Q

If he was going to Rob a Bank, Marvin, don’t you think you to know that before going in

A

Yes, I believe I would have. I’d like to do my homework.

18
Q

All right, all right! So I made a mistake! Kill me already. What do you do with your dog, big shot?

A

Well, as you know, the model of this couch is be prepared.

19
Q

He don’t know that.

A

So back when I used to deliver the mail, I made sure I was prepared for anything, especially dogs. One time, I’m going to the Rams yard, I see Damien there, I me up as usual, but this time there’s something different. He’s a lot closer to me than usual. And then I realized, he’s not on the chain. And he’s looking me over real good. He’s looking at me and seeing a tasty mailman sandwich.

20
Q

Shut up. So what happened with the big dog

A

Well, he can see the gate is closed behind me, and there’s no way I’m making it over the fence.

21
Q

So what did you do, baby?

A

I quickly assess the situation and realize it doesn’t look good. But I’m not worried because I prepared for just this moment.

22
Q

That’s my Marvin

A

So just before he lunges at me, I reach into my shirt, pull out my emergency, postal whistle and blow!

I blow with every breath in my body as birds scatter, cars veer off the road, and all Damien sees stars. He runs whimpering under the porch, that’s all I can see her as a big white, frightened eyes. That I deliver my mail to the front door, say hello to Mrs. Ramsey, remind her to tie Damien back up and make my way out of the yard. 

23
Q

Goodbye, get out of here, don’t let the door hit your sorry ass on the way out!

A

Oh brother.

Blow whistle

All right! Now everybody just stop right where you are! 

24
Q

What the frig!

What are you doing, Marvin? 

A

Fiona, as much as I’d love to see him walk out of our lives, forever, I can’t let you end this way.

25
Q

Why not?

Yeah, why the hell not? 

A

Because first, she doesn’t hate you, in spite of all the lousy things you’ve done over the years. In fact, she loves you. Yeah. Until me, you were the only person who ever really cared about her, even if it was in a highly unstable, and often precarious way. And I could tell, even when she told me the bad stories about you, she missed you a lot.

And Fiona, fist didn’t come here today to be Rachel or to marry you. He came today to tell you that he’s sorry about everything that has happened, and that he misses you and need you as a friend. U2 matter more to each other than you know, and it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see it. This is right, you do have ties that can’t be broken. They may be crazy, but my conscience will not allow me to stand here and watch you two just do it all away. 

26
Q

So… You love Fiona, enough that you’re willing to help me in your life

A

Apparently so.

27
Q

I must’ve missed something. Does that mean we’re back to having you to get married?

A

It sure does. Is the minister — ready?

28
Q

What should we do? Marvin?

A

Go out the back! Out the back!

29
Q

Put down your weapons and come out, fist. No one has to get hurt here

A

They think you’re armed. They could buy us a few minutes. How fast can you marry us?

30
Q

Well, see, here’s the thing… We’ve had a setback. I didn’t realize he was spiking the coffee I was giving him. I’m sorry

A

Well, this is just great. Of all the wedding chapels we could’ve picked —

31
Q

Thank God, you picked mine! This is been fabulous!

What’s the problem? 

A

We don’t have a minister! And unless you’re a minister, this isn’t going to happen!

32
Q

Well, it is your lucky day? Because I am

A

And what?

33
Q

It was hubcaps idea. Some scheme he was working on, he said we needed a minister to make it work, so… Hell, I have the time.

A

Are you for real about this? You’re really a —

34
Q

Bride, here. Groom, here. Reverend fish, right here. Let’s go, let’s go!

A

This day is not exactly working out the way I planned.

35
Q

Are you disappointed

A

How could I be? I’m marrying you

36
Q

.… Protect her from all the scumbags in the world and do a better job of looking out for her than I did?

A

I will.

37
Q

How about you? You can read all that?

A

Yes, yes! For as long as we both shall live. Yes.

38
Q

Congratulations congratulations

Boy, you two are gonna have one great wedding story to tell your kids, ha 

A

And anybody else who wants to listen!

39
Q

Well, all you have to do now is sign the certificate and it’s official.

A

You first, Mrs. marvel.

40
Q

I wish you kids good luck, but you don’t need it

A

Why not?

41
Q

Because I can tell — you’ve got the real thing.

A

I guess working at a wedding chapel you see it all the time, huh?

42
Q

Hardly ever, Marvin.

(Hugs )

Oh! Thank you, Sandy. Will miss you! 

A

Thanks, Sandy! Bye!
