"Am I not the luckiest bastard on earth?" "Aw!" "Well, I'll dance to that." " Oh!" " Oh, Jesus!" "That's what he gets for not taking dance lessons until two days before the wedding." "Who's ever heard of dance lessons for a wedding?" "Just about everyone." "You are taking the piss?" "We'll go with you." "I don't even know you, hunky dunky, and I love you already." "Dance lessons?" "Hm." "Right." " Hey." " Oh." "Hello." "Weddings are a celebration of love and commitment... in Utopia." "In the real world they're an excuse to drink excessively and say things you shouldn't." " A philosopher, huh?" " Well, shrink." " Crikey!" " What?" " No, nothing." " No, tell me." "Well, you Yanks and your therapy, it's a load of touchy-feely mumbo jumbo." "Spilling your guts to a total stranger, it's not natural." "Oh, God." "It's just..."

" Don't be silly." " What?" "I am not as small-town as my daughter seems to think." "Sorry about this." "I went through a painfully earnest floral phase." "Air Supply?" "Oh." "My parents had a German exchange student a few years back." "He must have left it here." "Everyone knows their greatest hits." "Some of their lesser-known ballads are surprisingly poignant." "Is that an old habit from ballet class or from a lifetime of walking on eggshells?" "I never took ballet." "How'd you know that was me?" "I have a friend at the magazine." "So much for anonymity." "Go ahead, take a look." "It's part of the package." "I'm sorry, I'm just a little nervous." "I never thought anything like this could happen to me." "This happened to you?"

"So as an adult, I needed to find ways to experience intimacy and sex" " but with rules that couldn't be violated." " Wow." "I'm just screwing with you." "You shit." "OK, this part." "You say, and I quote," ""Every woman has the exact love life she wants. "" "That seems a broad generalization..." "Oh!" "Oh." "Do you honestly believe that I want to be single and miserable?" "Do you think that I want to be hung up on some guy who led me on for years and out of the blue shattered my heart?" "First of all, there's no such thing as out of the blue." "And second of all, yeah." " What?" " When you're ready to let go, to be un-single and un-miserable, you will." "Till then..." "So when you were talking to Jeffrey before, how did he sound?" "Like a harmless, self-absorbed toolbox." "Seriously." "He sounded tormented." "Tormented?" "How?" "Like he's... jealous that I'm here with someone else, or like... he regrets throwing away our life together?" "It's just that... this hasn't really turned out the way that I thought it would." "Hey, Nick." "Oh-oh-oh!" "He seems more mature." "Run, you fat tart!" "Come on." "§ Shoo be do be do be do be do wop wop, shoo be do be do be do be do wop wop §" "Come on, throw it." "Throw it!"

"Have you smelt him?" "He smells lovely!" "Can you believe Kat gets to shag this guy?" "No, really, you should send God a bottle of wine or a quiche or something." "Look at those buns." "Fresh from the bakery." "It must feel great getting paid just for being you." " Who says I'm being me?" " Excuse me." "Amy, thank you for granting me a rare glimpse into a timeless female ritual." "Here's to the husbands who've won you, the losers who've lost you and the lucky bastards who've yet to meet you." "And to the cock in the henhouse." "I can't believe you found him first." "I am so depressed." "Will somebody buy my hoo-hah a drink?" "You remember when we took the girls hiking in the Lake District?" " No." " You do!" "Blistering heat in the morning, rained all afternoon." "No." "You backed your car over a copper's bicycle." " Sorry, no." " The Rat And Gherkin." " Splendid local scrumpy." " Mm." "Amy wore that little bikini thing." "But somehow it was Kat that got stung by nettles." "Kat never said a word until Amy caught her scratching her arse." "Then you rubbed it with a dock leaf to bring down the swelling." "Yeah, I remember it." "I didn't deserve her back then." "And you do now?" "What is his problem?" " What?" " There's something about him I don't like." "He's less than 90 per cent body fat and he's shagging your ex." "No, that is not it."

"But I need to ask you something." "What happened last night?" "Nothing." "Thanks." " Is this for last night?" " No!" "How could it be?" "Nothing happened." "If I was gonna charge you, I said I'd tell you first." "I didn't want you to think that I was expecting anything for free or that I was expecting anything at all." "I mean, obviously I was expecting something or else I wouldn't have stopped at that ATM." "Just so you know, you're 300 short." "Wait, you're telling me that if something happened last night," "I'd have to pay you $1,700?" "That's a down payment on a Ford Focus." "Not dollars, pounds." "Besides, it includes, you know..." "That's the extra 300." "Are you a boatsman, son?" "I am now, sir." "I'm glad someone's making use of her at last." "The boat, I mean." ""To defile. " Four letters." " Good morning, Daddy." " Ah." " What if I didn't want you to do that to me?" " The 300's for you doing it to me." "If anything had happened, it would have been one of the highlights, for you." " But nothing did."

"Not that I'm ever going to find out." "Give me that!" " Come on!" " No, no!" " Don't!" " Come on!" "You seem to have a way with women." "Why don't you go and rustle up the bride?" "Get her to join the party." "Why are you bringing this up now?" "I love Ed." " What do you want from me?" " I want you to tell me..." "Blue shirt or... white shirt for the, er, rehearsal dinner?" "Sorry to interrupt." "Your dad sent me." "What for?" "To make sure you're OK." "Kat, could I have a word?" "It'll only take a moment." "Let me think." "You stole seven years of her life with your bullshit and your charm and now you'd like just a moment?" "Sure." "Go right ahead." "Thanks for the solidarity, Mum, but next time a little less information." "Do you believe a place has a memory?" "Even before Ed and I started dating, we all used to come up here in the summer and spend weekends." "God, I hope it doesn't remember everything." "No matter how certain one is of one's position of what one should or shouldn't do, one sometimes discovers that one is not as one would have hoped one would have been." " What exactly are you trying to say?" " I'm sorry." "Look, I feel like I need to tell you something." " You're not even listening." " I'm sorry." "I'll be back in a minute." "Hey, is everything OK?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Anchovy, Nick?" "I remember the day I met Kat." "It was in New York." "I'd been seeing Bunny for a few months and she finally trusted me enough to meet her kid." "So I'm over at her place and in walks this little monster." "That was it." "I was a goner." "That was the day I became a dad." "You know, Nick, you think it's going to get easier as they get older, that you're going to worry about them less." "Or that you're going to trust the world more." "But that's just not how it happens." "This may not make much sense to you, sir, but I'd like to ask your permission to date your daughter." "I thought you already were." " I blame..." "I blame Tony Peepants." " No." "Let's have the story." "Kat, come on." " No." " I have to initiate Nick into our family." "I blame Tony for why my two girls just don't seem to be able to get along." "Don't deny it." "You barely tolerate each other." "Come on." "It's true." "The only thing you've got in common is you're both attracted to me." "It started after we moved here." "My two girls got into a fight over Tony Peepants and have never made up since." "Apparently, Kat and I were inseparable." "If Kat ate a banana, Amy threw it up." "If Amy threw it up, Kat ate it." "So we were eating and throwing up together in harmony until Tony walked me home from school one day." "He was my first boyfriend." "Tony ignored Kat because he wanted to play with me." "Anyway, the point of the story is that Tony ended up with a chair in his face." "It was plastic and child-sized." " As I recall, there were stitches involved." " Come on, Bunny, 15 stitches." "So is that when he peed in his pants?" "He cried a lot, but there was no peeing." "So what's with the nickname?" "I have absolutely no idea." "Let me get some more wine." "Would you marry me if I asked?" "That was a yes." "Did you see that?" "And you know, I thought perhaps you..." "Bollocks." "Sorry." "I had no idea this would be so difficult." "I just feel like I owe you an explanation." "Relax, relax." "It's fine." "I promise." "And I should probably admit that..." "I brought Nick with me to torture you, slowly, for the entire weekend." "But then, I don't know, something happened and now..." "I hope this doesn't hurt your feelings but I'm just sick of you and me." "Of our whole story, so come on, let's just go upstairs and eat some tiramisu." "I slept with your sister." " I'm sorry?" " Well, I shagged Amy, two years ago." "That's why I broke it off with you." "And then after you left, sod it, we kept at it like rabbits, until we both realized it was absolutely mad and, obviously, morally wrong." "And then that was it." "But last Christmas, when Ed proposed," "I realized..." "I'm in love with her." "Good Lord, say something, please." "Oh, my God, he's told you, hasn't he?" " You knew?" " Kat, I'm so sorry." "I'm so..." "Kat." "Kat, please." "Kat, please don't say anything." "I can't believe you told her." "What's going on?" "Nothing." "It doesn't look like nothing." "Now is not the time to catch on, Ed." "OK." "Good." "Leave me alone." "You knew and you didn't tell me." " Wait up." " I can't believe I trusted you." "Come on." "You've got to stop running." " How could you not have told me?" " What did you expect me to say?" "You let me make a fool of myself." "You lied to me, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised because that's what you do." "That's who you are." "You're a liar." "You're judging me?" "That's a good one." "You're going to point a finger at me, the guy that you hired to pretend to be your boyfriend?" "You're right." "I was so desperate to make everyone believe that I was happy that I paid $6,000 for a lie." "And, at the end of the day, the only one who ended up falling for it was me." "I wish I could say it was worth it." "Go ahead, Kat, hate me." "I think you're running out of steam on this whole Jeffrey thing anyhow." "Maybe now you'll be able to hold on to this long enough to ruin your next relationship." " Nick." " I'm just checking into a hotel." "Don't be ridiculous." "It's late." "Take the car." "Actually, the boathouse is empty." "Look, I don't know what's going on with you two but I'm sure you'll work it out." "You couldn't be more perfect if she'd picked you out of a catalog." "Thanks, Ed." "Hey." "Hey." "I just..." "I wanted to say thank you for not outing me in front of Ed." "I want to tell him, just not the night before our wedding." "You know, with these things, timing is everything." "You're right." "You should time it right, so that when he hears that you repeatedly screwed his best friend, he won't feel like the world is collapsing and there's no escape because you tricked him into marrying you." " Kat..." " Don't worry." "Your wedding will be perfect." "Tomorrow I'll say all the right things and you'll deal with Ed when you're ready." "But right now, tonight, I'm not going to pretend it's OK." "And that's your first flight out?" "§ Another summer day has come and gone away §" " All right, thanks." " § In Paris and Rome" "§ I wanna go home" "§ Mmm" "§ Another aeroplane, another sunny place" "§ I'm lucky, I know" "§ But I wanna go home" "§ Mm, I've got to go home" "§ And I feel just like I'm living... §" " I'm OK." " § Someone else's life" "§ It's like I just stepped outside... §" "I don't believe you." "I'm fine, really." "Nothing a bottle of Jack and a straight razor couldn't fix." "Anyway, it doesn't matter." "It's Amy's day." "Get in the car, darling." "No, no." "Smile." "Hello." "I've been looking for you." "So, why did you let him go?" " It's complicated, Dad." " Right." "It probably wouldn't have worked out anyway, huh?" "I remember reading a fascinating article in the New York Times Magazine once, where this guy said," ""Every woman has the exact love life she wants. "" "You know what?" "I agree with him." "But I refuse to believe that this is what you want, Kat." "Ever since you were little, you've always worried about what other people think." "Now, come on." "What do you think?" "Is he the guy for you?" "Then go and get him." "Hello, darling." "Your mother said you wanted to have a quick word." "No, no, no, I..." "There's something you should know before you marry me." "What is it?" "I wanted to tell you but I was afraid you'd never forgive me and I just..." "I love you so much." "I'm sorry." "I knew you were seeing someone else when we finally got together, but not Jeffrey." "Does Kat know?" "Jeffrey told her last night." "Excuse me." "Ed?" "Ed..." "Calm down, Ed." "Ed!" "TJ!" "Ah!" "Ed, calm down!" "It's all sorted!" "She wants you!" "I've given up!" "What's the problem?" "You back-stabbing weaseI!" "That's not fair." "It was before you guys were even dating." "But you were engaged to her sister." "Ed, calm down!" "We can talk about this like civilized human beings." "I look like a total wanker, don't I?" "Yeah, kind of." "Get in the car, Ed." "He's halfway to France by now." "Whoa!" "I trust you've enjoyed your trip to England." "Yeah, it was fantastic." "Thanks, Eddie." "You know, I felt sorry for you last night." "I was just sitting there like some smug arse, thinking, "Aren't I a lucky sod?"" "I forgave her when I thought it was just some random bloke." "But not Jeffrey." "I've had her up on a pedestal ever since... ever since I put her up there." "What a mess I've made, huh?" "I'm so sorry." "The hardest thing's loving someone and then having the courage to let them love you back." "But if you know her shit and she knows yours and at the end of the day, you still would rather give up than try... nothing's ever gonna be worth it." "Maybe think about it this way." "You go back, you get to spend the rest of your life having really great makeup sex." " Ed?" " Must run!" "Hi." "Hi." "Last night, when we were fighting, I thought this was over." "And I was going to leave you alone and just take off but..." "Then I realized I'd rather fight with you than make love with anyone else." " I should get going." " What?" "No, you can't." "I have to." "I'm the best man." "§ You can dance every dance with the guy who gives you the eye" "§ Let him hold you tight" "§ And you can smile every smile for the man who held your hand" "§ Beneath the pale moonlight" "§ But don't forget who's taking you home" "§ And in whose arms you're gonna be" "§ So darling, save the last dance for me" "§ Oh, I know that the music's fine like sparkling wine" "§ Go and have your fun" "§ Laugh and sing... §" " Let's do it."
