Liveblogging "One Life To Live": The Big Day, Part Five "Fish Don't Fry In The Kitchen"

At long last, the moment has arrived. The wedding is about to commence and Oliver is not about to stay home and watch it on TV. Little does he know what's in store for him.

Join us for the fun (and this one is sure to be something special), and refresh for updates!

2:05PM EST: Oh great, we get a rewind of Nora and Bo throwing props against the wall, and ending in a kiss clinch.

We move over to the Halloween party where Roxy is dressed ... in a Roxy costume?

We get some Llanview history with the appearance of Andrew Carpenter, who will be conducting the mass wedding ceremony. If you want to know more about Andrew's history, and why it's such an important part of gay history on soaps, then click here.

2:10PM EST: Langston and Star show up and in an "awww" moment, Cole and Marko shows up to support them.

Oliver shows up (in uniform) and tells Kyle that he got his badge back. They need every availabale officer to keep on eye on the day player Phelps wannabes who are protesting.

Dorian announces that when she is elected mayor, her first official act will be to issue marriage licenses to every gay couple. Both Kyle and Oliver look at each other, shocked.

2:20PM EST: Matthew is on the verge of telling TBTD that he's at the same boarding school as her daughter, when Ross interrupts.

Meanwhile, Kevin almost catches Nora and Bo in mid-clinch.

Kyle asks Nick if he knew about the whole "it's going to be legal" thing, and Nick says "we'll still take this thing one step at a time. Nothing between us has to change".

Shane wants to go with Roxy to the wedding, and Gigi reluctantly agrees. Why are the kids in Llanview so cool?

Cris shows up to support Oliver, followed by Layla. Awkward!

2:25PM EST: This is hilarious. Cole and Marko are fixing each other's ties when one of the protesters (who I'm pretty sure is Jackie Hoffman) recognizes Marko and assumes the two of them are a gay couple. Marko and Cole go along with it, just to spite the protesters, and Langston and Star follow suit, pretending to be a lesbian couple. Oliver watches the happenings intently

2:35PM EST: I'm loving these flashbacks to the love history of DVTM and Dorian, especially when he was a ... buddhist monk.

Roxy and Shane show up at the wedding (and thank god Shane changed out of the Robin uniform), and Roxy gives Kyle a lucky rabbit's foot.

2:40PM EST: YES! HERE WE GO! The crowd is shouting "pervs on parade" when a Llanview cop comes up and says "good one. I'd rather be with you than protecting these homos". Oliver has finally had enough and starts shouting "What is wrong with you? What are you so afraid of? Are you afraid of me? Because guess what ... I'm one of those 'pervs'." Our FUB then turns around and continues "I'm one of those queers. I'm gay, and I'd rather be over here with people who love each other than all of you people who thrive on hate!. Roxy whispers "yes", while Kyle looks ... stunned.

Wow, I have to catch my breath.

2:50PM EST: Oliver goes on, yelling at the crowd that he doesn't care what they think, and he's proud to be exactly who he is, and he's proud to stand with all of the people who are standing up for their right to marry, and someday he will marry the person he loves.

Meanwhile, Kyle is making ... odd motions with the rabbit foot., and Cris and and Layla applaud , and now it's Nick's turn to look stunned. It seems to have gotten to Dorian, as well. Could she be having cold feet now?

2:55PM EST: Kyle sits down next to Oliver and says "I can't believe you said that, in front of all those people". Oliver says "I meant every word". Nick comes up and says "Kyle, c'mon, it's time to get married".

Kyle glances at Oliver.

Preview Time: Damn, we have to wait til Monday!

    Rex homage?

    Snicks is this supposed to be Oliver channelling Rex for Halloween?

    Nick looks great in that tux. 

    Poor Oliver...he asks if Kyle and Nick are moving in together. Heartbreaking.

    The Fish has a good question....

    Are they moving in together? Have they discussed this? Have they registered for a more attractive comforter?

    My Guess....

    .... that they haven't discussed what would happen after the wedding.  I would bet Kyle assumed things would stay as they are now since it wasn't legal.  I have no doubt Nick had other ideas.  Can't wait to hear/see what Kyle does now.

    They could have least told everyone where they were registered!

    I mean Kyle seems to be really low maintenance, but come on Nick is china pattern city all the way!

    Nick

    Well, Nick is only working off of a temporary teacher's salary. You always make sure your partner doesn't look better than you at events as a rule. Duh! ;-)

    I really really prefer what Kyle is wearing! Nick's tux just looks like every other tux. And I don't like bow ties. They are always lopsided anyways.

    Kyle looked hot and I wish Oliver had commented on it!

    But, weren't they supposed to be in 'matching tux'? Didn't Oliver say something along those lines to Cris?

    --------------------------------

    Would somebody hug OLIVER, already!?

    HA!

    Even if they are fake protestors on a show, they still make my blood boil. Booo!

    Is Jackie Hoffman one of the protestors?

    I'm thinking the Xanadu singer/funny lady is in the front row by the fence...
    snicks's picture

    yep..

    i'm pretty sure it's her.
    jsg03jd's picture

    Confirmed.

    That is indeed Miss Jackie H. of HAIRSPRAY and XANADU fame.
    Liz's picture

    xanadu?

    you mean the movie or the stage play?

    boyd's picture

    The stage musical

    Jackie played all the female authority figures, including Penny's mom...
    Liz's picture

    ok, thought so, seeing as i have seen...

    ok, thought so, seeing as i have seen the movie like 1,000 times. i thought "how could you not recognize someone from Xanadu?"

    :-P

    boyd's picture

    In Xanadu on stage

    Jackie played Caliope, one fo the evil sisters. She was Penny's mom et al in Hairspray...

    Liz's picture

    interesting...

    the stage version sounds definetely different than the movie version.
    jsg03jd's picture

    The stage version of XANADU is 100% different

    from the movie version.  It needs to be seen to be believed.  I'm still mourning its closing on Broadway.  I loved XANADU ON BROADWAY big time, and saw it a gazillion times...
    jsg03jd's picture

    In the end credits...

    ...she's billed as JACQUELINE HOFFMAN.  

    WERQ, MISS JACQUELINE!!!

    boyd's picture

    I SO love Jackie!

    It's definitely her! Maybe she'll belt out a little "Strange Magic" at the reception to symbolize her new-found acceptance...
    jsg03jd's picture

    EVIL WOMAN

    fits her character more right now... :o)

    Fish gotta fight!

      They are kept in separate bowl because if they are in the same bowl they will kill each other after tearing those beautiful fins to shreds.  Much like pit bulls in scuba gear.

    Let's hope that's not the case here....
