"Who's clothes are in the closet did someone forget them?'Mike asks
"Mike there for you!'says Tad"Dottie picked that out .She said to tell you she left the tags on and if you don't like any they can be exchanged!"
"These are all for me? Wow cool a hockey jersey! and a football Jersey and this pants are rad!'
"Glad you like them !Dottie picked them out the day before our wedding!The only thing I insist is that you show modesty with those low wasted pants and wear a belt we don't want to embarrass the ladies in this house.Oh and pajama pants and shirts must be warn outside of this room!I hate to bring this up but we also have a rule in this house that no one enters anyone elses bedroom without knocking! If there's a set time for studying you want then you let everyone know and we will try to respect that and not disturb you!'
'I'll try hard to follow the rules Mr."says Mike afraid that all these wonderful things will disppear
"Mike your family! There's bound to be a few problems adjusting but if you find any please come talk to me! You never have to be afraid okay I'll always listen !'says Tad
"Aw okay!' says Mike trying to get rid of Tad before he shows emotion!"I'm kind of tired I'm just going to nap for awhile if that's okay?'
"Sorry Buddy I should have realized see you later for lunch come down when you're ready okay!'says Tad contrite and leaving Mike's room shutting the door
Mike looks around and says to himself
"I wonder how long this will last this time before they decide they don't want me?'
Tad in his bedroom seeing if Dottie needs anything
"There that's the control for the electric blanket and here's the remote for the tv !'Tad says
"Tad quit worrying I'm fine "says Dottie smiling
"I was terrified when that maniac kidnapped you and Kathy !'Tad admits
"It's okay now Jesse will find him and we'll all be fine!'says Dottie "how is Mike settling in did he like his clothes and room?'
"Yes but I can tell he's not comfortable yet!"says Tad
"It will take some time Tad !Remember how you told me it took time for you to believe the Martin's wanted you!'says Dottie
"I don't want to leave you guys alone so Ma.ma's coming for awhile well I go back up to visit Kathy this evening!'says Tad
"Don't be bringing her fast food Tad unless you get it from my restaurant .My chef knows how to make heart smart foods!It's on our menu if you look!'says Dottie'what's more they taste devine!It wouldn't hurt you to start thinking about eating some heart smart foods either!'says Dottie
"I all ready found that out that's where I got the food I brought her yesterday!What would you like for dinner I could go to your restaurant and have them make anything you want !'says Tad
"Oh Tad says Dottie giggling "I thought I was marrying a man who cooked !
"I'll show you cooking !'he says laughing and gently taking her in his arms and kissing her!
"Dad I'm home!'yells Jenny interrupting the growing passion between Dottie and Tad
"What is she doing home so early?asks Tad straightening his clothes and buttoning his shirt as Dottie puts her nightgown back on
"This can't be good!'says Dottie

“Yes Daddy you did !'says Emily-Ann trying to mollify him
“Weeze late late for a very important date!"says Billy Clyde a tossing something to Emily-Ann
and we see as she looks at it:

Dorthea Thorton and Thaddeus Martin request your prescence in honor of their wedding taking place at :
St.Peter’s Bascillica
600 Main Street
Happy Valley
California
Time: 4 pm
Reception to follow at Dorothy’s fine dining
603 Main Street
Happy Valley

But we won’t be late at all will we Tad Martin!says Billy Clyde evily"Cause my revenge is going to rain down on you!"
Flashback to the wedding as we hear the wedding march and Dottie comes down the aisle to stand by Tad!
Thaddeus and Dorothea., have you come here freely and without reservation to give yourselves to each other in marriage?
“We do!"Dottie and Tad answer
Will you love and honor each other as man and wife for the rest of your lives?
“We do!"Dottie and Tad answer
Will you accept children lovingly from God, and bring them up according to the law of Christ and his Church?
“We do!"Dottie and Tad answer giggling a little
Since it is your intention to enter into marriage, join your right hands, and declare your consent before God and his Church.
“Do you Dorothea take Thaddeus James Martin to be your lawfullly wedded husband to have and to hold until death due you part?’asks the priest

I Dottie take you , take you Tad to be my husband, my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our union and love you more each day than I did the day before. I will trust you and respect you, laugh with you and cry with you, loving you faithfully through good times and bad, regardless of the obstacles we may face together. I give you my hand, my heart, and my love, from this day forward for as long as we both shall live.says Dottie"
In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, take and wear this ring as sign of my love and faithfulness. This ring I give to you as a token of my love and devotion to you. I pledge to you all that I am and all that I will ever be as your wife. With this ring, I gladly marry you and join my life to yours.”says Dottie

Do you take Dorothea to be your lawfullly wedded wife to have and to hold until death due you part?’asks the priest of Tad
I, Tad , take you, Dottie, to be my lawfully wedded wife, my constant friend, my faithful partner and my love from this day forward. In the presence of God, our family and friends, I offer you my solemn vow to be your faithful partner in sickness and in health, in good times and in bad, and in joy as well as in sorrow. I promise to love you unconditionally, to support you in your goals, to honor and respect you, to laugh with you and cry with you, and to cherish you for as long as we both shall live.says Tad

And now the giving and taking of rings says the priest
“In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, take and wear this ring as sign of my love and faithfulness. “I give you this ring as a symbol of my love and faithfulness. As I place it on your finger, I commit my heart and soul to you. I ask you to wear this ring as a reminder of the vows we have spoken today, our wedding day.”says Tad putting on Dottie’s ring on her finger
“Lord, bless these rings which we bless in your name! Grant that those who wear them may always have a deep faith in each other.May they do your will and always live together in peace, good will, and love. We ask this through Christ our Lord.”says the priestAll respond “Amen”

And then in unison Tad and Dottie say to each other ”Entreat me not to leave you, or to return from following after you, For where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people, and your God will be my God. And where you die, I will die and there I will be buried.Dottie laughs here nervously and adds “Beside Dixe as well!’ as they continue May the Lord bless us and keep our union strong and fruitful!Amen

”Does anyone have just case to prohibt this union ?asks the priest
No one says anything
“You have declared your consent before the Church. May the Lord in his goodness strengthen your consent and fill you both with his blessings.
What God has joined, men must not divide.

Everyone says” Amen!’ as Tad and Dottie smile
“I now give you Mr.and Mrs.Thaddeus Martin you may now kiss the bride says the priest as Tad kisses Dottie.
Opal dabs her eyes an so does Jenny
“I thought I’d never see this” says Jenny”now Tad can be as happy as we are!’ she says to Greg
“ Tad and I are going to take some time now for pictures but we are hoping you’ll join us in two hours for a reception at Dorothy’s next door!’says Dottie

As everyone gets up to leave.And go out to the park to await the reception milling about!

Tad and Dottie go into the livingroom.10 minutes later Tad is worried
“What could be keeping them so long? What if she foolishly doesn’t like my Kathy and Jenny!’What if Jenny says the wrong thing about us!’
“Tad it will be okay how could she not approve us were the perfect foster parents!’says Dottie comfortingly
just then Sylvia comes in and says
“Contingent and your wedding on Friday I think we can certainly approve you both as foster parents”“Might I dare to say you are exceptional candidates if only all our children could be so well placed!’

“Hi Rose it’s Jenny!

“I don’t know but I wish they would see these children are in danger and remove them before they can harm these children physically and mentally!’
“Can I see him?’asks Tad
“Yes I think Michael would like that!’says Melissa“even if you aren’t family I’ll allow!“
‘Thanks!’ Melissa Tad says just as they bring in Michael’s father!’
“That’s the scum who did this what’s he doing here?’asks Tad looking like he wants to strangle him
“He got beat up Mr.Martin were getting medical care before we take him to jail!’says Natalia
“HA you reap what you sow!You monster how does it feel to get beat up how would you like to be a trusting little boy that his father beats!Doesn’t feel good does it?’says Tad angrily to the man”Get the scum out of my sight.
‘Wants and warrants for one Ray Girder.Murder, racketeering, fraud, assault !'says Brot to Natalia
“Your going away for a long time MR.’says Natalia as he tries to take a run at Natalia
“Add resisting arrest and assault of a police officer!’as she and Brot help the nurse restrain Mr.Girder!
David checks him over and says “he’ll live more’s the pity! You can take him to jail!’
Tad is in with Mike talking to him
"so I‘m Tad and your Mike!"
”Yes! So !'says Mike defiantly
”So how you feeling?‘asks Tad
”Okay! He‘s not coming back is he? My Dad he can‘t hurt me can he I heard him in the hall!‘says Mike frightened
”No he won‘t I promised you that remember!‘says Tad
”You won‘t be able to live up to that promise they‘ll put me in foster care and he‘ll just come get me and we‘ll move."
”When I was your age my Dad did the same thing to me!‘
”You don’t have to lie to me! You‘re dressed nice your Dad was some fine upstanding citizen!‘says Mike
”My Biological father who raised me until he dumped me in a park was a criminal! he was a ra..pist ,a murderer , a pennyante criminal with illusions of grandeur!"
“Geesh tell me waht you really think of him!"says Mike
“My biological father Ray Gardner was an evil man he broke my arm and left me for dead in a park.Sound familiar? He was evil incarnate he tried to blackmail the nice people who took me in and then he r.a,,ped my adoptive mother! So I do understand! says Tad quietly
“They must have been nice people taking you the child of a criminal in and you bringing all that grief on them!"says Mike
“They the Martins, are the salt of the earth .My mother Ruth and my father Joe are people who have hearts so big that they took me in as their own and raised me.They love me I am not their adopted son but their son!’
“You were lucky I’ve never had that kind of luck no one wants me not my father he hates me!"says Mike”I’m going to end up going into one of them holes again that they call foster homes!The last time in one of those I might as well have stayed with my Dad I was beaten and stuck in a closet for two days without food.And you know who came got me out my Dad!"
“What if you had a good place to stay someone who had a family that treated you like family?’asks Tad
“That would be nice but it won’t happen !'says Mike
“Just maybe something good is coming your way!’says Tad
“Yes right !'says Mike”and pigs fly!’
Just then Tad overhears in the hall as Mike turns pale and looks scared!

“I’m Sylvia Swanson from childcare services I understand there’s a child here who has been injured by a parent!’”I’d like to speak with the doctor in charge!
“That would be Dr.Melissa Dillon!says David pointing at Melissa down the hall
“my name is Sylvia Swanson!I’m with childcare services I understand you have one Michael Girder in your care .We’ve been investigating his father for awhile but he was always moving making it difficult to track him!’
“Then maybe you should have taken Michael away!’ says Tad pointedly
“And you are? asks Sylvia with an edge to her voice
‘Tad Martin entrepreneur ,business mogul.P.I. says Tad trying to impress
“And your interest in this business Mr.Martin asks Sylvia pointedly eyes narrowing
“I found him in the park and chased his father away keeping him from killing him!”says Tad
“Wonderfully commendable, I’m sure Mr.Martin ,but your job is done shouldn’t you be leaving?’
“Look Ms.Swanson we got off on the wrong foot I just want to make sure this boy is safe!When I was a child my father did what his did !I know how it feels to be a powerless child against a father who treats you like a punching bag!Does she have any relatives?’asks Tad
“No he doesn’t “says Slyvia softening alittle after Tad’s confession”his mother died last year from breast cancer!’We are probably going to have to send him to foster care when he gets out of the hospital.”
“I could provide that!’ says Tad impulsively
“I’m sure you could Mr.Martin but don’t you think you should consult your wife before taking a child with these kind of psychlogical problems caused by an abusive parent!
“I’m not married”says Tad
“Oh then I’m afraid discussing foster care is inapprorpriate my office prefers to place children with two parents!"says Slyvia
“Well that’s okay because Tad and are engaged were planning on getting married very soon!"says Dottie coming up and hearing the conversation
“Well as long as you’re leaving in the home ,a wedding date is set soon, and the home checks out !You and Ms.?
“Dorthea Thorton I’m the owner downtown of Dorothy’s fine dining and Dottie’s coffee !Dottie says introducing herself
"Oh I’m very familiar nice places both of them! Sylvia says impressed “of course there would be credit checks .I’m sure that such upstanding citizens would have no problem .do you live together?’
“No you see I’m a bit old fashion I beleive that a couple should be married before they live together”says Dottie covering
“Very admirable in this day and age however to release the child in your care you’ll need to be under the same roof!’
“Why don’t we move up the wedding Dottie ?asks Tad getting desperate looking at the little boy Michael!”Say Friday I’m sure that Michael won’t be released until next week will he Melissa?
“No he won’t !’says Melissa
“Yes Tad let’s get married Friday!’ says Dottie smiling
“Very well we need to set up some checks how’s tomorrow for the home check Mr.Martin? at 2pm?"asks Sylvia
“That will be fine !'says Tad”we’ll be there won’t we Dottie?’
“Yes we’ll be there!'says Dottie agreeing as Mike looks on and smiles
