After a short recap of the previous episode, Richard and Heather’s nuptials are in progress and they are pronounced the new Mr. And Mrs. Williams. Chandler, Peter, and Gwen congratulate the bride and groom. Peter asks to be the first to kiss the bride, but Heather says that since Chandler walked her down the aisle, he should be the first. Chandler and Heather kiss.

After deciding that she has seen enough of the happy couple, Gwen decides to leave the reception. Outside of the house, she runs into Jack (Jack Wagner), who has just flown in from London for the wedding. The chemistry is back between the two of them. Jack convinces Gwen to go back to the reception with him. Jenny tells Peter that Richard is buying a multimillion-dollar Internet company as a wedding present for his new bride (dress2K.com). Jack and Gwen talk about a photo that Heather has cropped Gwen out of. Chandler dances with Heather and the two of them decide to keep the baby a secret, for Richard’s sake. Later, Peter dances with Heather and they share some unkind words. Chandler dances with Samantha. Jack later escorts the women home and reminds Jenny and Laurie that they have to meet David O’Conner the next day. He is a friend of Jacks that Gwen has hired to manage the club Pulse. Jack and Gwen talk about old times. Richard tells Peter that he must follow his orders and buy the company for Heather and that he must help Heather run it.

Peter later wakes up Chandler and implies that Richard and Heather are having wild sex. Chandler becomes uncomfortable with that thought. Heather is uncomfortable about going to Hawaii. An unsuspecting David gets ready to surf on the beach, when he meets Laurie. The two start off the relationship on the wrong foot.

Back at the office, Sam finds Peter in Richards chair. Chandler arrives for an emergency board meeting, which is to get the board to agree to stop the acquisition of dress2K.com. Chandler votes to not stop the buy. A unanimous vote is needed. Peter gives Chandler until Friday to change his mind.

In Maui, Heather gets grumpy with the bellboy after remembering the times that she and Chandler shared there. Jack introduces Jenny and Laurie to David. Jenny is obviously smitten with David. Meanwhile in the workout room, Peter brings up the fact the Heather is going to take over the company; Chandler gets upset when he suggests that heather will get pregnant with Richard’s child.

The next day, Peter shows up at Gwen’s Garden Society Lunch by announcing that he is donating $50,000 to their cause in honor of his mother. Laurie is suspicious and Jenny says that he just wants their mothers help in changing Chandler’s mind. Gwen does not say if she will or not. In Hawaii, Richard and Heather are about to go diving, when Heather tells Richard that she is not feeling well and he needs to go without her. Later, Gwen and Sam are getting a massage and Sam insists that she will try to change Chandler’s mind. Later that night, Gwen has dinner with Jack. Jack becomes uncomfortable when Gwen asks him to stay and fight with the family, he says it’s not his thing. Peter shows up and interrupts and gets no information from Gwen on changing Chandler’s mind. Jack leaves. Sam and Chandler talk and he brings Sam to his side of the vote.

The next morning on the beach, Laurie runs into David and the two decide to keep it strictly business. Gwen says goodbye to Jack at the airport and the two stare at each other as she drives away. Later that night, Sam goes to Chandler to confess that she was trying to change his mind, but he already knew. They talk some more and finally kiss. The phone rings and it is Heather. She talks to him about being in Maui and being reminded of him. He hangs up on her. Heather tells Richard that she wants to go home and he says that they will leave in the morning.

The End.
