At the reception Jenny argues ethics with Ted's friend Rodney Sillitoe who owns a chicken factory, his wife Betty gets drunk, and melancholy widower Neville Badger tells anyone who will listen how much he misses his wife. Rita's father embarrasses her in front of Laurence, making her lament that the Rodenhursts must look down on her; she's unaware that Ted and Liz are having sex in one of the hotel rooms. When Jenny announces that she's pregnant, social niceties vanish and Ted's other son, brusque would-be philosopher Elvis, punches Jenny's estate-agent brother Simon.
