Plot[]
SPOILER: Plot details follow.
Bloo becomes convinced that Mac is going to get married, so he tries to act like an adult for him. This does not work, however, so Bloo gets mad and tries to break up the wedding. But it turns out that Mac's not the one getting married--Mac explains that the wedding is actually for his cousin, Tammy, and that he's simply the ring bearer. The two of them escape and plan to ruin Duchess' tea party like they intended at the start of the episode.
