[QUOTE="JROG, post: 2997, member: 43"] [u]EPISODES 18 & 19: THE WEDDING & THE HONEYMOON[/u] Building up to the dream wedding, the show displays a fascinating array of one-on-one scenes between various characters. Miles and Fallon, Miles and Monica, Jason with his sons, Sable and Frankie ("Don’t be the last one to leave!" Sable tells her sister after she’s agreed to her presence at the wedding). We are introduced to Zach's (step?) son, and it was about time that Ray Wise showed up – if Ray Wise doesn’t show up, has your soap opera [i]really[/i] happened?—before Miles goes to Zach for help in getting out of the murder mess he’s in. Dominique, quite surprisingly, apologizes to Jeff for all the times she inexplicably insisted Fallon was dead and tries to discourage him from finding her. And Fucking Barbara Stanwyck gives Fallon the world’s lamest gift from a filthy rich person. After the show makes lame excuses about why Alexis and Krystle can’t attend (something about fog in Denver), Jeff and Fallon's wedding day arrives. The wedding is shot through a cheesecloth—glamorous!—and Fallon attempts her best flamingo impersonation for the event. But, in any case, they get married. The real exciting juice is after Jeff and Fallon leave for their honeymoon. Why, yes, yes, YES, Miles is arrested for murder! It gives Caulfield the chance to make even more hilarious faces and it gives Miles some of his most thrilling material yet, as he admits that he’s not sure whether he did, in fact, do the killing.
