A few days later, the diner again, only today it was filled with decorations, food, and people in fancy attire.

At one table sat Hector, Keith, Jessica, and Lisa, wearing quite elegant suits and dresses (the boys wore the suits and the girls wore the dresses, as you have probably already guessed).

"That was beautiful," Lisa sighed as she absentmindedly fingered the little bowl of yellow and orange M&Ms in front of her. "Yeah," Hector agreed, "really nice."

Spotting Manny's little robot, he called out "You did good, little guy!"

"Thank. You." It droned back.

Jessica chuckled. "A robo-ringbearer. Now I've seen everything."

Hearing a familiar grunt, the Company all looked up to see Paul and the new Mrs. The Gorilla walk up to their table. Paul, for the occasion, had put on a banana-yellow bowtie and some finely-ironed pants. Mrs. Spamboni looked beautiful in her lily-white wedding dress.

Her eyes were misty. "Oh, you kids did a wonderful job with the decorations! Everything looks so nice! Thank you so much." Paul grunted his agreement.

Hector smiled. "It was our pleasure, Mrs. The Gorilla. We're so happy for you two." Manny and Sammy walked up behind their mother and Paul.

Mrs. The Gorilla smiled, wiped her eyes, then grabbed Hector in a hug and started crying and thanking him again and again. Hector looked extremely uncomfortable, as did Manny. Everyone else tried not to laugh.

Mrs. The Gorilla let go of Hector and said "I'm sorry, I'm just… getting so emotional. Don't mind me." She turned around and hugged Paul, starting to cry again.

Manny cleared his throat. "Uh… think Sigmund and Natalie were wanting to congratulate you guys." He pointed to another table. His mother wiped her eyes. "Yes, of course. Thank you all again." She and Paul walked off.

Hector sat back down, still looking a little dazed. Sammy looked up at his brother. "Okay, go on."

Manny scowled. Sammy nudged him. "Do it. You said you would. C'mon, just this once."

Manny looked as if he was in pain for a second. Then, he opened his mouth. "You… guys did a good job with the decorations. And coming to my mom and Paul's wedding." It sounded as if he were choking the words out.

Sammy nudged him again. Manny cleared his throat. "Uh… thanks." He turned and hurried away.

The Company all looked at Sammy. He smiled. "Wow," Keith marveled. Sammy laughed. "I knew, deep down somewhere, that he had it in him."

The members of the Electric Company all laughed too as the faint sound of wedding bells drifted through the air.

-The End-
