SCENE 1 | Maria and Luis welcome the viewer as they look at pictures from their wedding day. Suddenly, Sonny Friendly appears, proclaiming they're contestants on his "Remember Your Wedding Day Game." The couple tell him they are not playing his silly game (knowing the lousy prize they'd receive) and continue looking through their scrapbook. As they continue looking through their book, Sonny reveals that if they had played the game, they would've won legitimate tickets for a trip around the world. They decide to play now and show him what they know from the pictures. They no longer get a trip around the world; instead a trip around their living room. |
