got an idea as a way of passing the time, maybe with a little stimulating conversation. What do you say about we each take turns and talk about Jack and Katie’s best-kept secrets?
Jack: Katie, my lovely wife-to-be, doesn't have any secrets. No, she doesn’t. Even if you haven't read "Oakdale Confidential," all you have to do is watch her show for a week. And you will know everything from what she eats for breakfast to what she wears to bed. Thank you very much. Henry: Like that won't change after today. [Laughter] You know, I'm sure that some of you are aware of Katie’s perky and fluffy little bunny, Snickers. And Sage's pet turtle, Arnold. Right, Arnold? Which brings to mind the famous fable of the tortoise and the hare. Stay with me. Jack: Yes, I'm with you. Henry: Fate brought Jack and Katie together a long time ago, first as friends. Now I'm sure that some of you are aware that Katie can be a little quirky, can be a little flighty -- Jack: Take it easy. Henry: She can be flighty. But there is no better friend than Katie Peretti soon-to-be Snyder. Vienna: Hear, hear. Henry: All right. Now I'm not the one that should be saying this, but I've got to tell you that this is the secret to a long lasting relationship. I know this seemed like a whirlwind courtship, but I think this wedding will prove -- that slow and steady wins the race. Jack: It all has a point! Henry: I'm a genius! Jack: You are. A genius! That was a wonderful story. Henry: Yes well, you know -- Jack: And speaking of turtles, my brother is certainly taking his time, isn't he? Kim, he doesn't have much of a social life. Do you think that phone call could have had something to do with work? Kim: Well, no. We're not even shooting this week. Have you thought about calling him? Jack: Now there's an idea. Kim: Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks. Jack: Yes they do. Thank you.
Henry: Thank God. I was running out of stories. Jack: Yes Darling? Sage: But Uncle Brad isn't here. Jack: He'll be here for the best part -- the party. So can we -- can we pick up where we left off? Please? Minister: If any person can show just cause why they may not be joined together -- Parker: Nobody objects. Let's do this. Jack: Katie, true to form, it's been one heck of a day. There's a time there when I didn't think we'd make it through our first date, much less all the way to the altar. Minister: Twice. Jack: Okay, thank you. And you know I don't read Shakespeare, but I do believe he said something about the course of true love not being smooth. You and I both thought that we'd found true love in the past. And it wasn't so long ago, we were just a couple of lonely hearts looking for someone who understood. And that's when I saw you with my children -- and that's when I fell in love with you. Katie, we're not -- we're not going to be joined together as one today -- but as a family. And I cannot wait to start building our family and our future, together. Katie: Jack, my whole life I have been searching for something -- thrill, adventure -- I could never really put my finger on it. Until you. I figured out what it was. It was you. Strong, stable, wonderful you. And your wonderful family. And now I would like to say something to Parker, Sage and J.J. I am making vows to your father, today, but I want to make a promise to you, too. I know you have a mother who loves you very much. And I could never replace her. I would never try. But I am here for you. And I will love you and respect you always. Thank you so much for sharing your father with me. And I feel so blessed to have all of you in my life.
Jack: I, Jack, take you, Kathryn, to be my wife. To have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, 'til death do us part. Katie: I, Kathryn, take you, Jack, to be my husband. To have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish, 'til death do us part. Minister: Wedding rings are an outward and visible sign of an inward spiritual grace and the unbroken circle of love, signifying to all the union of this man and this woman in marriage. Jack: Thank you. This ring is a token of my love. I marry you with this ring, with all that I have, with all that I am. Katie: This ring is a token of my love. I marry you with this ring, with all that I have and all that I am. Minister: By the power vested in me by the state of Illinois, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride. Jack: Oh, thank you. Minister: I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Jack Snyder.
Vienna: Jack and Katie sure know how to plan a wedding. Henry: Yeah, they did a bang-up job with ours. Too bad I fell down on the job. Vienna: No, I did. Henry: You know, I'm glad they're both getting a second chance. Or a third chance or fourth chance, as the case may be. Vienna: How about us, Henry? Henry: Slow and steady wins the race? Vienna: Are you saying that you're willing to give marriage a chance after all?
