An Earth hour passed like any normal Earth hour.

"All right, female, you agreed," Zim growled impatiently.

"Gaz, don't do this!" Dib cried out in horror. "He's going to marry you and take you to his home planet as a badge of honor to his alien race!"

Gaz glared deviously at her panic-stricken brother. "I'll play along with his little ceremony for a while. Then he'll shut up, and you'll shut up, and I'll be able to play my games in PEACE!"

"Anything you say, my scary Earth-…" Zim reconsidered that statement when Gaz's glare shifted from her brother to her fiancée. "Umm, let's go."

All Dib could do was sit there as his fiercest enemy led his sister away. Now the Earth was doomed, and doomed by his own blood at that. And deep down inside, there was something else that didn't want Dib to see Zim committed to anyone, human or otherwise, but he wasn't sure why as to the latter.

He picked up the "Mysterious Mysteries" tape Zim recorded for him the other day and decided to watch it again (for lack of a plan to crash the unholy union). It had been a really good episode, too – it was so nice of Zim to care when nobody else did, even if he was only using Dib…

Something came over Dib that made him drop the tape and head out the door, saying, "Plan or no plan, I've got to stop that wedding!"

Meanwhile, Zim stood (undisguised) in his base before the Tallest on his computer screen. Gaz – decked out in a blood-red wedding dress and veil – sat in Zim's computer chair, playing her GS2, apparently oblivious (or more likely, apathetic) to the alien activity around her.

"That's your bride?" Red snickered.

"Earth creatures are so… short," Purple spat with disgust.

"You said I could be an Invader again if I married one of the human scum," Zim replied.

"Very well." Red reluctantly opened a giant book that bore the Invader symbol. "Dearly beloved, we gather here today…"

"WAHOO!" Gir squealed, spinning his little black bowtie.

"Silence!" Zim screeched before turning back to the Tallest and standing next to Gaz, who was still absorbed in the video game.

"Do you, Zim, take this…Earthling…to be your intergalactic bride?" Red continued as Purple tried not to laugh.

Zim pondered that seemingly obvious question – did he really want to spend his remaining days with Dib's scary sister? Not really, if anything, he would rather end up with…Dib. The big-headed boy was, after all, the only one in the entire universe who took him seriously… and understood him. Zim hesitated.

"Hurry up and say it so I can go home," Gaz ordered.

Just then, Dib popped out of nowhere, screaming, "Don't do it, Zim!"
