LIONEL: I’m willing to help you. But marriage? Isn’t that asking a lot?

A

Ok. Let’s forget all of them for a minute and do it ourselves.

Q

LIONEL: Here. (HANDS MAY THE RING)

A

With this ring, I thee wed, to have and to hold, from this day forth till death do us part.

Mrs Lionel Stark. I like that.

17
Q

LIONEL: I just want to know what this is all about.

A

I just couldn’t stand it anymore! It was time to take some positive action.

18
Q

LIONEL: Stand what?

A

Being single.

I wouldn’t mind being an old maid if I were older, but right now, in these awful middle years, it’s like I don’t know who I am or what I’m doing! But the BTP put a lot of things into focus for me.

19
Q

LIONEL: The BTP?

A

Bridal Terrorism Party.

20
Q

MAY: Bridal Terrorism Party.
LIONEL: I don’t understand.

A

There was this study a couple of years ago that said a woman over the age of thirty-five would more likely be the victim of a terrorist attack than get married. The BTP was formed to make that report false. There is an eighty-seven percent success rate in BTP marriages.

21
Q

MAY: … success rate in BTP marriages.
LIONEL: Really?

A

Really. In the orientation program, we’re trained to spot certain characteristics that are ideal in a husband.

22
Q

MAY: … characteristics that are ideal in a husband.
LIONEL: Like?

A

… I’m not at liberty to say. But rest assured, we don’t just settle – we choose our victims carefully.

23
Q

LIONEL: But maybe instead of picking out someone you don’t know, you might have met someone who you connected with?

A

It hasn’t happened yet.

24
Q

MAY: It hasn’t happened yet.
LIONEL: Ever?

A

Oh, a few close calls along the way, but I like this idea better.

25
Q

LIONEL: But marriage?

A

It’ll help me put my life into focus! Desperate times call for desperate action.

26
Q

LIONEL: I see. And marrying me will help?

A

It just might.

27
Q

LIONEL: I suppose I should give it time.

A

It’s always important to give new things a chance.

28
Q

MAY: It’s always important to give new things a chance.
LIONEL: Right.

A

So… marriage will be new to both of us, right?

We’ll be starting our life together! Where do we live?

29
Q

MAY: Where do we live?
LIONEL: We??

A

Yes, where do we live?

30
Q

LIONEL: Well, I’ll tell you quite frankly I’m not inclined to go along with this.

A

I see.

31
Q

LIONEL: I think that I’m just going to walk away from here, ok?

A

I don’t think that’s a good idea.

32
Q

LIONEL: Your sister said there were two possibilities over by the reservoir. Why don’t you check them out?

A

My mind’s made up.

33
Q

LIONEL: Sorry I can’t help you.

A

You can and you will.

So where do we live?

Now you’ll take me seriously, won’t you?
