Description
Speak now, or forever hold your peace.
Damn.
Patrick is one cold ass motherfucker.
It was all still rumbling around in my head somewhere…
How could i forget something like that.
Why even come to the ceremony if you were going to make a big scene like that
I didn't.
Why even show up?
Appearances.
Are you serious?
–it would look bad if I didn't.
It looked bad that you did and then exited during the ceremony.
–the end of the ceremony.
Specifically at the objections.
–I wasn't paying attention.
You stood up!
I had to use the restroom.
As an objection?
Merely a coincidence.
You don't believe in coincidences.
I don't believe in marriages, either.
Oh, please.
I begged you.
That's your excuse.
It's not an excuse.
Is it an objection?
And if it was?
I got married anyway.
–So it wouldn't matter.
Thanks for the toaster oven.
–I didn't get you a toaster oven.
Yes you did.
Uh–no, I didn't.
Then what did you get us?
Nothing, I forgot.
Well, the card was from you.
Hm
Maybe you forgot to forget.
Maybe.
Thank you, anyway.
–Congratulations.
There's leftover cake.
Where?
Everywhere.

LATER.
Hazel is practicing her guitar; her glasses rest at the edge of her nose, as she focuses on the instrument, almost as if her father in the doorway is a shadow, or an afterthought. She carefully tunes the strings as he leans into her bedroom.
Hazel.
Hm.
Did you buy Esha and Mark a toaster oven with my credit card?
She stops for a moment and peers over the brim of her glasses briefly addressing her father.
–I knew you'd forget.
Oh. I–I did.
I know.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
He pauses for a moment before making his departure, turning into the hallway.
There's leftover cake.
She seems genuinely excited.
There is? Where?
[beat]
…everywhere.
Ugh. This show blows my mind.
Yeah. Sometimes almost literally.
Happiness is a warm gun.
