Plot summary

Earl's ex-wife marries Darnell Turner ( Eddie Steeples ); Randy is invited but Earl is not. Doubling the insult, Joy schedules the wedding on Earl's birthday so that all of their friends will be unable to celebrate with him. A drunken Earl crashes the party, accidentally breaking Joy's nose, and adds "ruined Joy's wedding" to his list. While he is trying to help her out on plans for a second, better wedding so she would forgive him, he ends up sleeping with Joy. When Darnell hears this, he is upset at first but then forgives Earl saying, "Hey, you weren't mad when I did it to you."
