What Does Alan Whisper To Barbara Ann ?


What does Alan whisper to Barbara Ann before she cuts the groom off the wedding cake? I can't make it out. Thanks! :o)

reply

right after her new husband says, "cut the cake, baby," Alan mouths "baby" back at her in kind of an ironic raised-eyebrow fashion.

doc: these are o.r. scrubs.
max: oh, are they?

Thank you michellecom!

OH. I THOUGHT IT WAS "MARRY ME" =] =] =] =]

He does it twice in the movie. I think Alan is mouthing the words "Baby bear," because that's what Barbara likes to call Bob.

I thought he whispered "Mollymauk," his nickname in the film.

Agreed - he also mouths something in the same way at Barbara Ann at the end of the sweatergasm scene, which is a little easier to read as Mollymauk.

"Come on, pelican!"
