Ted has proposed to and been accepted by Georgette so many times he can't remember. People are a bit cruel to Ted so Mary decides to have little party so they can show appreciation for him. While there, Georgette tricks Ted. She demands that this time he put his money where his mouth is and get married in the next half hour. Of course, there is utter panic. Guests must be brought in and the place decorated. Lou and Murray come in looking like they've been cleaning a furnace. Sue Ann brings the flowers, the champagne, corsages, and rice to throw. All they need is a minister and they get newly ordained John Ritter (I always loved this guy, died way too young). He is in tennis shorts and carries a racquet. He doesn't have his prayer book so he has to wing it, with the help of the other participants. Ted recites vows, but since Murray is his writer, he whispers the words into Ted's ear. The result is about as funny as anything I've heard. Another great episode in what appears to have been the strongest season.

Mary hosts a "let's be nicer to Ted" lunch but Murray and Lou make their excuses so it is only Ted and Georgette in attendance. When Ted proposes marriage yet again, Georgette holds him to it: they will get married right now. Lou and Murray are summoned, as is Sue Ann who apparently keeps everything needed for an impromptu wedding on stand-by. A minister (John Ritter) is called to attend to an unspecified "emergency", and arrives in tennis gear.

Another strong, assured, straight-ahead comedy episode.
