Robert and Anna's Rehearsal Dinner
Sean (on stage, holding mike): "You know, both of these two people I've been through many adventures with them- we've loved, we've hate, we've made up, and now their going to be my neighbors. And I'm very happy for that. So, happy day tomorrow." (everyone claps and cheers. Sean gets off stage, goes over to shake Robert's hand and kisses Anna, then sits back down with Tiffany).
Mac (on stage): "Thank you, Sean, thank you very much." (to the audience) "Hope you're all having a good time. I believe Robin has something to say right about now."
(Anna and Robert look at her shocked while Robin looks nervous as she takes to the stage and gets the mike from Mac.) Anna (groans loudly): "Oh no." (everyone's clapping loudly and laughing. Anna lays her head on Robert's shoulder) "What's she gonna say?"
Robert: "Maybe she wants a raise in her allowance."
Robin: "Hello everybody.
Audience: "Hi!"
Robin: "Hi. Okay, well, um, some rules and regulations newlyweds should follow in the '90s, and guess what, I have some here." (she pulls a list out of her pocket, while everyone laughs).
Robert (smiling, to Anna who's cringing): "She just happen to have some." (everyone laughs more, Anna puts a hand over her eyes, afraid of what Robin's about to say)
Robin: "Rule #1, once they are married, they must never leave town chased by the police again." (more laughter)
Anna (laughs): "Okay."
Robert (laughing too, says to Anna): "We can do that."
Robin: "Rule #2, they must always remain interesting and exciting so I have good stories to tell my friends at school." (more laughter)
Anna (laughing): "Oh."
Robin: "Rule #3, if and when they ever decide to add a brother or sister to the family, they have to consult me on a name." (Everyone oohs and aahs and laughs hard. Anna looks completely shocked, like the idea of another child never occurred to her, and Robert turns to her grinning madly) "And now, fourth and final rule- they must promise to listen carefully to their wedding vows tomorrow, especially the part that says 'to love, honor, and cherish till death do us part'." (everyone oohs and ahhs more, and her parents clap. Robin hands the mike to Mac, gets off stage, and goes over to kiss her parents)
Mac: "Thank you, Robin. It was very lovely, very lovely." (to the audience) "If you all would raise your glasses, I would like to propose a toast to Robert and Anna." (again to the audience, to prompt them to get up with raised glasses) "Thank you very much for standing. Robert and Anna, may the love that you have for each other today be more than your yesterdays and less than your tomorrows. I love you brother." (everyone claps) "All right, we have some more... oh, excuse me for screaming into the microphone" (he apologizing for talking too loud. Meawhile, Robert's getting up to go to the stage, and Anna fails in grabbing his hand to stop him.) "But we have some more entertainment coming up. Connor, I understand..." (Robert's on stage and interrupts Mac, reaching for the mike) "No, no, we don't.. That's right.. he (referring to Robert) wants to say some things."
(Robert mutters something) Mac: "I know, I got a little carried away."
Robert (taking the mike): "Well, it would be easy for me to say this is the happiest day of my life, but I'm not gonna. As I look around here at my friends... my enemies... my family... the woman who has a lock on my heart, I'm gonna say this is the second happiest day of my life." (Anna's staring intently at Robert)
Mac: "And what would be the first?"
Robert (smiles): "I was waiting for you to ask me that. That's tomorrow, when I seal the deal, bro." (the two clasp each other on the back, while everyone claps)
Mac: "Good luck to you." (Robert goes back to his table, holds Anna's hand, and kisses her while everyone looks on) "Thought we had one more little surprise."
Robert (still holding Anna's hand): "More?"
Mac (to Robert and Anna, referring to the surprise): "Something myself and Connor had prepared especially for you. C'mon up here, Connor."
Connor (taking the mike): "Uh, the name of the song is 'Now That You're Here,' and I can only hope that it is worthy of your love. Mac, if you'll hit the video button, it goes something like this....."
Connor then performs his song while everyone looks on. Later, while dancing with Robert, Anna's visibly shaken when she spots a red orchid, like the one mysteriously delivered to her earlier that day, sitting on one of the tables.
