Dimitri: Oh, boy.
Dimitri: Alone again. So, Father, I -- boy, I have doubted you, defied you, cursed you. Why you chose to spare me is a mystery to me. All I -- all I can do is thank you. So, thank you for watching over me and for bringing me back home to Alex.

Edmund: I don't believe this.
Alex: Is that Hayley's mother?
Edmund: Mm-hmm. That's the mother of the bride and Adam's newest wife.
Alex: I think she's been over served.
Edmund: She's pretty toasted. Let's pray she doesn't want to propose one.

Arlene: Hey, everybody! This is my wedding day, too. I'm a bride, just like my baby.
Adam: Arlene, Arlene, you've made your point. Let's get the hell out of here.
Arlene: That's so typical of a man, rushing me off to the honeymoon bed.
Adam: Arlene, we're not going to do this.
Arlene: Oh, Sweetie, it's the millennium. Wives don't have to take orders from their husbands. I want to stay here and celebrate with my baby and her husband on the happiest day of my life. Sweetie, we can be a real family now.
Mateo: Why don't you back off, all right?
Arlene: Oh, Matt. I'm her mother. Come on.
Hayley: Please tell me this is a sick joke.
Arlene: No, it's not a joke. Look. Isn't it pretty?

Hayley: Listen to me I will forgive you. Just tell me you didn't marry my worst nightmare. Please.
Adam: Arlene and I were married this morning in Elk Green.
Liza: You liar!
Arlene: What's a girl to do to get a glass of champagne around here, huh?

Isabella: Who does she think she is?
Hayley: Mrs. Adam Chandler.
Isabella: Hayley, I'm sorry. I know she's your mother, but right now I want to slap her.
Rosa: Looks like you're going to have to wait in line.
Mateo: Guys, guys -- Mom, can you take Max home and Rosa home? Hey, buddy. I'll see you tomorrow morning, huh? We'll have some cake for breakfast. Yeah? All right. It's going to be ok.
Isabella: Hayley?
Hayley, Corazon, your wedding was beautiful. No one can ever take that away from you, ever. Dios te vendiga Corazon. Vamos. Vamos.
Mateo: Go, go, go. Hey, listen, she's right. Up until five minutes ago, this day was perfect, all right?

Arlene: Now, I know it's in here somewhere -- oh, here it is! The marriage certificate. See, sweetie? It's legal.
Mateo: I told you to back off.
Arlene: No, ok --

Hayley: Look at what she did.
Mateo: Honey, look at me. Look, look, I gave you my word that she wasn't going to ruin this day for us, all right? Hey, hey. I'm going to keep that promise, ok?

Arlene: Thank you, big boy. You know, if I weren't married, I would give you a little something for your trouble, but -- oh, what the hell. Here's one for the road.

[Arlene laughs]

Arlene: Mmm, mmm -- I always was a sucker for sweets.

Hayley: I love you for trying to fix this, but there is no way. There is no way.
Mateo: Prepare to be dazzled.

Brooke: Hayley, Mateo, I'm sorry. Is -- can I do anything?
Mateo: Can you keep an eye on Hayley for a second?
Brooke: Yes.
Mateo: Got to rearrange a few things.
Brooke: I won't take my eyes off her.
Mateo: Ok.
Brooke: Come. You've survived more than this.

Tina: What a witch!
Mateo: It's ok. We have to neutralize her now.
Adrian: Don't worry about it. We're onboard. What's your plan?
Mateo: She's not going to leave. That's clear, all right?

Liza: I have to talk to Adam. I have to find o why he did what he did.
Marian: Liza, isn't it obvious? Your ex-husband has sunk about as low as he can go.
Liza: Well, then there's nowhere else to go but up.
Marian: Liza, just leave this alone.
Liza: I will not!
Marian: Look, Adam has poisoned his life. Please don't let him poison yours.

Tad: Allow me to be the first to congratulate you.
Adam: Get the hell out of my --
Tad: That was a hell of a dog-and-pony show. You really have a knack for humiliating your loved ones, don't you?
Adam: Shut up!
Tad: You take a good look at your son? I mean, I know everybody in this room took a good look at Hayley. Did you see Junior?
Tad: He just asked if he could leave early for camp. I guess he doesn't want to spend the summer anywhere around you.
Adam: I swear I didn't know the reception was here.
Tad: Right.
Adam: It's the truth, damn it. I saw Hayley on television. She said that the wedding was at Wildwind.

Arlene: Tad, you want to kiss the bride?
Tad: No, thanks. I'm driving.
Arlene: Oh, come on. I'll ice your cake.
Tad: Get off me. If ever two people deserved each other, it's you two.

Arlene: Well, I -- I don't think that was a compliment, but you know, he's right. Oh, come on. Smile for the people, will you? I'm your happy ending.

Marian: Scott, I'm trying to get Liza to leave with me, but she refuses to go. I can't believe after everything that happens, that man still has a death grip on my daughter.
Scott: That's my Uncle Adam. He puts himself first. You know, you can hate him for it, but you always know where you stand. If my Dad had been just a little bit more like him, he'd still be alive.

Leo: Come on, Becca. This party's getting ugly. Let's get out of here before somebody gets a pie in the face.
Becca: I don't want to leave Scott.
Leo: Spielberg's got his hands full with his family right now, and I can totally sympathize with that. So just let me give you a ride home.

Marian: Scott, what are you thinking?
Scott: I'm thinking it's about time I learn something from my uncle.

Dixie: Hi.
Tad: Hi, sweetheart. Listen, Myrtle has very kindly offered to take Junior and Jamie home early.
Myrtle: It's firefly time and my yard is full of them, so we can just watch the light show.
Dixie: That sounds great.
Myrtle: Right?
Dixie: Do you want to go or do you want to stay?
Junior: I think I'll go.
Dixie: Ok.
Where's Jamie?
Tad: He's running around collecting swizzle sticks.
Myrtle: Ah. We'll track him down. We'll track him down.
Tad: Appreciate it.
Dixie: Thank you.
Myrtle: My pleasure.
Dixie: Hey -- see you later? Ok. All right.
Myrtle: Come on, darling. Here we go.
Dixie: Thanks, Myrtle.
Myrtle: Ok. You're welcome. Bye-bye.

Dixie: Well, maybe it's my turn to go have a little word with Adam, hmm?
Tad: I don't think you should waste your breath.

Arlene: Well, look at the well-watchers. They'll probably lob some grenades instead of birdseed.
Adam: Naturally. I wouldn't expect anything less.
Arlene: Well, that's why we got married, right? So the whole town could throw pitchforks at us.
Adam: You make a very charming bride of Frankenstein.
Arlene: Oh, Frankie. Give me a big, sloppy thank-you. Come on.
Adam: A thank-you for what? For destroying my daughter's wedding? For crashing her reception? This was not part of the plan, Arlene.
Arlene: You think that I wanted to destroy Hayley's wedding? Do you think that?
Adam: You just love stealing Hayley's thunder.
Arlene: Well, that's --
Adam: And I wouldn't be surprised if she ever speaks to either one of us again.
Arlene: Isn't that what you wanted?

Brooke: Hayley, let it go.
Hayley: No.
Mateo: You're going to --
Hayley: Yes.
Mateo: Let them have it, aren't you? Ok.

Hayley: Hello. This is the greatest day of my life so far cause of Mateo. I never knew that people like Mateo existed -- you know, someone I could love and trust, a real human being. I wasn't a believer because I grew up and I was taught that love was toxic. You showed me, Arlene, that love was filth and lies and drunken promises, and you taught me that love was something you use as a weapon to control and manipulate and hurt. But Mateo taught me that love was good and kind and caring. Love is complete and total surrender. But you wouldn't know that, neither one of you, because you're so afraid. You are so afraid you can't wean yourself off the bottle, and you can't give up control for a second because you are afraid that if you give yourself to someone -- like me -- well, then -- well, then you would lose something. But I say at if you can't love, if you don't know how to love completely and totally, then you're already lost. It almost makes me feel sorry for you. Almost.
Mateo: You ready to go?
Hayley: Mm-hmm.
Mateo: Come on. Come on.
Hey, everyone. Thank you so much, the ones who truly love us, for showing up. And who knows? 50 Years from now, Hayley and I might even look back on this day and -- no, we will look back on this day and have a lot of fond memories, and we might be able to actually taste our cake that time, so --

[laughter]

Jack: We love you guys.
Mateo: Thank you. I've got to go. I have a special surprise for my bride. I'd love for you guys to share it, but it's -- it's just for her, so -- thank you, guys. Stay, please. Try the fish. It's great.

[Music plays]

Hayley: Wait, the flowers.
Mateo: Oh, yes.
Hayley: Do the flower toss, you know, so, all the single ladies --
Brooke: All right.
Hayley: Come on, Liza, you, too. Come on, come on.
Opal: For Hayley --
Hayley: Please. Ready?
One, two -- fly!

[Cheers]

Mateo: Let's go.

Dimitri: My wife's favorite flower. How could I know that day she would change my life forever? I thought my life was over. But you had a different plan, didn't you? You sent Alex to save me. And even when we were torn apart, something inside of me knew that we'd survive and be together again. That was your will and now my pledge -- to keep Alex safe, to rebuild our lives and ensure that no one comes between us ever again.

Edmund: Saw the newlyweds off.
Alex: They're away. Good for them.
Edmund: Yeah. You all right?
Alex: Yeah. Well, you know, this was their wedding day and nothing should've spoiled it. I feel bad for Hayley.
Edmund: Hmm.
Alex: Sorry.
Edmund: Don't be sorry. You ready to go home?
Alex: Well -- no --
Edmund: Where do you want to go?
Alex: Would you go back to the chapel with me?

Becca: I am so sorry about what happened.
Scott: Oh. Oh, you mean my uncle and his fine new bride, huh? Yeah. Somebody ought to submit that to WRCW for "Wackiest Wedding Videos."
Becca: Well, you know, Leo offered me a ride home, and I think I'm going to take it because you should be here for your family, you know? So, call me later?
Scott: Yeah, sure. Good night.
Becca: Good night. I'm going to go find him.
Scott: OK
Scott: Hey. You guys want to score some overtime?
Busboy: Sure. <
br> Scott: Good. Busboy: Maybe.
Scott: There's a guy here. I'll point him out to you. Get rid of him for me. Come on.

Joe: We have another letter from Jake from Chechnya. He's enclosed a picture.
Gillian: Who's the little boy he's holding?
Joe: A little fellow who stepped on a land mine, lost a leg. I'll tell you, he's damn lucky to be alive.
Gillian: Jake saved his life?
Joe: Yep. You're married to a hero.

Tad: You think Junior's ok? Dixie: Would you be ok if your father married Arlene Vaughan?
Tad: I see your point. Summer camp will be a good thing.
Dixie: He's sure anxious to get there.
Tad: Until then we'll just have to stay real close.
Dixie: I guess that means I should postpone going back to work, huh?
Tad: Well, hey, that won't be too tough considering you haven't got a job to go back to yet.
Dixie: Well, actually, that's not really true.
Tad: What, you found something?
Dixie: Something -- something found me.
Tad: That's fantastic! Sweetheart, why didn't you say something? I'm proud of you.
Dixie: Yeah? You are?
Tad: Of course I am.
Dixie: Well, good, because I'll be starting this week at the hospital.
Tad: You're working for Dad?
Dixie: Oh. No. Same profession, different doctor. I'm working with Dr. Hayward.

Greenlee: You know what? This party is getting really lame. Let's go.
Ryan: Not yet.
Greenlee: Come on.
Ryan: Look, Greens, you told me to work the room. I'm working the room.

Leo: No, seriously. I'm flattered, but you guys aren't really my type, ok?
Busboy: Come on.

Man: Sir, it's really not necessary. I have everything --
Adam: I insist on paying for my daughter's reception. Here. And I'd assume she and her husband are going to be staying in the honeymoon suite.
Brooke: Your money is not any good here, Adam.
Arlene: Hmm. If it isn't little Miss High and Mighty.
Brooke: You think emptying out your wallet is going to cancel the fiasco that happened here today?
Adam: Just butt out, Brooke.
Brooke: You know what I think would be nice for your daughter? Cut the cord. Find a way to prove that you and your tanked-up bride here aren't really her parents.
Arlene: You know what? Would you just leave him alone? He's suffered enough already.
Adam: Shut up, Arlene.
Arlene: I'm just trying to help.
Adam: I don't want your help! You can both go to hell for all I care.
Arlene: You see what you've done? Now, if you'll excuse me, my husband is waiting to start the honeymoon.
Oh, Liza. Maybe you can give me some new tips for the new bride. You seem to know what he wants, or -- or maybe not. That's why you didn't last.
Liza: Arlene? When in doubt, say it with flowers.

[Liza throws the bridal bouquet she caught and hits Arlene in the head with it]

[Music plays]

Singer: Ooh, yeah

Hayley: You did it, my love, my husband. You saved our day.
Mateo: Yeah, well, you saved my life. The night I met you here, I fell in love for the first time, for the rest of my life.

Singer: Standing right where we are and we would dream far into the future and laugh about the past

Adam: Oh.
Arlene: Hey, lover. Aren't you going to carry me over the threshold?
Adam: Arlene, no, no. It's over. Our marriage -- it's a crazy idea from the start.
Arlene: Oh, no, it's not crazy. In fact, it's -- well, it's one of your better ones.
Adam: Oh.
Arlene: Yeah. Look at this. Look at this picture. Isn't it great? Hmm?

Adam's voice: What's keeping that guy?
Arlene: Well, he had to put his pants on. We can't get married by a man with wind whistling through his underwear, now, can we? Oh, Adam, ask for the deluxe wedding, ok? The bouquet, the wedding march, and the doves. I want two white doves to send into the sky right after the ceremony.
Adam: Life hasn't crapped on me enough? You want birds flying overhead?

[Arlene laughs]

Arlene: Oh, Grinchie. You just have pre-wedding jitters.
Adam: No, I just want to get this over with.
Arlene: You know, Adam, a wedding is not a fast-food drive-through. I got just the thing to calm your nerves.
Adam: Oh, no. No, thanks.
Arlene: All right. To us. How about it, huh? Music, bouquet? It's my wedding.
Adam: No, Arlene. This is an arrangement.
Arlene: No. It's fate. We made Hayley, and now, after all these years, we're going to vow to cherish and love and honor each other.
Adam: Oh, God will strike me dead for a liar. Arlene, listen to me. We are not star-crossed lovers here. I am marrying you for one reason -- to make my family hate me. You understand? It's like I'm putting up a sign that says, "Toxic Waste -- keep away." Now, once I'm declared a health hazard, I'll dump you, you can have your $500,000, and I hope you drink yourself to death.

Man: Well, well, well. Is the happy couple all ready?
Arlene: Yeah, come on in, Bub. Let's make it legal.
Justice of the peace: The bride usually stands on my right. Do you, Adam, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?
Adam: Yes.
Justice of the peace: And do you, Arlene, take this man --
Arlene: I do in every way.
Justice of the peace: Then by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. Ah-ah --
Adam: Let's get the hell out of here.
Arlene: Here.
Justice of the peace: Oh, yeah. Don't forget your license.
Arlene: We're going to live happily ever after. He just doesn't know it yet.

Arlene: Let the honeymoon begin.

[Music plays]

Singer: Again and again with family and friends

Hayley: You know, we met each other here about a zillion years ago. I was wearing a wedding dress. Different night, different dress. One big, brand-new life, all because we love each other so much.
Mateo: One memory really stands out, though.
Hayley: What memory is that?
Mateo: The one we're about to make.

[Music plays]

Tina: Thank you.
Adrian: Well, operation save-the-wedding was pulled off without a hitch. Hayley and Mateo should be dancing under the stars right about now.
Tina: Maybe the sea air will help them forget Adam and Arlene crashing the wedding.
Adrian: And if not, there's a surprise waiting for them at the condo.
Tina: So by the time tonight's over, those two won't have anything on their minds but each other. Cheers.

Tad: Ah. So, you got anything you want to tell me about this little gig you've got going with Dr. Hayward?
Dixie: Well, yes, as a matter of fact. He has offered me the job as being an administrative assistant to him at the Andrassy Foundation.
Tad: Ah. No experience necessary?
Dixie: Well, David thinks I can handle it. So do I.
Tad: Well, sure. I mean, let's face it -- you're intelligent, you know, and you're talented, and of course you get really high marks, you know, in the front office appearance department.
Dixie: Hmm.
Tad: And your back end's not so bad, either.
Dixie: Oh, my goodness. When will I be appreciated for my brain?
Tad: Never mind that. When were you going to tell me about this little fiasco -- on your way out the door Monday morning?
Dixie: You know what? That's exactly it. I was going to wait till you were elbow-deep in dishwater, and then I was going to run up to you, drop the bomb, smooch you, and run.
Tad: Har-de-har-har. Why didn't you tell me when he made the offer?
Dixie: Because we had a million things going on. We've had stuff and this wedding.
Tad: Oh, yeah, and you -- you didn't think it was worth it, you know, to mention it so we could discuss it? You know, talk about it?
Dixie: We're discussing it right now.
Tad: Mm-hmm. After you've accepted the job.
Dixie: Aren't you excited for me?
Tad: Honestly? Sweetheart, think about it. If it was anybody else's name on the bottom of the paycheck, you know, I would be ecstatic. I would be jumping through hoops right now. But working for him? That's like working for Dr. Jekyll.
Dixie: Dr. Jekyll was the good guy.
Tad: Oh --
Dixie: Ok? And David is not a monster. He's a good guy, and he saved my life.
Tad: Yeah, I know. He's a good doctor, but he's a lousy human being. How can you forget what he did to Gillian?
Dixie: Well, people change.
Tad: People, yes. Reptiles, no.
Dixie: Well, I seem to remember a time when you were Pine Valley's resident reptile. And ok how great you turned out.

Ryan: Some night, huh?
Gillian: I just hope wherever Hayley and Mateo are that they're only thinking about each other.
Ryan: They made it, Princess, and so will we. Can you meet me at the turret in an hour?
Gillian: I can try.
Ryan: Make it happen. I have to see you.
Gillian: What about Greenlee?
Ryan: Leave Greenlee to me.

Becca: Oh.
Scott: Becca.
Becca: Hi.
Scott: I thought Leo was taking you home.
Becca: I thought so, too. But I've looked everywhere for him, and it's like he's disappeared.
Scott: Hmm. Wish I could help you, but I haven't seen him.

Greenlee: Ahem -- ahem. No, no. Sorry. What did you two bruisers do with my friend? Hmm? Don't play dumb. I saw you drag Leo out of here. Tell me where he is, or I'll sic the manager on you. Oh, that's it? Fine. Kiss your paychecks good-bye.

[Bus boys grab Greenlee and lock her in the wine cellar with Leo]

Leo: Hey! Somebody open the door! If you're not going to give me the key, at least give me a bottle opener!

Greenlee: Oh! Ow, ow!
Busboy: Easy money.

Alex: How I wanted to come back here.
Edmund: Yeah? What do you like about this place?
Alex: Oh, I love it. I don't know. Something drew me back here.
Edmund: Would you like to be alone?
Alex: No, no, no. Stay with me. Yeah.
Edmund: This is nice. We own the joint now.
Alex: No. No, he does.
Edmund: You're right.
Edmund: You know, we watched two people we love today beat the odds --
Alex: Mm-hmm.
Edmund: And get married.
Alex: Yeah.
Edmund: We beat the odds, too, you know. You and me.
Alex: Yeah.
Edmund: I think we're heading in the right direction. I think this is why we survived. I think this was worth almost dying for. It's our turn.

Tad: How could you equate me with David Hayward? That is a complete insult. I am nothing like him.
Dixie: I know that, honey. I think you're missing the point.
Tad: Well, what is the point?
Dixie: Do we have to discuss this now? You know, I'm kind of tired and it's really late. I just want to pick up the boys and go home.
Tad: Ok.
Dixie: Ok?
Tad: Ok.
Dixie: I'm going to go get my stuff and I'll meet you out front. Ok?
Tad: This is not good. This is not good at all.

Joe: Gillian, Ruth is off duty. She's got a roast in the oven. She wants me to bring you home for dinner.
Gillian: Oh, thank you, Joe, but I think I should go back to Wildwind.
Joe: Wait, wait. You do look a little flushed. Are you not feeling well?
Gillian: Actually, I do feel a little warm.
Joe: Mm-hmm. Yes, I think, you know, you might be running a slight fever. Well, that settles it. I mean, Ruth would never forgive me.
Gillian: No, it's really nothing.
Joe: No, no, we got to be on the safe side. I'm going to bring you home for dinner, doctor's orders. You come along.

Opal: Well, I've had it. I think I'm going to head home.
Marian: Ok. Look, darling, I don't feel like going home just yet because it's so lonely there without Stuart.
Opal: Oh, boy. Do I know what you mean. I mean, of course, Petey's at home, but he'll be asleep, and the idea of wandering around that empty apartment all by myself after a night like this doesn't sound like much fun to me.
Marian: Well, why don't we have a couple of martinis, my treat, huh?
Opal: I think that's a fine idea.
Marian: Great. Grab us a couple of seats at the bar. I'll be right back.
Opal: I'll see you in there.
Marian: You got it. Oh, Scott -- excuse me. What are your plans for this evening?
Scott: Well, I'd really like to spend some time with Becca, but Ryan's been working overtime a lot in the loft, so --
Marian: Well, why don't you use the gatehouse? I'm not going to be home till very late.
Scott: Thank you. You're the best.
Marian: Oh, not at all. Listen, by the way -- you didn't take me seriously, did you, when I told you you could learn a lesson from your Uncle Adam?
Scott: No, that was crazy talk.
Marian: Ok, great. All right. Have a good night.
Scott: All right.
Marian: Bye, darling.
Scott: Bye-bye.

Scott: So, everything go ok?
Busboy: You got what you paid for.
Second busboy: Your friend is locked up tight for the night.
Scott: Thank you.

Greenlee: Help, anybody! Let us out!
Leo: Save your pipes, Greens. Nobody's going to hear you scream. Look what I found.
Greenlee: Leo, I have to get out of here.
Leo: Yeah, me, too. But neither one of us are getting out of here till somebody orders a bottle of Encore Du Vin or our mystery captor decides to let us go. So you're stuck with me, Greens, and the cabbies and the merlots.
Greenlee: This is all your fault.
Leo: Why? I'm just the innocent victim.
Greenlee: Ryan is waiting for me. This is the thanks I get for coming to get you?
Leo: Would you quit your whining? We're both stuck in here together, ok?
Greenlee: No, no. I am not going to sit in here all night with you. Ow! Ow, ow.
Leo: Face it, Greens -- you're out of control because you're not in control. Come on, enjoy some fruit of the vine.
Leo: Hey, whoa, whoa. Go easy. The night's still young.

Mateo: You know, when I was a kid, my dad used to take us down to the gulf coast. And I used to sit there at the edge of the water. I would just stare out. You know, I didn't know what I was looking for until I met you.
Hayley: Oh! Mateo, a shooting star.
Mateo: Saw it.
Hayley: Did you see it?
Mateo: Yeah, yeah, I saw it.
Hayley: Make a wish.
Mateo: You make one for us.
Hayley: I wish that we were home in bed, making love as husband and wife.
Mateo: Your wish is my command. Come on. You have the keys?
Hayley: You have the keys.
Mateo: The keys, ok.

Arlene: Ready to consummate the wedding vows?

[Liza storms into Adams's bedroom]

Alex: What?
Edmund: I love you, Alex, with all of my heart.
Alex: Oh, I love you, too, Edmund.

[Dimitri is watching Alex and Edmund]


ON THE NEXT - - - ALL MY CHIIDREN

Ryan: Well, was it a good year?

Liza: Look me in the eye and tell me you don't love me.

Edmund: Alex, I love you more every minute.
[Noise]
Alex: What was that?
