(Fade in to Meta Knight's cottage, seen from POV of DMS and Gooey.)
Gooey: Heh! Oh boy! Meta's gonna get the surprise of his life, huh, DMS?
DMS: Yep. This is his lucky day!
(DMS lets go of a branch, which swings back and hits Gooey in the mouth. DMS turns to the band, wedding guests and others, apparently just out off sight of Meta Knight's cottage.)
DMS: I'd like to thank you all for coming to my wedding. But first, I better go in there and... propose to the boy!
(Coo, Rick, and the others laugh heartily. Camera pans quickly to show The Three Mage-Sisters crying their eyes out.)
DMS: (To Gooey) Now, you Gooey. When Meta and I come out that door--
Gooey: Oh I know, I know! I strike up the band! (He turns and begins directing the band in "Here Comes the Bride." DMS slams a baritone over his head.)
DMS: Not yet!
Gooey: (From inside the instrument, with his lips sticking out the mouthpiece) Sorry!
(Cut to interior of cottage. Meta Knight is sitting in a chair reading his new book. There is a knock at the door. He puts the book down and walks to the door. He reaches up and pulls down a viewing device. He peeks through and sees an anachronistically accurate fish-eye view of DMS. He moans, and pushes the door open.)
Meta Knight: DMS, what a pleasant... surprise.
DMS: Isn't it though? I'm just full of surprises. You know, Meta. There's not a person in town who wouldn't love to be in your shoes. This is the day...(DMS pauses by a mirror and licks his teeth clean.) This is the day your dreams come true.
Meta Knight: What do you know about my dreams, DMS?
DMS: Plenty. Here, picture this. (DMS plops down in the chair and props his mud-covered feet up on Meta Knight's book. He begins to kick off his boots and wiggle his toes through his hole-y socks.) A rustic hunting lodge, my latest kill roasting on the fire, and my little husband, massaging my feet, while the little ones play with the dogs. (Meta Knight looks positively disgusted. DMS gets up next to his face.) We'll have six or seven.
Meta Knight: Dogs?
DMS: No, Meta! Strapping boys, like me!
Meta Knight: Imagine that. (He picks up his book, places a mark in it, and puts it on the shelf.)
DMS: And do you know who that husband will be?
Meta Knight: Let me think.
DMS: (Corners Meta) You, Meta!
Meta Knight: (Ducking under DMS's arms) DMS, I'm speechless. I really don't know what to say.
DMS: (Pushing chairs and things out of the way until he reaches Meta Knight and traps him against the door) Say you'll marry me.
Meta Knight: (Reaching for the doorknob) I'm very sorry, DMS, but I just don't deserve you. (He twists the knob and the door opens, causing DMS to lose his balance and tumble out the door and into a mud puddle.)
DMS: Whoa!
(The wedding band begins to play "Here Comes the Bride." DMS's boots are thrown out of the door and the door is slammed shut. Gooey, who is directing the band, looks down and sees DMS's legs sticking out of the mud, and Nelly the nruff's head sticking up. Gooey cuts off the band, and DMS's head pops up, with the pig on top of him. He tilts his head, and the pig slides down his back.)
Gooey: So, how'd it go?
DMS: (Picks up Gooey by the neck) I'll have Meta for my husband, make no mistake about that! (DMS drops Gooey into the mud.)
Gooey: (To Nelly) Touchy!
Nelly: Grunt Grunt.
(DMS storms off, muddy and furious, and the focus returns to the cottage. Meta Knight pokes his head out the door.)
Meta Knight: (To the tookeies) Is he gone? Can you imagine? He asked me to marry him! Me, the husband of that boorish, brainless... ♪Mister DMS, can't you just see it? Mister DMS, his little husband. No, sir! Not me, I guarantee it. I want much more than this provincial life...♪ (he walks into the pen and feeds the animals, then runs off singing into an open field overlooking a beautiful valley) ♪I want adventure in the great wide somewhere, I want it more than I can tell. And for once it might be grand... To have someone understand... I want so much more than they've got planned...♪
(Landia runs into the open field. Meta Knight looks at her, disturbed that Galacta Knight is not with her.)
Meta Knight: Landia! What are you doing here? Where's...? Where's Papa? Where is he, Landia? What happened? Oh, we have to find him, you have to take me to him!
(Meta Knight unhitches the wagon from Landia. Cut to exterior of the castle gate.)
