- Diane's has to get married within ten years of her father's death, or her mother loses her fortune. But there's one problem: she's only just learned of this fact, and the ten-year deadline is tomorrow.
- Diane's rich, snooty, eccentric "Mummy" comes waltzing into town with some unusual news for her daughter: Diane needs to get married by tomorrow or else Mummy will lose her share of her deceased husband's estate, a clause written into his will. Diane wants to help Mummy out, especially after Mummy's plea to Diane: "I'll never be broke. I'll either be rich or dead, the choice is yours." The problem is compounded by the fact that Diane has no steady that she can call even to go along with a marriage-in-name-only plan. Sam is suggested and he initially declines because he says that marriage changes people and their relationship regardless of if it's in name only. However, he ultimately agrees, with the ceremony to take place at the bar. Will the marriage vows change the nature of Sam and Diane's relationship? The problem that arises from the outcome of the wedding ceremony has a solution coming from an unexpected source, Mummy's long time chauffeur, Boggs.—Huggo
- Diane is surprised when her eccentric mother comes to town. Meeting Diane at Cheers, Mrs Chambers soon explains the real reason for her visit.10 years ago, Diane's father passed away, and placed a specific stipulation in his will: Unless Diane is married within 10 years of his death, her Mother will be cut off from the estate's money. As it just so happens, there's only a day or so left!
Diane claims there's noone she can think of marrying, when Carla plays devil's advocate and tells Mrs Chambers about Diane and Sam. Diane any feelings for Sam, and he the same. However, Mrs Chambers' verbal wailings about becoming destitute cause the two of them to consider marriage for her sake (with the promise of a quick annulment soon afterwards).
Mrs Chambers brings the Justice of the Peace to Cheers for the wedding, but the plan soon goes awry as Sam and Diane start bickering. Realizing this is a bad idea, Mrs Chambers halts the wedding, and stays at the bar as time expires, and she finds herself destitute.
As she is about to leave, her former chauffeur offers to marry her. Mrs Chambers is unsure, but when he claims he has a tidy some of money (from embezzling from the family fortune for 25 years), she is more than happy to consider his proposal.
