Rehearsal Dinner Guest: We are gathered here to celebrate love pure and simple. Rachel is pure. Sidney is simple. May the two of you live and love for as long as you want, but never want for as long as you live. And most importantly, may all of your ups and downs come only in the bedroom.

Kym: I lied to your face, I weighed six pounds, my hair was falling out. I spent every dinner in the bathroom.
Abby: Honey, you were sick.
Kym: That was an illness.
Abby: You know what it was.
Kym: I stayed in my room for days. I passed out all the time.
Abby: No, no.
Kym: What were you thinking?
Abby: No.
Kym: Why did you leave me?
Abby: I was there, I didn't leave you.
Kym: Why would you leave me in change of him?
Abby: Because you were good with him.
Kym: Mom, mom, why would you leave...
Abby: No you were...
Kym: Why would you leave... a drug addict to watch your son?
Abby: No, you were good with him! You were the best you were with him!
Kym: Mom! Listen to me, listen!
Abby: I didn't expect you to kill him, sweetheart!
Kym: Mom!
Abby: You were not supposed to kill him!
Kym: [Abby pushes Kym onto the couch] Mom, what are you doing? Get off!
Abby: Oh, God! God!
Kym: Mom!
