(Missing days due to Wimbledon.)
I don't like Felicia's sheets. She found a red rose and a note on the pillow next to her. Mitch had to leave early for Alaska. Lisa came in bearing coffee. They chatted.
Michael made phone calls over breakfast. Suddenly John was stricken with something.
Adam 'misted and flamed' about his wicked bachelor pad, as well as any man in a green bathrobe can be said to mist and flame while playing air guitar. WOULD YOU MARRY THIS MAN? Mac phoned. Adam assured him truthfully he wasn't nervous. This morning he gets decorated, this afternoon he marries MJ; this is as good as it gets.
MJ had a nightmare about the tape and woke up screaming "He's going to hate me." Cheryl rushed in. MJ couldn't explain. She said she'd forgotten the dream. She asked Cheryl to leave her alone. Adam phoned to be cheerful. MJ asked if she could come over. He said no. She asked why not. He said he was having a few of his old girlfriends over before the ceremony to say goodbye. He had to tell her it was a joke. She said she had to talk to him. There was a knock at his door so he said he'd see her at the church. He told her he loved her several times and hung up. MJ took the tape out of her drawer and threw it around the room.
Michael phoned the hospital. When he left the room John asked Donna about Victoria. He said Bridget had told him what Reginald had done and he wouldn't have let it happen. (Nobody knew, you turkey. What could anyone have done?) Donna said it didn't matter because she had Victoria and Michael and they were all she needed.
Girl talk about love. Felicia's in love. Mitch is in love. Lisa's in love. Jamie's in love. Felicia advised Lisa to go for it. She had to rush for her show. Adam's on today.
Donna plied John with aspirin for his headaches and a cold cloth for his head. (They are obviously trying to prove that Marley and Victoria are like Michael and John, respectively. I hate it, since I know that Victoria is like Donna: scheming and manipulative.) Word is, she's heading east.
Adam hopped around on one foot tying his shoelaces. He let Jamie in with his tuxedo. They are really very nice cousins. Adam is very definite about not wanting to weasel out of this wedding. Jamie bought socks. They rushed out.
John suffered. Michael and Donna hovered. John admitted that Jamie had said he might be permanently blind. (John: Mike, you've got that tone in your voice again. Michael: What tone have I got in my voice, John? John: Like when the big elk tells Bambi that his mother's dead.) John said he'd call the Braille institute as soon as his head was better.
Felicia has Mayor Robert Kelly decorating Adam on her show. (I want Bruce Bedwetter back.) Adam seems to be on a lot oftener than is necessary. I mean, I know he's photogenic, but nobody's THAT photogenic. Some kind of civil ceremony, eh? Felicia mentioned that Adam was marrying his partner today. Adam said he thought she should mention his partner was female.
MJ snapped off the TV when Adam began to thank her on the air. When she opened her bedroom door there was Chad in the hall. He'd told Julie he wanted to talk about the reception. MJ said everything had been said. Chad disagreed. He advised her not to tell Adam. MJ held her head up and said that Adam was a good man and he would forgive her. Chad doubted it. MJ assured him that she loved Adam and he loved her. Chad said goodbye and left. MJ touched her wedding dress.
Adam grabbed his medal and ran. Jamie lingered to talk to Lisa. They got things sorted out, a little. Michael's phone calls caught up to Jamie. Jamie said he'd have a pain killer sent over and he'd come by if it got worse.
Marley phoned Michael and reported that Victoria had phoned her from Las Vegas and left a phone number. Michael called it. Her room was busy.
Victoria was a spoiled brat on the phone to room service. Some man told her she couldn't afford breakfast. She's in a bubble bath.
Adam and Jamie got back to the wicked bachelor pad and started to straighten up to make the place fit for a wife. Jamie just shoved everything that wasn't moving in the refrigerator. Adam considered watching the videotape but Jamie sidetracked him with talk of honeymoons and Gollum. Then Jamie went home to change. Adam started shoving things in boxes.
Sara confronted Chad. Felicia and Julie organised things. Chad considers himself no longer obliged to MJ. He thanked Sara for being such a leech. She suggested they go be somewhere else together. Chad agreed.
Everyone argued about the problems of raising Victoria. Nobody knows what to do with her, except John, the expert. Victoria phoned from her bubble bath and told 'daddy' that she was in trouble. (DADDY?) She turned the phone over to the assistant manager. She's in debt. They took her clothes to keep her from running away. Michael headed out to help her, leaving Adam in the lurch and Donna to make John feel better. His glasses fell off and he saw the outline of her head.
Felicia told Lisa about Cass and Kathleen.
The tape caught Adam's eye as he was folding pants and he started up the VCR. He saw a pair of legs in hose with seams and he stared. Then he was stunned to see the legs attached to MJ having sex with a stranger. He sat down. MJ knocked at the door. He stopped the tape and let her in in stunned silence. She said she had to tell him something about her past before they got married. He told her he'd seen the tape.
