[glass shatters]
- Well, with the one hockey dog found,
That's four victims this week.
No link besides the scratches on their palms.
- Don't bother, summers.
Flute's already deep in his crime mind.
Or chasing the mailman.
- Welcome to "are you smarter than a murderer?"
I'm steve harvey,
And this is the best game show
I've ever hosted this week.
Let's meet our contestant. - Hi, I'm marvin flute.
I'm excited to play and more excited to win,
Because I never lose anything, except my wallet,
My temper, and my virginity at 13 to a vacuum cleaner.
Sent me to the er, but still,
First in my friend group to lose it, so I won.
- Would love to delve into that,
But I'm hosting "celebrity pasta slurp-off,"
And leighton meester ain't gonna wait for that bucatini.
Let's play! Spanx on the floor. [buzzer dings]
- The victim had been trying to squeeze into a slim dress.
- Correct. [bell dings]
Wine stain on her purse.
- Based on the spatter pattern, that stain could only come
From one thing: Someone who barely touched their dinner,
Had a few too many, and is drunkenly flailing
On a dance floor to "ymca."
- Correct. And in that purse, there was rice.
- She went to a wedding!
- Congratulations. You won a possible lead.
- So is there a regular "slurp-off,"
Or is it just celebrities, and where can I send my slurp tape?
And wait, there's-- I have more questions.
The vic went to a wedding the night of her murder.
- The other victims had also recently attended weddings.
- And they all had scratches on their palms,
As if they were clamoring to grab a wedding bouquet!
Someone's targeting bouquet catchers.
Looks like we got ourselves a serial killer.
- Yeah, we really gotta stop doing that.
[tense music]
- Okay, I'll make this fast.
- Make it fast, would you? - Yes.
- Thanks. - The bouquet butcher's
On the loose, and there's a big wedding this week.
- How big? - Very big.
The killer will be there-- - and so should we.
- We catch that bouquet-- - well, we catch the killer.
- Any questions?
- Why are we walking in a circle?
- Listen up.
We're going undercover at a wedding,
And we need to send in the detective
Who gives us the best chance to catch the bouquet--
Me!
I'm built for this.
- Oh, I'm excited to see you in action.
You haven't been out in the field since way back
When clarissa explained it all.
- You're in for a treat.
Back in the day, I won an award for best undercover detective.
The award is undercover as a clock.
Flute, you and I will go as a couple.
- Oh, you two do look like a couple.
A couple of people who definitely aren't a couple.
- Don't worry, I can fake sexual chemistry with anything.
Watch this.
[everyone oohs]
- Martinez? - Whatever you need, chief.
I can be the flower girl, dj.
Maybe you bake me in the cake, I pop out, cuff the perp--
- You're gonna be the pastor. - Got it.
Just enrolled in seminary school.
- The rest of you will be going undercover
As the wedding band.
- I don't know, chief.
Don't you think we're a little too big
To be going undercover as a wedding ring?
- I got this. Hey, summers.
Hey, you got something on your neck, buddy.
- Oh, that's just my power-- [speech slurring]
- As the wedding band,
You'll have the perfect vantage point
From the stage to spot anything suspicious.
And to get you ready,
I hired the best music teacher in grimsburg!
[upbeat keytar solo]
- You are no longer detectives!
From today henceforth you will be known as wed zeppelin.
- I haven't been to a wedding since I officiated mine.
Saved a ton, skipped the boring parts,
And nobody got to tell me when I could
Or could not kiss the bride.
Not starting my marriage
Getting ordered around by a virgin.
- Hey. I'm terry, uncle of the bride.
- I'm mark milkshack, and this is my girlfriend,
Teresa smoothé.
- I don't see you on the list.
How do you know the couple?
- Uh...
I'm the mother of the bride. [chuckles]
- So you're my sister?
- [laughs] you think your sister
Is the bride's actual mother?
She's been lying to you this whole time, uncle terry,
Or should I say, terry, the guy who got duped
Into working the door at a stranger's wedding
When he could be out on the lake windsurfing.
- You're right!
Whoo-hoo-hoo! [laughs]
- You know, I feel bad her uncle is gonna miss this,
But statistically, he's probably a pervert.
- Remember, keep an eye out for anyone suspicious.
- Hey, no sitting on the equipment!
Does that say "chair" on it?
- I mean, do any chairs?
- I'm guessing you're the a/v guy?
- No, I'm the a/v guy.
I just did four weddings back-to-back.
Lemme tell ya,
It was murder.

What if I came to your house and dropped your baby
On its head?

- Agree to disagree.
- Where the hell have you been?
I've been waiting in the practice room!
- We're not actually gonna practice.
I thought we were just lip-syncing.
- But it must be believable.
Because if one person does not believe
We are a real band playing cover songs,
The entire operation will be compromised!
Now to the practice room.
The work starts yesterday!

- Let's keep an eye out for anything suspicious.
Or those tiny little hamburgers.
Oh, and this is really important:
Make sure you throw away the napkins,
So they don't know how many we've already had.
- By the way, I know I kind of beefed it before,

Harmony didn't catch the bouquet.

- You saw her catch a bouquet.
But what you didn't know was
That the pastor wasn't licensed.
She's an undercover officer, which means--
- Which means their marriage wasn't official,
So the bouquet was devoid of all matrimonial magic.

I am a licensed officiant.
