At the church, there is a wedding ceremony going on.  Priest:  Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today, to join these two people in matrimony.  This occasion marks the celebration of love and commitment, with which this man and this woman, begin their life together.  Sitting in the pews are Emily, Mike, Kevin and across the aisle, Mentor Ji.  Mia is dressed in a lovely wedding gown, and Jayden is standing next to her.  Mentor Ji dabs at his eyes with a handkerchief.  Priest:  Through marriage we make a commitment.  Mike spots Mentor Ji wiping away tears and he is very amused.  Mike:  Dude, check out Mentor's waterworks.  Mike looks behind him, where Kevin is sitting.  Kevin is crying.  Mike's grin fades.  Kevin:  It's just allergies.  Kevin glances at his boutonnière.  Kevin:  The flowers.  Mike looks confounded that Kevin has gotten caught up in the wedding.  Emily:  Wow.  Mia looks so beautiful.  Mike gives Emily a puzzled look and can't believe she is enchanted with the wedding as well.  Mike turns back to face the ceremony.  Mike:  Someone get me out of here.  Priest:  You promise one another to aspire to these ideals throughout the rest of your lives together.  Love is patient.  Love is kind.  Mike slouches down in the pew.  Mike:  I think I'm going to be sick.

Several Moogers are running down a street in the city, carrying a rickshaw behind them.

The ceremony continues inside.  Priest:  Do you promise to be faithful to her, forsaking all others for the rest of your life?  There is silence.  Mia looks at Jayden.  Jayden gives a scare glance at Mia.

The Moogers stop in front of the church and race up the steps.

Inside the church, the ceremony continues.  Priest:  If any person can show just cause why they may not be joined together....

The Moogers burst through the door and race up the aisle.  The bride and groom turn around.  The bride starts screaming and the groom tries to protect her.  The Moogers push their way through and grab a hold of the bride.  Bride:  No!  The bride drops her bouquet.  The Moogers drag the bride out and crushes her bouquet on the way out.

Mentor Ji quickly stands up and answer his phone.  Mentor Ji:  They took the bride!  Mia and Jayden turn around and face Mia.  Mentor Ji:  Okay.  Mentor Ji hangs up.  He informs the teens that the Nighloks didn't take the bail.
