Synopsis[]
Doug, Deacon, Danny and Spence are headed for Memphis so Spence can tell Denise, who's about to get married, they belong together.
Storyline[]
What starts out as a valiant effort to win back the heart of Spence's ex-girlfriend, Denise Battaglia (Rachel Dratch), quickly goes south as Danny gets a sudden case of lockjaw and the group spends all the money they took out as cash advances from their credit cards. Meanwhile, Arthur fills in at the front desk of the senior center and has some words with the pudding vendor.

Trivia/Notes[]
- Note: Nicole Sullivan is credited, but does not appear in this episode.
- During the road trip Spence tells Doug to take I70 to I64 and then I40. You can not travel that route without taking odd numbered interstates. Even numbered interstates run East and West. Odd numbered interstates run North and South. In actuality they would have needed to take I70 to I77 to I64 to I75 to I40 to reach their destination.
- When they get to the church in Memphis they drive by mountains, Memphis doesn't have any mountains.
Kentucky does not have Indian casinos now or back then.
Goofs[]

- When Denise runs from the groom, the priest looks at her, then at the groom. In the next shot, he is looking at her again. Also, as Denise goes down the aisle, a red stain suddenly appears on the carpeting.
