        Yang Richard joins them.

                        YANG RICHARD
                Lovely lovely place, Edgefield!

                        MATRE'D
                Thank you.  I was told the bride is arriving
                later.

                        YANG RICHARD
                Who told you that?

                        MATRE'D
                The brother of the bride.  Jack Brodey, I
                believe his name is.

                        YANG RICHARD
                It's supposed to be a surprise. I hope you're
                keeping it to yourselves.  Don't want to ruin
                the party. The delivering of the bride is the
                most important part of the ritual.

                        MATRE'D
                I just wanted to make sure what the procedure
                is going to be.

                        YANG RICHARD
                The bride gets delivered and off we go, into
                marriage and Eden!

                        MATRE'D
                Whatever, long as I'm informed.

                        YANG RICHARD
                I'm not sure how my future brother-in-law
                found out -- he's not in the ceremony.

                        MATRE'D
                I can't tell you.

                        YANG RICHARD
                Well, no harm done, I suppose.  Nothing to do
                now but wait for the big surprise entrance, right?
                Meanwhile, I best watch my p's and q's at the bar.
                 Wouldn't want to drink so much I change my mind!
                Right?

                        MATRE'D
                No, we certainly wouldn't want that.

                        YANG RICHARD
                I guess I'm a little nervous.  My first
                marriage.  Almost tied the knot in my previous
                life, but my fiancee ran off with my
                fraternity brother.

                        WAITPERSON
                Your previous life?

                        YANG RICHARD
                Before yanghood, I mean.  Before the
                primitive balance of all things was
                revealed to me by the High Priestess Dwallah.

                        WAITPERSON
                If you don't need me, captain, I
                have chores to do . . .

                        MATRE'D
                On your way, then . . .

        Waitperson gets out of there.  /ex8/  TIME CODE: 05:00
