getting married somewhere that we can

find in a day, well then we should just

postpone it.

Postpone it.

>> Emily, do you think Monica realizes how

much our parents spent on this wedding?

Huh? Do you think my sister's teeny tiny

little brain comprehends that people

took time out of their lives to fly

thousands of miles to be here? Huh?

[laughter]

This isn't right.

I realize that people are going to be

disappointed, [laughter]

can do it right.

Would you ask people to do that?

>> Don't you point your pants at me.

[laughter]

>> We have no choice. Anywhere that's half

decent will have been booked months ago.

Ross, don't you understand? This is our

wedding I'm talking about.

>> The only thing I understand is

postponing it is not an option. This is

when we're getting married.

>> So, what are you saying? It's now or

never? No, I'm saying it's now

>> or

>> there's no ore in mine.

>> What is wrong with these pants?

>> It's not the pants. It's you who's

backwards. And if and if you don't

understand how important this is to me,

well then perhaps we shouldn't be

getting married at all.

>> What? Emily, NO. WAIT. STOP. EMILY,

PLEASE. OH,

>> thank you.

>> Hello, sir. You here to return those

pants?

>> [laughter]

>> No, these are my pants.

How can I help you?

left?

>> 2 days before Christmas. Sorry, man.

>> Okay. Look, do do you have anything uh

Christmasy? I promised my son, and I I

really don't want to disappoint him. Um,

come on. I you got to have something.

I'm the holiday armadillo.

[laughter]

I'm a friend of Santa's and he sent me

here to wish you a merry Christmas.

>> What happened to Santa? Holiday

Oh, come in. Have a seat. You must be

exhausted coming all the way from Texas.
