QUOTE:
"So there I was, just sitting, sort of alone. Chunk had
Connie. Tina had Jerry. Mom had... well... Ernesto. I'm going to have to
get used to that. Dad had... you get the idea. Seems like everybody has
somebody. Except me, of course." —Wally West |

SUMMARY: The Flash's mother is getting married. Mary West is
ready to spend her life with Ernesto Varni, the Italian secret agent she
has accompanied on so many adventures. On the day of their wedding,
Wally is stunned to see some of the guests in attendance. The eclectic
group includes various friends, costumed heroes, supervillains in
disguise, and, shockingly, Wally's presumed-dead father! When the
minister finds himself hopelessly stranded in traffic, it's up to the
fastest man alive to deliver him to the ceremony on time. Inspired by
the mood of the moment, Mason Trollbridge surprises girlfriend Leonora
MacDonald by proposing just moments before Mary and Ernesto exchange
their vows. It's spontaneously decided that the wedding should become a
double-wedding! Afterwards, at a reception with romance in the air, a
lonely Wally West can't help but reflect that everyone in attendance has
someone to be with. These downbeat thoughts are interrupted when the
lovely Linda Park unexpectedly takes a seat by his side.
