FLOWERS AND FLAKES--SPAULDING GARDENS
Hamp formally introduces Matt & Vanessa Reardon to the guests at the
reception. They kiss and perform the "first dance." Meanwhile, Van
spouts forth some more poetry about her love for Matt. The guests
get warm fuzzies. Dinah is feeling jealous. 

YACHTS AND KNOTS--THE YACHT
Alan-Michael tries to send Lucy on her way without listening to her.
"I'm sorry," Lucy says.

SHEEPS AND WOLVES--GOSHEN
Rick, Annie, and the rest of the trauma team is trying to save 
Clyde's leg. Alan is worried Reva might come in. The village
doctor calls out for Rebecca. Alan stops her just before she
comes in. "Did you mean it when you told me you did not want
to know who you were? If you don't want to know the woman you
used to be, don't go in that room. Because if you do, Reva Shayne
will be back!"

ROLL LIGHTHOUSE

QUICK, MANIPULATE ME!
Alan reassures Reva that Clyde is okay. "A trauma team from Springfield
is in there. A doctor and a nurse. They know who you are. Are you ready
for that?" Before Reva can answer, Abigail comes by with medical 
supplies. Reva sends her inside. She tells Alan, "I must do my
duty. I must help Clyde." Alan grabs her arm. "The woman in there
is engaged to Bud. Reva is shocked.

FAST, DANCE WITH ME!
Henry cuts in with Vanessa. Matt moves to Bridget. Hawk is trying to
snag some of Nola's "delicacy". "How long do I gotta wait to taste
that good smellin' somethin' you have out there in the kitchen?"
"For heaven's sake, you'd do anything for free food." Nola gives
him the first helping. 

Jet & Matt continue dancing. Van & Henry spot (what will be known 
from now on as) The Food. 

Bill asks Alex to dance. Alex is flattered. 
Susan: "Look at your mother." Nick: "I'd rather not." They dance.

Rog asks Blake to dance. "No, thank you. Why are you here? Mom
isn't here to notice how happy you are. No one's paying attention
to anything except Dinah's ridiculous feather hat." "You've changed
ever since you married Ross. I don't like the person you've become."
Fletch: "Funny, I've never liked her more." Dinah wants to leave.
They dance instead.   

MAINTENANT, ECOUTEZ MOI!
A-M thinks it's more of the same from Lucy. "It always
comes down to the same thing--NO!" "YES!" "What did you say?"
"I said 'yes'. I want to marry you."

AYE! CALL ME DOMINIC! I'M FROM DUBLIN
Jet and Nola congratulate each other. Jet dances with David. Ed
compliments Nola's outfit. She doesn't want to dance with him
because he came with Lillian. "Lillian's my bud, She's my friend."
"Exactly." Matt grabs Nola to perform an Irish dance with him.
Ed is troubled by Nola's words.

Jet and David join in the jig. Van, Nick, and Susan come next.
Eleni forces Frank to try. Gilly and Patrick are up for it. (It's
a shame they are just now toying with this relationship :( )
Ed & Lillian decide to have The Food instead. Even Hawk and
Alex feel the rhythm. Buzz and Nadine and the rest of the party
join in. Except for Dinah. She talks to Marcus. Noticing the
enjoyment of the guests, Marcus comments, "It's nothing like
your wedding, huh?" "Why are you giving me such a hard time?"
"Do you and Roger feel like that?" He leaves.

Alex follows Susan outside.

GOODNESS! CALL ME SAMUEL! I'M FROM GOSHEN
Annie asks the village doc where the extra help he promised was.
He tells her about Rebecca Blume. Abigail comes in.
 
Reva regrets not going in with Abigail. "You're the one who
keeps telling me to stop running away from my past." "Not
this way. This is not the right time."

Rick thanks Abigail for the supplies and asks her a question.
The doc tells him that Abigail is deaf, uses home sign, and
has limited lip-reading capabilities. Rick grabs her arm.
"Thank you, Abigail." She smiles and gazes at Rick.

HALLOW! CALL ME PHILLIP! I OWN A YACHT
A-M is still shocked. They sit down. Lucy blames her fear for making
her say no the first time. "You're the most incredible woman I know."
"No. Not yet. I will be." They kiss. 

SMOOCH! CALL ME RUPAUL! I HAVE A GENDER CRISIS
In Brent's apartment, he's listening to Lucy and A-M's conversation
on the boat. (He bugged the place apparently). Marian's getting
angry. Or is it jealousy? He breaks out the nail polish! AGHH!
Death by Revlon!

HALFTIME

ALEXANDRA POSITIVE
Alex apologizes for her actions. "I'm not normally a frightened person.
I'm just scared to death. My brother's missing. The man I'm in love
with is in there right now putting together a care package for his
pregnant bride. Lots of losses. And I lost Nick's twin brother
in a horrible automobile accident. If I lose Nick--" Susan
understands. She assures Alex she will never put Nick at risk of
HIV infection. "Susan, if there is anything I can do for you--"
Nick rushes up. "Alexandra! I told you not to bother her again.
She doesn't want to hear your garbage." Alex and Susan try to explain
that is was not like that. "I'm telling you for the last time
stay out of my life." Pan to the corner where Hawk is loitering.

THE FOOD
The Food is the hit of the party according to Eleni. Vivian and
Charles leave the reception. Nola takes The Food to Vanessa. Matt
does not want any. Vanessa tries it. "It's good. What's in it?"
"Guess." "I don't know." Does Matt want some? Maybe later.
Nola: "You don't know what you're missing." As coyly as possible
Matt replies, "Yes I do, I saw you make it." He wisks Van away.

Hawk is railing Alex as she comes in. "You're a cold-hearted woman
and you deserve to be alone." Alex takes The Food and dumps it on
Hawk's head.

Time for cake. Nadine wants Buzz to try The Food, but he doesn't
eat anything he can't pronounce. Matt & Van feed each other.

Bill moves to the microphone. "Ladies and Gentlemen...Ladies and
Gentlemen...YO!" He has their attention. "I have a toast to make
here. It is my duty as the best man to offer the toast." Thumbs
up from Josh. "First of all, I'd like to thank all of you for
coming to my mom's wedding. You look beautiful, Mom. Even though
I ruined the dress you wanted to wear." Dinah realizes her mother
told the truth. Most important, I want to thank Matt for coming into
our lives. Even though I haven't been nice to him all along, I
want to thank him for making my mom so happy. Please join me in 
wishing the bride and groom great joy and good health." Josh is
proud. Vanessa is moved. 

Van accuses Josh of helping Bill with the toast. He insists Bill
was on his own. He has some of The Food. Josh is happy for her.
They dance. Van wants him to find Annie.

WAIT UNTIL NOVEMBER
Rick and Annie pack up Clyde to leave. Reva thinks she should be
thinking of the patient and not herself. Alan says the doctors
can take care of the patient and he can take care of her. Alan
sweeps her into some bushes. Annie and Rick wheel Clyde out
to the chopper. Reva looks on.

THE RECEPTION
Alex tries The Food. Patrick doesn't want any. Matt interrupts Josh
and Van to dance. Love. Happiness. Blah. Blah.
Buzz thinks Nola needs a break to dance. They do. (hmmm...)
Patrick asks Gilly to dance.
Blake asks Fletch to dance but he doesn't want to. "Why do you look
so green?" "Don't know. Unless it's sympathetic morning sickness."
He puts down a half-eaten plate of The Food.

Vanessa wants to stop dancing she doesn't feel too well.
Marcus thanks Van. Van thanks Marcus for caring for Dinah. "C'mon,
Mom. you know I was just doing it for the money!" "No, I don't know
that. I saw your face. I saw how worried you were. Let me say
if you need anything, if you want anything, if I can help you
in any way, I will." 

Dinah can't find Roger. Blake doesn't know where he is--She wasn't
looking for him. Alex doesn't know either--she wasn't looking
for him. Dinah stomps off. AHA! Roger is with Peter secluded telling
him a story. Dinah eavesdrops. Peter wants mommy. "One day, you,
me, and your dad will all be together." He sees Dinah. Jet comes
and takes Peter away. "Tell Grandma and Grandpa goodbye!" (HAHAHA)
Rog thinks Jet's problem is that she lets other people think
for her. Dinah threatens to tell Van about Rog's search for Hart.
Go ahead, tell her. "But if you lose, me, you've got no one."

THE CORN HAS EARS
Lucy and A-M are in love. So what? Brent is getting dressed to go
out. He is still listening in on them. A-M forgot to give her
the ring. Now they are officially engaged. Brent adds a scarf.
Now the wig. Look out world!

OSH KOSH B'GOSHEN
Reva quizzes Alan about the nurse. Does she know me? What's her name?
No and Annie Dutton. Reva is upset. Alan tells her that her life is
here. Alan says he is staying in Goshen. 

TO LUCY FOO
"No one can touch us now," A-M says. Marian creeps out on the
pier.

DIONNE WARWICK, WHERE ARE YOU?
Vanessa tosses the bouquet. Nadine catches it. She admires the white 
roses of the bouquet. Eleni tells Gilly if there is a man in Nadine's
future she has been keeping it a secret. Matt & Van exit amidst
an attack of rose petals. Nadine closes her eyes sniffs the roses.
Creepy music comes in. She's seeing something again. She looks
down and the roses now have blood all over them. 

AMISH LOVE
Alan is making moves on Reva again. Reva refuses. Alan says they
are meant for each other and it will happen. Not because he wants
is, but because she does.

CEDARS
Rick and Annie deliver Clyde safely. They worked as a team.

RED RUM, RED RUM, RED RUM!
Nadine drops the bloody bouquet and starts screaming. Buzz rushes
over. Nadine is hysterical. She is trying to convince Buzz that the 
flowers were bloody. "Somebody's going to die, Buzz!" Nadine is
thoroughly upset because she can feel that it's true.

LOVE MARIAN NEWMAR
Lucy and A-M smooch. Marian on the dock. She takes out a switchblade
and flips it.. Overlay of Marian's evil eyes and the lovebirds.

THE END!

It's gettin' good.
