Synopsis by Hal Erickson
On the eve of his marriage to Alice's sister Agnes, Stanley Saxon, a fellow member of Ralph's lodge, is given a stern lecture by Ralph, asserting that the husband is always "the king of the castle." As a result, mild-mannered Stanley tries to exert his new-found superiority on Agnes, nearly ending the marriage before it has even started. Regretting the mess that he's made -- and worried that Agnes will move into the Kramden apartment permanently -- Ralph, with the help of his pal Ed, stages an elaborate charade, extolling the pleasures and rewards of married life. Need we add that, in the process, Ralph comes to appreciate his own wife Alice all the more? Best line: "Boris Karloff seems like a nice guy when he's dancing on The Red Skelton Show. . .You ever seen him in Frankenstein? That's the real Boris Karloff!" First telecast on February 25, 1956, "Here Comes the Bride" was written by Marvin Marx and Walter Stone.
