"I said, "no white, no ivory, no nothing
that says 'virgin.'" I have a child. The jig is
up." -Miranda
The relationship between Carrie and Petrovsky continues
to develop, but one thing continues to nag at Carrie.
Petrovsky is given to grand gestures of affection (including
poetry reading and the composition of original love
songs), and that's a bit too much for this slightly
cynical New York girl. When Petrovsky takes Carrie to
a premiere at the Met, she literally swoons. To balance
things out, the artist takes her to McDonald's, where
the pair become the most elegantly dressed duo in the
establishment's history.
Steve and Miranda decide to finally tie the knot, but
vow not to have an elaborate wedding. Keeping things
low-key isn't as easy as it sounds, but they eventually
manage to work things out, finding a perfect community
garden in which to hold their ceremony.
Not to be left behind in the romance department, Harry
takes Charlotte to an upscale French restauarant. The
meal is wonderful, but later that night, the newlyweds
both come down with acute food poisoning. The romantic
evening breaks down, as the pair alternates dashes to
the restroom. The experience may not be the most intimate,
but it does make clear their genuine love and caring
for each other.
After seeing herself pictured in In Touch magazine,
Samantha decides to get breast augmentation. However,
during her initial consultation with a plastic surgeon,
a lump is found in her breast. The biopsy reveals that
the growth is cancerous, and Samantha realizes that
she's in for the fight of her life.
The day of Steve and Miranda's wedding arrives, but
before they get to the ceremony, Samantha discloses
her condition to Carrie. Samantha is very matter-of-fact,
and swears Carrie to temporary secrecy, as not to ruin
Miranda's big day. The ceremony is beautiful, but during
the reception, both Charlotte and Miranda discover Samantha's
secret. The four friends then spend some sobering time
preparing for what will no doubt be a long journey for
all of them.
