Rita and Pove's wedding day and the girls are still getting ready. Rita is on the phone texting her heart away and Sara says she's just waiting for her ex-lovers. Silvia is wearing only a robe and her undies. She's holding her dress and thinks she's fat.

Then she thinks her boobs have gotten bigger. Lola can only laugh at her sister's giddiness.

Lucas knocks on the door with Carlota in tow. Lola opens the door and Lucas sees Silvia half naked and is taken aback - not the he hasn't seen this (and more... or less?) before. Silvia, still being silly, invites him to come in for a better view.

He introduces Carlota to everyone and Sara is stumped, thinking that Lucas has a new and younger interest. Actually, Lola and Silvia are kinda surprised too. Lucas asks Rita if he can take Carlota to the wedding.

Mariano comes in looking for Paco and he runs into half-naked Silvia.

Rita asks if Lucas has taken Carlota shopping and what is she going to wear. Sara, in a gesture of "I don't care if you have a younger and prettier new GF because I'm cool", steps in and offers to lend Carlota one of her slutty outfits.

Montage of the girls all dressed up and Pove still handcuffed to Badass guy. The song Lo Quiero Todo de Ti which Pove wrote when he proposed to Rita, is playing in the background.

Back story: Everyone is now at the church, but Pove is nowhere to be found because he's still handcuffed to Badass somewhere near Portugal! So the idiots Curtis and Quique, instead of telling Rita, ask Pove's twin Antonio to "stand in" for his brother while Pove is still missing. They try to stall by hitting the priest on the head rendering him unconscious. Lola takes charge and asks if there's a priest among the congregation.

There's a priest so the wedding goes on as planned. WITHOUT THE GROOM! But this is LHDP, so whatever. The wedding march is the song our girl band Los Cachis was practicing 2 episodes ago - Cada Dia. Rita walks to the altar in Paco's arms. The real groom found a ride back to Madrid but won't make it to the ceremony, so he's phoning it in (literally).

While the bride is approaching the altar accompanied by Los Cachis, furtive glances between current and ex-lovers. (Montoya's date is Ruth)

Piper's Commentary: I don't think I know of any show that has made a mockery of weddings than this one. Its record is really dismal: Rita & Pove, Sara & Lucas, Pepa & Silvia - not one was without blood. Not one! Which leads me to this question: what is it about marriage that the writers abhor so much? Or do they subconsciously associate weddings with disaster? I really thought that they wouldn't go 0-3 with PepSi's, but I guess I was wrong.

Also, were Rita and Pove really married? Were Rita and Antonio?
