Quotes 

• Maxwell Sheffield : Jocelyn. Nigel. I'd like you to meet my business partner, Miss C.C. Babcock.

  Chastity Claire 'C.C.' Babcock : Actually, I'm more like part of the family.

  Niles : Yes. We keep putting her out at night, and she keeps finding her way back.

• Maxwell Sheffield : Miss Fine, where's Jocelyn? It's time to give her away.

  Fran Fine : Too late, she's already gone.

  [Maxwell opens the door to see Jocelyn kissing Lester. Maxwell closes the door and goes back out to speak to Fran] 

  Maxwell Sheffield : My God, what did you do?

  Fran Fine : I didn't say anything to her!

  Maxwell Sheffield : Did you speak to Lester?

  Fran Fine : Oh, I talked to a million people today. You think I remember every Tom, Dick, and Harry?

  [Fran goes to the living room where the wedding ceremony is supposed to take place] 

  Kenny Keroucan : [to the seated crowd]  Uh... Ladies and gentleman. We're experiencing a little technical difficulties. So for your pre-nuptial enjoyment, the comic stylings of Mr. Kenny Keroucan.

  Kenny Keroucan : [confused]  Huh?

  Kenny Keroucan : [after Fran quickly urges Kenny to perform his stand-up routine]  So... How many of you been bar mitzvahed?

  [Nigel follows Fran to the hall, where Maxwell is still waiting] 

  Nigel Waters : What's happened?

  Maxwell Sheffield : Ah, Nigel. Uh...

  Nigel Waters : Jocelyn? Is she all right?

  [Nigel is about to open the door to the room where Jocelyn is] 

  Fran Fine : [excitedly]  Don't go in there.

  Nigel Waters : Why not?

  Fran Fine : Uh... It's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding?

  Nigel Waters : [after Nigel opens the door and sees Jocelyn kissing Lester, Nigel slams the door closed behind him]  I'll say.

• Jocelyn Sheffield : I'd like you all to meet Nigel Waters, the Duke of Salisbury.

  Fran Fine : Oh, I love your steak.

  Nigel Waters : Thank you. Lord Worcestershire and I get together every Sunday for a barbecue.

  Maxwell Sheffield : And the Earl of Sandwich pops by for leftovers.

• Maxwell Sheffield : Jocelyn's coming for a visit. And she's bringing a man.

  Fran Fine : Oh, what a great hostess gift. Gee, I hope she knows my size.
