"I had him anyway." "Uh..." "However..." "On the other hand," "I guess I would have deserved it if he had belted me all over the place, huh?" "Bart..." "[ Sighs ]" "How'd you know?" "About what?" "About Wendy and the scholarship." "How'd you know?" "Because when you win a scholarship, they notify you two weeks after you've taken the test, not two days before the term starts!" "That's how I know!" "Bart..." "Youwonthescholarship, didn't you?" "Why didn't you say something?" "I guess I..." "Decided to go to city." "Because you thought Wendy was going there, right?" "Well, yeah!" "[ Sighs ]" "Let's go home..." "All of us." "Dad?" "I wanted you to be the first to see." "Wendy..." "Ah, you look like a dream, honey." "You don't look so bad yourself." "For an old man, I'll hold up." "We'd better get going." "Mom's left already." "I'm waiting just for you." "Dad, we're going to be late!" "Don't worry, honey." "It's fashionable for the bride to be a few minutes late on her wedding day." "It's 10 minutes after already!" "Bart will be going crazy!" "Get us to the church as fast as you can." "Yes, sir." "[ Tires screech ]" "Stanley!" "Not today!" "What are you doing parked in the middle of the street?" "!" "What are you doin' driving' so fast?" "!" "All right, we can straighten this out later, but now we have to get to the church." "We can't go any further right now." "Oh!" "Don't worry, Wendy." "I'll get you to the wedding." "Thanks, Stanley." "You don't think we're goin' to the church in that thing, do you?" "!" "We don't have any choice!" "We're late already!" "I guess we have to." "Mr. mccready, you can't ride in the front." "Why not?" "We can't all fit." "Roly poly's in the front." "We can't put him in the back." "He'll eat the stuff." "The dog sits in front, and I sit in back?" "You wouldn't want Wendy to, would ya?" "No, I wouldn't want Wendy to!" "Let's just go!" "Don't slam..." "The door." "What's the matter?" "Nothin', I hope." "[ Indistinct conversations ]" "What could be keeping them?" "Oh, reverend, I don't know what happened." "They left the house more than 30 minutes ago!" "All I know is I've got another wedding scheduled in five minutes." "They'll be here, reverend." "They'd better be." "I don't know what it is with you people!" "You never seem able to get yourselves organized!" "I'm sure that something terrible has happened, or mccready would have been here on time." "What's that?" "Haven't I seen your picture somewhere, Sonny?" "Dad, are you all right?" "Splendid, honey." "Everything's just fine." "That's good." "It sure is an honor driving you to your wedding." "Thank you, Stanley." "Excuse me." "Don't get me wrong." "I'm sure this is no fault of yours." "It's just that my Saturdays are hard enough without this sort of thing happening." "Ah, thank heavens." "Here they are now." "Ohh!" "Ohh!" "Ohh!" "Ohh!" "That's not my daughter!" "It's the bride from the next service!" "Nothing like this has ever happened before!" "I don't know how to explain this!" "Here she is now!" "She came in a delicatessen truck?" "At least she got here." "Let's everybody get moving into the church!" "Places!" "Places!" "Places!" "Oh, here." "Everybody, move!" "Hey, get me out of here!" "The door's stuck, and the father of the bride's in there." "Out of my way, Sonny!" "I'll get him out!" "Out of my way!" "Mrs. mccready, what's happening now?" "!" "My husband's stuck in the truck!" "Stuck in the truck?" "!" "I got him sprung now, honey!" "Can we get things goin' then, please?" "!" "Right away!" "Here we go!" "¶ LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA ¶ oh, darling!" "You made it!"
