Breakup at a Wedding Page #4

Synopsis: Having worked in the business for ten years, Vic James is a wedding videographer who will do anything to make the resulting video special for the bride and groom regardless of what s*** has gone on during the events. He is looking forward to his latest job filming Alison Jones and Phil Havemeyer's nuptials if only because Alison is a people pleaser, which means that she has given him unfettered access to everything for filming, while Phil is always distracted by being on his iPhone to bother noticing what Vic is doing. The night before the wedding at the rehearsal dinner, Alison gets a case of cold feet largely because of her parents' own failed marriage, with the resulting belief that she and Phil are destined to break up at some point in their lives, so better do it now than later. Being that people pleaser in not wanting to disrupt the lives of others who have placed their time and energy into the proceedings, Alison is able to convince Phil to go through with a wedding ceremony but

Ready?

- Oh, wait. Hold on.

- Philip...

I gotta take this call.

Do not take that.

Look, I got...

Look, put it over here.

Phil. Phil. Do not take that.

I gotta take this call, babe.

It could be Damian, all right? Do not...

Look, just give me

one minute.

I'll be right back.

One minute.

Damian,

can you hear me?

I'm going where

I can hear you.

- Is Alison all right?

- I think she is.

How would you be? You know, bad

rehearsal, good marriage maybe.

- Really?

- That didn't happen at my wedding.

I just made that up.

I just made that up.

No, I think that's a thing.

Now it's a thing. They

have a sense of humor.

Ah, babe, I'm so sorry.

It was Damian.

I'm so sorry, okay?

Here we go.

I'm not... I'm not going...

I'm not going back out there.

Babe, we gotta bring this out.

I don't wanna go back out there.

Let's just drop this off.

No. I won't go out there.

What...

What's going on, babe?

Are you okay?

No, I'm not okay.

Close the door.

What's the matter? This is not

working. It's just not working.

I just don't feel... I just

don't feel good. Babe, babe.

Have you ever seen their

Halloween costumes? No.

Oh, my God. What?

They go all out.

You can't go to a party

with them...

'cause there's no way you can

possibly beat... No, It's crazy.

You just have to, like, go

buy a mask... Sloth and Chunk.

Sloth and Chunk were amazing.

I know.

- Oh, my God.

- Phil really does the best Sloth.

Scottie Pippen,

Michael Jordan.

Oh, yeah, that was good.

It was crazy.

Wait a minute. How did they do

that? Were they in blackface?

No, they weren't

in blackface.

But hands down,

the best costume ever:

2007, Stephen Hawking

and the universe.

Oh, my God!

Alison just ruled him.

I think

I've just been, like,

going along with this for a

long time and kind of just, like,

going through the motions and just

getting caught up with everything,

and... I just...

Babe, this was your idea.

I know, but I just

thought, like...

This is your day.

I know.

This is the day you dreamed of

when you were a little girl. I know!

Why would you wanna have a wedding

if you didn't wanna get married?

This is what you wanted,

right?

You wanted to have a wedding.

No, I didn't.

No, I didn't.

You wanted to get married.

No, I just...

No, I just...

I don't know.

It's what normal people do.

I don't know. I didn't

ever really want it.

We can't have these guys

come all this way, you know,

and then we're gonna

cancel the wedding.

You wanna cancel the

wedding? I can't do it.

You're actually

being serious.

This is just cold feet.

This is some normal...

I gotta tell these people.

What? No.

I gotta tell 'em.

What do you wanna do?
