* ChivalrousPervert: Norman. He's the stereotypical DirtyOldMan, but he's also very kind and friendly. Norman is always the one helping Muriel with her wheelchair in the airport and on the bus (while underscoring that he doesn't want any young ladies to think that they're a couple).

Wedding Day is no longer a trope per TRS.


* WeddingDay: The other thing Sonny is trying to do besides open a second hotel? Marry his girlfriend while raging with jealousy at her friend Kush. He nearly scuppers everything with his attitude, but he eventually works things out and apologizes in time to make the glittering ceremony a truly joyous event.
