Line 18:
Daria and [[Quinn Morgendorffer|Quinn]] are to serve as bridesmaids, so Daria has to go downtown to try and fit a bridesmaid dress, being humiliated by an ill-tempered sales women and the fact that Quinn looks lovely in her dress. At the shop, she meets [[Jodie Landon|Jodie]] and [[Brittany Taylor|Brittany]], who are preparing an extra-curriculum appearance at a bridal expo.
 
The wedding takes place at the Windsor Hills, a luxury resort place. The Morgendorffers meet Rita and, a few moments later, [[Amy Barksdale|Aunt Amy]] arrives. The later immediately starts throwing verbal barbs at her sisters, Jake and even [[Paul Meyerson|Paul]], Rita's current beau. She compliments only Daria when the later reveals the same use of sarcastic humor. Later, Daria and Quinn are received by the other bridesmaids and presented to their escorts. Daria’s is [[Luhrman]], a seemingly bored young man who snipes away at her attempts of conversation, while [[GarretGarrett]], Quinn’s escort, immediately fawns over her.The wedding ceremony goes without a glitch, except when Amy provokes Daria’s laugh by doing faces at her during a particularly emotional part of the sermon.
 
At the same time, in Lawndale at the bride expo, [[Mack Mackenzie|Mack]] and [[Kevin Thompson|Kevin]] have sneaked in to watch their respective girlfriends, despite Mack’s worries that Jodie and Brittany wouldn’t want them there. This proofs correct when Kevin makes himself noticed when Brittany’s on stage, provoking her walking off in disgust and later berating him.
Line 24:
Meanwhile, the wedding reception is now taking place: Jake and Paul, who had known each other previously form boy scouts, talk about their respective spouses. Daria amuses herself by telling outlandish stories about her fictional occupations to the credulous bridesmaids. Luhrman shows himself to be even more cynical than Daria, though he discreetly helps Daria with her stories. Erin and her groom [[Brian Danielson|Brian]] make the rounds, with the bride only too eager to reveal Brian's work in government intelligence. Later, Daria has a private talk with Amy at the restroom, who tells her some childhood memories and that she tries to handle her sisters using sarcasm.
 
At the head table, however, a drunk Helen starts loudly complaining about the wedding costs and the favoritism their mother is showing, first to Rita and now to Erin. The rant brings the attention of the whole family and quickly escalates into a fight. Meanwhile, the minister’s continuous attempts to hit on Quinn eventually draw the ire of GarretGarrett and, after a few exchanged harsh words, the two start throwing punches (to Quinn’sQuinn's delightresponse of "oh no"). The two fights degenerate in a full scale brawl that trashes the reception.
 
Daria and Amy, seeing the carnage enfold, make a discreet escape to a nearby bowling alley, where they continue to talk and bond. They find Brian there, also escaping from the fight, but take no notice of him.
 
At the end of the night, at what remains of the reception, Helen and Rita end up drunkenly proclaiming their eternal love, Quinn consoles a battered Garrett, the battered minister tries to hit on an older girl, Paul is able to bribe the police away, and Jake finally has some fun when he goes golfing in the middle of the night.
