Summaries

  • A bride and groom are all set to get married, but they can't until the bumbling best man shows up. With all the havoc he causes, they'd have been better off had he missed the whole thing.
  • A bride and groom are all set to get married, but they can't until the best man shows up. When the best man eventually shows up, he causes a few problems since he ran through some tar just before entering the church. The groom doesn't seem to mind, just as long as the best man brought the ring, which he did. But as the wedding proceeds, that sticky tar just can't help but get the best man into one disastrous incident after another, including with the ring. That havoc, which leads into the reception, the wedding night, and the honeymoon send-off, could end the marriage even before it begins... or at least the couple's friendship with their best man.—Huggo
  • At a fashionable wedding, the groom is nervous and Billy, the best man, is late. He arrives, tar on the soles of his shoes, messes up the carpet, gets tar on his fingers, tries to straighten the groom's tie, and loses the ring, which gets stuck on the heel of a female guest's shoe. At the reception, Billy causes more bedlam, bringing castor oil to the groom and starting a fire in the bridal bedchamber. Billy finds every disaster funny. The next morning, he volunteers to drive to the station--a newlywed couple who aren't speaking to each other. Billy gets a flat tire, stops on trolley tracks, and upends a policeman who tries to help. Can this marriage be saved?—<jhailey@hotmail.com>
