The Wedding Ringer Page #2

Synopsis: Doug Harris (Josh Gad) is a lovable but socially awkward groom-to-be with a problem: he has no best man. With less than two weeks to go until he marries the girl of his dreams (Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting), Doug is referred to Jimmy Callahan (Kevin Hart), owner and CEO of Best Man, Inc., a company that provides flattering best men for socially challenged guys in need. What ensues is a hilarious wedding charade as they try to pull off the big con, and an unexpected budding bromance between Doug and his fake best man Jimmy.

(HEART BEATING)

Mom and I

narrowed it down

to the silver tulle

tussie-mussie,

which is an exact replica of

the 1915 Texan Tussie-Mussie.

Or we have our Trs Beau

with its goldia

floral etching,

enhanced in

a smoky-silver tone.

Does anyone else feel really

f***ing gay right now?

Ed! Let's go with the Trs Beau.

Trs Beau tussie-mussie

is fabulous.

Christ, somebody just shoot me.

I'll be outside.

EDMUNDO:
All right, team, can

we all gather around, please?

Okay. I have everything

I need for the bridesmaids,

but I am still missing

the groomsmen's information.

What? Honey, you told me you

spoke to all the groomsmen.

(STAMMERS) See,

I sent them an email,

but you know how guys are.

They just haven't

responded yet.

Babe, I know

you've been really busy,

but our wedding

is in 10 days.

I mean,

can't your best man

help you with

all of this?

Uh, but you see,

Bic's still in El Salvador.

Well, let's hope he's in LA next week.

(SNICKERS)

DOUG:
Oh, he will be.

Mom.

He'll be there.

Okay, look, why don't I

just contact Mr. Rambis,

Mr. Garvey, Mr. Plunkett, Mr.

Carew,

Mr. Drysdale, Mr. Alzado, Mr.

Dickerson?

I can't breathe.

Mister, are you okay?

GRETCHEN:
Honey.

(GASPS)

Honey!

Unless you are

planning to run,

you are backing yourself

into a very tight corner.

I'm not sure I understand

what you're implying.

Three out of seven of your

groomsmen are Hall of Famers.

She'll leave me, I know. You're

not gonna tell her, are you?

She's going to find out soon enough.

Oh, God.

Why didn't you say

something to me before?

I've been on a bullet train

ever since I proposed.

I haven't slept

in months.

I can't keep anything down. I

keep losing weight. I just...

I just want her

to be happy.

The truth

is always the best.

What if the truth

isn't an option?

Well...

There is one other thing.

Oh, babe!

I don't wanna lie

I'm gonna take

what you're giving

'Cause I know

you're willing

To take me all the way

You got me right here

Combustible

And I can't wait

to finally explode

The big, big bang

The reason I'm alive

Hey, hey! Lou,knock

that sh*t off, man.

(GROANS)

Don't worry about Lou.

He had half his brain

removed two years ago.

LOU:
F*** off.

Okay.

Hey, uh, do you know where

I can find the basement?

The big, big bang

The reason I'm alive

When all the stars collide

In this universe inside

The big, big bang

(DOOR BUZZING)

Oh, babe

May I help you?

Hi. Yeah.

Yeah, um, I'm looking

for Jimmy Callahan.

Who sent you? The Goose?

No. Um, Edmundo.

Ah.

Welcome to

The Best Man Inc.

It's a beautiful night

We're looking for

something dumb to do

( Hey, Dab)'

I think I wanna marry you.

Just say I do
