Dorothy walks next to Ada up the dirty path to a bunch of caravans and a crowd. It's John's wedding day, and Ada decided to go, with complains and a lot of persuasion from Dorothy, not wanting to miss her brother's wedding. Dora has asked Nick if he wanted to join them as well, but he denied, not thinking that he should go because of the lack of contact the Shelby's and he have, which is almost non existing.
"Do I really have to go?" Ada asks once again, she is still pissed at Tommy, but Dora just shakes her head, pushing the younger woman forward. "You're going, it's your brother's bloody wedding."
"But-" Starts Ada but Dora interrupts her once again. "Ada, if you don't go, you'll firstly miss John's wedding, and secondly you are going to think about every fucking problem you have right now, and that'll stress you out, which, as you know, is bad for your child."
"Fuck you." Mutters the younger brunette as they get closer to the crowd. Dora just smiles at Ada mockingly, as they stop next to Tommy.
Tommy meets Dora's eyes smiling at her warmly, thanking her with his eyes silently for bringing Ada.
"We're here today to join in matrimony, this man and this woman." Starts Johnny Doggs, who stands in front of the kneeling bride and groom at the front. Ada rocks on the balls of her feet between Tommy and Dora. Tommy nods at his sister. "You look well."
"... and harmony and togetherness." Sounds Johnny's voice from the front. The bride lifts the cloth from her face as Johnny Doggs continues. "Which is sanctioned and honored by the presence, and the power of these two families around us."
John looks back at the crowd smirking at his brothers, after he saw his wife to be's face.
"Do you John Michael Shelby take Esme Martha Lee to your beautiful wife?" Asks Johnny Doggs in the front.
Dora switches her attention from the couple in the front, to Tommy, not moving her eyes from the front though, when the man opens his mouth. "You got my invitation."
"Well, Dora said there's a truce." Answers the Shelby sister.
"Family day." Replies Tommy.
"Your husband couldn't make it?" Asks Tommy not looking at his sister as she looks at him. "He's not speaking to me. And when he does, he calls me, 'a fucking Shelby'. Even though I'm a Thorne now."
"A Thorne in my side that's for sure." Smiles Tommy.
"My God, Tommy. You admire him, don't you?" Asks Ada smirking, as Johnny Doggs keeps talking in the front.
"There remains one more part of the ceremony. That's the mingling of the two bloods." Announces Johnny happily. He takes out a knife, cutting boths hand, "Where the two families become one family."
Esme and John put the cutted hands together.
"I now pronounce you man and wife!" Calls Johnny Doggs opening his arms joyfully, which follows by cheering from the crowd. "Come one, John, kiss the bride, will you?"

Later that day, when the sun has gone, the Lee's and Shelby men celebrate the new bond between the Lee and Shelby family. Drunk men and women dance around without any worrys to an gypsie song.
Dora sits at a table, next to Tommy, smoking a cigarette while watching the crowd in front of her with an soft smile. John and Esme dance with the crowd cheering for them loudly, a firework is shot in the background.
Dora isn't much of a dancer so she doesn't even dare to try and dance. Dorothy's eyes shoot to Ada, hearing the womans loud laughters and her wild twirling with some Lee men. The woman furrows her eyebrows in worry for the Shelby sister.
Polly approaches the two her eyes still on the wildly dancing Ada, she stops behind them and leans down to Tommy. "You should tell Ada to slow down."
"You think she'll listen to me?" Huffs Tommy to the woman. Dorothy takes
"I tried to stop her but she's been drinking. She's been stuck in that little basement for weeks." Explains the woman.
Tommy meets Dora's eyes for a second before he takes another drag of his cigarette.
"What do you expect? She's going of like a firecracker." Explains Polly. They teh watch Ada how she turns around herself quite fast. "Oh, Christ, Tommy, please."
Dora pats Polly's arm in assurance and watches as Arthur approaches Ada. "Come her. Enough now. Enough."
Tommy walks over to the two as well now raising his arms to calm his sister down. "Ada, come on, have a rest. Sit down."
"Come and looks Esme! Look at the family you've joined!" Shouts Ada when Tommy stops in front of her and tries to stop her from continuing dancing like that.
"Come, look at the man who runs it! He chooses his brother's wives!" Dorothy gets up and follows Polly who walks up to Ada, stopping the girl from attacking her brother. "He hunts his own sister down like a rat and tries to kill his own brother-in-law."
"Ada that's enough." Tries Arthur to stop his sister. Dora stands on Ada's left side while Polly stands on her right side, both holding her arm, so she won't jump on Tommy.
"Now he won't even let me have a fucing dance! Not even at a fucking wedding!" Continues Ada her shouting.
"Sit her down." Instructs John who stands behind the three women.
Polly tries to push her down, to sit down. "Calm down, Ada. Ada, you must calm down."
Ada starts panting and Dora hears something dripping from the her. She looks down and her eyes widen. "Oh shit."
