Well, we did it - we finally tied the knot! I said it was going to happen.
The ceremony was awesome. It was nice enough with D-Mom and our kids and all our relatives there: Cedar as our ring-bearer, Misty as our flower pal, Raj and Nicole as our sims of honour, and Ava's parents John and Marlene attending too. But it got even better, 'cause halfway through, B-Mom came striding into the church looking cool as hell (I'd sent an invitation to her email but I never really thought she'd come, since she's been gone for so long). But she showed up, she officiated, and she and D-Mom didn't even fight.
We had a great time, but it was also crazy busy. You can't turn off being a parent, even for a day - Osc-man got out of his suit and ran around the church during the ceremony, and Erica would have cried non-stop if D-Mom hadn't been there to soothe her.

Heart to Heart
After Molly reveals that Rick was involved with the paranormal and Fi is left upset, Papa Bear stays for a bit to console her.
In an early Strange Geometry script, Papa Bear’s attempt to ease the mood includes him making light of something that already happened to him.
Fi mentions his heart attack at the start of the episode, but his heart transplant hasn’t occurred, and the version of John we see at the end of the season in Transplant is very different than how we leave him here.
The line didn’t make Strange Geometry’s final cut, but the writers were so thoughtful about their arcs and plots that two mentions of a heart attack in one episode might not have been a coincidence.
It could have been a nod to the audience as if to say don’t forget this detail about John, it’s going to be important later.

John Lennon always comforted people who were grieving because he knew the feeling so well:
"There was one thing about John Lennon. In his steel-trap mind, he never forget what was important to people. Fast forward to May 1975. I had become an anchorman in Philadelphia, and combined with a radio station, our TV station sponsored what was called the "Helping Hand Marathon", a weekend-long radio fund-raiser to benefit area charities, including the one most important to me, the battle against multiple sclerosis (n/t: Larry Kane's mom passed away in 1964 because of sclerosis). With the help of our sales manager, Gene Vassall, I was able to put together a real coup — John Lennon to cohost the marathon for the weekend. From the time I picked him up at the railroad station to his departure on Sunday night, John was sensitive, giving and tireless. On the phone days ahead of the event, he said "Larry, I know this is being done in memory of your mother. I will make this happen and it will be great, baby!".
ㅡ Larry Kane in the book "Memories of John Lennon" by Yoko Ono.
"I've always admired him, and was very proud of the friendship we had together, and the first time John really showed his love for me was after Stuart's death, when he helped me such an awful lot to try and understand my loss —and his as well — and we used to talk about Stuart, and he really got me together again. He wasn't like Paul or George, who felt really sorry for me, and said "Oh, everything will be fine". John just said — it to me one day when I was really, really down and didn’t know what to do — he said "Well, you have got to decide what you want: Do you want to live or do you want to die? Decide that, but be honest". And that helped me tremendously to go on. And then he said that there are so many things we haven't even discovered yet, and life has got to go on, and you can't sit down and cry all the time, you have got to get on, and if it's not for me, he said, it's for Stuart. And he said that in a very harsh voice, not like nice and sweet, but very directly, so that was the real John who was talking. And that made me really think twice about it. It
helped me tremendously. That is what I'm still thankful for (...)"
ㅡ Astrid Kirchherr in the book "Memories of John Lennon" by Yoko Ono.
"While they were there, Lily's father, William White, succumbed to a heart attack at age sixty-seven. Over the past few years, Mal had shared with her how intimidating John could be, so Lil was surprised when the Beatle brought her a cup of tea, let down his guard, and showered her with consolation. Like Mal, Lily would always remember John's tender gesture. 'It's very hard at times like these to give verbal comfort to anybody,' Mal wrote, 'but John was fantastic, and I knew that he gave Lil a lot of comfort in her hour of need — something I have always blessed him for.'"
ㅡ Mal Evans in his diary, from the book "Living The Beatles Legend" by Kenneth Womack.
