Summary[]
Ray and Frank persuade Robert to make a complete hash of designing his and Amy's wedding invitations, so that Amy will step in and take over; unfortunately, the plan backfires and the invitations go out, warts 'n' all. Worse, Debra realises Ray has been faking incompetence for years to avoid performing his household duties.

Quotes[]
- DEBRA: [Holding up Ray's shirt] Fold this.
- RAY: What?
- DEBRA: Fold this shirt!
- RAY: Why?
- DEBRA: When we first got married, and you used to fold stuff, I would think, "How could he be so bad at this; look at all the wrinkles!" And now I know. You faked it!
- RAY: What?
- DEBRA: Admit it! You faked it so I would do it for you!
- RAY: No! No! There was no fake!
- DEBRA: Then explain to me how you can't fold a shirt! Explain to me how an adult human with thumbs is not able to do that!
- RAY: I don't know, it's embarrassing!
