Forget-Me-Nots: Favorite Episodes And Moments From “Girlfriends”

The Wedding

This episode really showcased how selfish Joan could be if the relationship with a man didn’t involve her.  She’d been having some problems with Ellis, namely the fact that she found out he was working on a movie with his child’s mother (remember, this is the child he found out about while with Joan).  But Toni was getting married and this was her opportunity to show that even if she were jealous – and she was – that she could put it all to the side and be there for her friend. But after a blowup with Ellis about him not being there for her actually proves Joan wrong, she leaves the wedding site to make things right with Ellis. Toni, who is already nervous about marrying Todd, decides that she doesn’t need Joan at the wedding. On bended knee (not really but basically), Joan begs for Toni’s forgiveness and is able to walk down the aisle as a bridesmaid (her dress had been torn to shreds but she did wear a really cute pink dress instead).
