Tonight's show picks up with the exact same scene as last week's. Kate tells the guys about how she met her fiance in New York. She tells them he's a pilot in the Navy. She then brings him inside to introduce him to everyone. They're all kind of surprised to see how young and handsome Kate's fiance is. Drew goes into the kitchen to make a margarita for the guy, Kirk, but he's unable to make one because he's upset about the situation at hand.
Down at the Warsaw, Drew's talking to Lewis and Oswald about his frustration with trying to talk to Kate about the wedding. It seems she's been trying to avoid talking to him about it. Kellie convinces him of talking to her, so Drew decides to go and find out where she is.
Later that night, Kate comes by Drew's to pick up a punch bowl, but she's surprised to find Drew is sitting next to it. He tricked her into coming by so that he can talk to her. As he talks to her, Drew learns that she and Kirk will be moving to Guam. Getting desperate, Drew tricks Kate into going into his basement, and he quickly locks the door, preventing her of getting out.
At the Warsaw, Kellie asks Steve to do something which she enjoyed as a kid. He reluctantly starts blowing on her stomach, making all sorts of noises, just as Mimi comes in. Drew then walks in and tells Lewis, Oswald, and Kellie about how he locked Kate in his basement. Kellie thinks Drew has gone too far with it, but Drew wants to put off the wedding until he knows more about Kirk. A few seconds later, Kirk comes in and the guys grill him about his life, in hopes of finding out some dirt.
At Drew's house, Nicki comes downstairs to get something to eat and finds out Kate is locked in the basement. Kate asks her to unlock the door, but she refuses since Kate seems to be much happier in life than Nicki is.
Several hours later, and several pitchers of beer later, the guys are still grilling Kirk. He eventually admits to cheating on his wife with her best friend. Kate then comes in and asks everyone except for Drew to leave. She and Drew get into a bit of a heated argument and it eventually turns sad when Drew tells her she won't go to the wedding and be the best man.
The next day, everyone except for Drew is at church in preparation for the wedding. When Kate begins to walk down the aisle, Drew comes in and walks her down the aisle to make her happy.
Back at home, Drew, Lewis, and Oswald are starting to fall asleep because it's about 3am. Lewis and Oswald consider leaving, but decide to stay when they see that Drew's not ready to crash for the night; he still has his mind set on Kate.
The show ends with a series of bloopers.
While it was absolutely terrible to see Kate leave the series, I think they did a decent job of making for an mildly interesting episode. The end was a bit emotional, I admit, but giving Kate the boot was a huge mistake.moreless
AIRED:
Kate plans to marry Kirk, a fighter pilot whom she has only known for two weeks. They will move to Guam, where he is stationed. He has already been divorced once, and seems to have a predisposition toward cheating on his girlfriends. Drew suddenly decides that he cares about Kate again, and tries to do whatever is necessary to keep her from making a huge mistake. He locks Kate in the basement, but Nicki lets her out. Kate insists that she knows what she is doing. Drew doesn't want to attend her wedding, but shows up to give her away.moreless

TRIVIA (2)
ADD TRIVIA-
As another viewer pointed out, Mimi had to go through channels to have her previous marriage (two weeks to Eddie Money, 20 years earlier) annulled in the episode "Drew's Stomachache" in order for her marriage to Steve to be recognized by the Catholic church.
-
Kirk and Kate have a Catholic wedding, but in real life, there is no way a Catholic wedding would have been able to happen after knowing someone for two weeks because of all the premarital counseling required by the religion. Things would have been even more complicated since Kirk is a divorcee.
