Go To

Tropes present in this episode:

  • Elopement: What the family thinks Alice and Sam are doing. What Alice's cousin (offscreen) is actually doing (and Alice has been asked to be a witness).
  • Exactly What It Says on the Tin: Alice asking for the weekend off to accompany Sam to a private wedding ceremony for one of Alice's cousins is exactly what she says it is – despite the family thinking it is something else.
  • Not What It Looks Like: To the family, as they're forever jumping to conclusions that it is Sam and Alice that are getting married ... even to the point where they hastily plan a surprise wedding party on the night Sam took Alice to a prestigious bowling tournament.
  • Will They or Won't They?: Will Sam ever ask Alice to marry him? Will they elope off-screen over the weekend? The latter point – no; the former ... as Alice reveals in the tag scene ... a resounding yes!
