"Ready or Not" is the twenty-seventh episode of season 3 of Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman.
Mike and Sully go to Reverend Johnson for a dose of the traditional pre-marital counseling, and recall the rough and rowdy path of their love and how it came to be. At first Dr. Mike and Sully don't believe they need any counseling or help because there won't be arguments or disagreements. However, disagreements develop and Sully says it is just picking on old wounds, and there is doubt as to whether or not they should marry, when Dr. Mike walks out and wants to be alone. Sully himself also later walks out and quits. The Reverend is optimistic that there will be a wedding, but not Dr. Mike. Sully however, later returns to the church and listens at the door before walking in. Dr. Mike admits she is frightened by the intimacy of marriage and Sully assures her he will take it easy.
