Father of the Bride

Kay delivers her bombshell to the Banks family at breakfast with just three little words, ""we're getting married.""

Stanley Banks meets his future son-in-law to learn how Buckley Dunstan expects to take care of a wife but only succeeds in convincing Buckley that he, Stanley, is destitute.

Ellie, with great trepidation, and Stanley call on Buckleys' parents for the first time.

Buckley's mother suggests a specially cut, family heirloom ring as the ideal engagement ring for Kay, to Buckley's horror. But to Buckley's amazement, Kay thinks the ring is beautiful, and all goes happily until Father picks the ring up from the jeweler, who has reset it, and promptly loses it.

Father decides against hiring caterers for the engagement party. He'll handle the drinks and Delilah will take care of everything else.

Kay sets out to show the Dunstans that she is more than just an attractive woman by insisting, against Ellie's warning, on making an exotic curry. All goes well until Tommy's pained cries ring through the house, where upon Stanley calls on Ellie to perform a last minute rescue operation.
