Original Commentary

Hey look, Jane is making a special cameo appearance... at the cafe she works at. Hmm... maybe it's not that special.

There are far too many 80's movies that start out with a bachelor getting a surprise bachelor party (sometimes without an actual wedding involved). Ok, I made that last part up... ok I made the last two parts up. I'm sure if such a movie existed in the 80's, I was (and probably still am) not allowed to watch it. That goes double for Brisbane, Jake and Robert. -Isabel

Modern Commentary
Yeah, nobody involved in planning the party or making the comic knows how these things are "supposed" to go.

Is it supposed to be a surprise? Is that just something that we picked up from sitcoms or late-night comedy movies?

It seems like that's a bad idea. It gives the groom plausible deniability but it also puts the groom in situations that require plausible deniability and that doesn't seem like a good trade-off - Terrence
