When Charlie's new girlfriend Michelle (Liz Vassey) finds out about Rose, she is freaked out about his stalker; she later asks Charlie if he loves Rose and when they both realize he does, she gently but firmly ends their relationship. Rose then tells Charlie she's marrying someone named Manfred Quinn. Charlie doesn't believe her, so he and Alan drive to the church, where the wedding is supposed to take place. As they look through the window, they find Rose getting married and Charlie is left to lament his lost love. However, after they leave, it is revealed that everyone in the church, except for Rose and the priest, are mannequins.
Alan: So, today's the big day, huh? What big day? Rose's wedding.
Charlie: Oh, please! There's no wedding.
Alan: You sure about that?
Charlie: Yeah, I'm sure.
Alan: But what if you're wrong?
Charlie: What do you mean?
Alan: I mean, would it make a difference to you, knowing that cute little face will never pop up over that railing again? That the one woman who's always loved you and been there for you is forever out of reach?
Charlie: Come on.
Alan: Where are we going?
Charlie: To the church. I'm gonna prove to you that she's not getting married.
Alan: Okay. Aren't we a little underdressed?
Charlie: There's no wedding.
Alan: Last chance to go halvsies on the napkin rings.
Charlie: There's no wedding.
Alan: Only cost you 50 bucks.
Charlie: You see? No wedding.
Alan: You got X-ray vision?
Charlie: (Scoffs) Come on, I'll show you. Just heads up-- if there's no wedding, you're getting napkin rings for Christmas.
Charlie: Go ahead, Alan, look. Tell me if you see a wedding.
Alan: I see a wedding.
Charlie: What?
Minister: Two persons present now come to be joined. Rose and Manfred, we are here to remember...
Charlie: Oh, my God. She's really doing it. Rose is getting married.
Alan: It's not too late to stop it.
Charlie: (Sighs) Don't be ridiculous. It's way too late.
Alan: Okay, $25 to split the gift-- and I'm losing money.
Alan: Unbelievable. Rose is actually married. (chuckles) Mrs. Manfred Quinn.
Charlie: (Big Sighs) I see it now. I love her. I've always loved her.
Alan: I'm sorry.
Charlie: It's true what they say, Alan. You don't know what you got until it's gone.
Alan: Well you still got me.
Charlie: You're not who they had in mind when they said it. I'll always love you, Rose.
Alan: Mrs. Manny Quinn.
