Summary: Will's soon-to-be-married cousin falls ill and sends her slightly clueless fiance to get the wedding plans underway. Will gets Grace to help him out, but Grace ends up taking over the preparations, right down to the dress. Will notices how Grace is acting and after his cousin shows up, he finds Grace in the dressing room wearing the wedding gown and wondering if she'll ever be married. Will does his best-friend comforting role and convinces Grace to get out of the dress.

Meanwhile, Karen and Will bond when they discover they are reading the same book, and soon Jack feels cut out of their lives completely. After making a scene at the book signing, Karen and Will stage a pretend fight where it seems as if they've stopped being friends, thus causing Jack to do a happy dance in the hallway.


Did You Notice...
~This is the second time this season that the word "balls" has replaced "bells" in the title. The first was the episode "Jingle Balls".
~The book Will and Karen read, "The Marriage of Equals" by Rita Pigeon, is not a real book.
