And this is the line that killed it: 'OK so you're freaking out because the man you're about to marry parades back into town and you feel like you don't know him anymore.'
Is this the only idea RIB could come up with for Wemma's relationship: a total deconstruction? I just can't buy it because they've built Wemma's love over 4 LONG years and as Coach Bieste described it, their's is 'a blue ribbon love'. It is of the highest quality and it's not just going to mysteriously evaporate.
According to previous dialogue they were seeing each other every other weekend and Emma looked VERY IN LOVE with him when WIll appeared for sectionals. Since Will's return from Washington (a week before his own wedding!) we've barely seen them interact and there has been no indication that Will has changed in his behaviour or attitude towards her.
Will knows what triggers Emma's OCD so as if he'd ever leave her to organise a wedding on her own. It makes me furious how RIB always regress Will's character development to create a conflict.
I can accept that Emma would have a panic attack over the wedding not going perfectly...or her parents being there. Why didn't they use a more valid excuse? But I can't accept that she would ever leave Will at the alter...she loves him too deeply. He is the reason she confronted her OCD. He is the reason she's overcome her fear of sex. He is the reason she left Carl. She encouraged Will to leave Terri because he deserved better. I believe her love for him would override any thought she had of leaving him at the alter. And Will could not have been blind to her anxiety before the wedding (even though they made him look totally blind to it). Having Will ditched at the alter was just bad...he's had enough trouble with fake pregnancies. Give the guy a break.
And of course Will and Emma's wedding was barely about Will and Emma, it ended with Rachel...AGAIN. I love Rachel, but for the love of Grilled Cheesus, can't a Wemma event just be about Wemma?
The whole Finn kissing Emma scenario is yet to have its own repercussions but in my mind that action was just an ignorant or naive teenage action and I find it hard to believe Emma 'being the most honest person [Will] knows', wouldn't have told him about it as soon as it happened and told Will not to be angry at Finn.
Great song sung by Will (In Your Eyes) but did we really need the allusion to the 'princess locked in the castle' scenario? And Emma has a sister now!
So now we're back to .... i don't know what with Wemma...romantic dinners? Pfff, as if RIB are going to write any romantic scenes for them...nope, we probably won't even see Will and Emma together until the last episode of the season because they've filled their quota of 10 minutes screen time for the season. I thought it would be impossible for RIB to slow down the Wemma development even more but they have successfully moved Wemma's relationship NOWHERE.
So I've freaked out because the show I've been married to parades back into town for season 4 and I feel like I don't want to know it anymore.
