Plot

Almost a year after Steve left, Marcy is married again, albeit by accident. She wakes up with a ring on her finger, and a strange man in her bed, but when he turns out to be younger, taller and much better looking than Steve, it doesn't seem like such a terrible mistake. After a drinking binge at a bankers party, Marcy finds herself wed to the mysterious hunk named Jefferson D'Arcy. To make Marcy feel better to this unexpected change in her life, Peggy decides to throw a formal wedding ceremony for Marcy and Jefferson in the Bundy's back yard, in which nothing goes a planned.

So, in order to remember this event with Jefferson, Marcy is persuaded to give Al two thousand dollars to run the impromtu wedding in his backyard. However, he cuts costs at every corner, arranging for a sea captain to be the minister over the radio (who is paid with a bottle of rum), inviting Bud's soccer team and Kelly's fashion school friends over inviting Marcy's relatives to hide their tracks, and having Bud "draw" the wedding photos. However, whilst preparing, Al discovers that Jefferson is an ex-con, telling Al not to tell Marcy. The ceremony ends with Marcy and Jefferson growing suspicious of the wedding setup, and Al drops Jefferson's secret on Marcy in order to cover Al's getaway. Al uses his part of the money to invest in a Lake that turns out to be the same Lake that Jefferson used to defraud people out of money, due to the lake not being habitable until the year 5 million. Al is left to his thoughts - fishing with Bud, the two of them mutated with tails.
