Doug Harris (Josh Gad) has no friends. But he IS engaged to a beautiful woman, Paige (Kaley Cuoco). Which raises a question. Who will be his best man? The answer comes in the form of Jimmy Callahan (Kevin Hart) who will be anyone's best man for a price. All he needs now is groomsmen. And that makes this particular wedding the fabled "Golden Tux".

Paige is planning her wedding down to the finest detail. We know what that's like, huh guys? All that's going on in Doug's head is elevator music. Until the father of the bride says this.
Paige
Mom and I narrowed it down to the silver tulle tussie-mussie, which is an exact replica of the 1950s Texan Tussie-Mussie. Or we have our Trés Beau with its golden floral etching, enhanced in a smoky-silver tone.
Ed
Does anyone else feel really fu*king gay right now?
Lois
Ed!
Clip 2
Jimmy needs a pseudonym for the wedding. Luckily, Doug has already come up with one. Sadly, it's... well... it's awful. Bic Mitchum. Can Jimmy pull that off? You bet your ass he can!
Jimmy
What's my name?
Doug
Jimmy.
Jimmy
No, my name. I'm assuming you made up a name for me. What is it?
Doug
Oh, I thought it was a trick question. It's Bic. Bic Mitchum.
Jimmy
Do I wear a fu*king cape? Bic Mitchum?
Doug
It was an act of desperation.
Jimmy
Bic. Hey, ladies, what's going on? My name is Bic and I got the d*ck.
Doug
What's happening right now?
Jimmy
I'm Bic Mitchum. Hey, you put that down and if someone asks you who said it, you tell them Bic Mitchum said it. What do you mean that there's no more candy? I'm Bic Mitchum and I love candy. I'm Bic. Where da pu**y at?
Doug
What?
Jimmy
Fu*k you!
Doug
Wait.
Jimmy
Fu*k you, man!
Doug
No, Bic can't have these -
Jimmy
- Bic Mitchum can have whatever the fu*k he wants! Bic, Bic, Bic, Bic, Bic, Bic. All right.
Clip 3
It gets worse. Bic Mitchum... the fictional Bic Mitchum... is a priest. Yes. A priest. There'll be no boom-boom with the bridesmaids at this wedding. He's a man of the cloth. And Jimmy is not happy.
Jimmy
How did we meet?
Doug
Uh, freshman year, Stanford.
Jimmy
That means I'm smart. Sh*t. Where am I from?
Doug
I never said.
Jimmy
North Dakota.
Doug
Why North Dakota?
Jimmy
Do you know anybody in North Dakota?
Doug
No.
Jimmy
Nobody does. What do I do?
Doug
You're in the military.
Jimmy
That a boy. See, now you're thinking. No address, no phone number. And chicks dig the uniform sh*t. It's going to be like shooting fish in a barrel.
Doug
Actually, I, uh, I don't think you're going to be shooting any fish in this particular barrel.
Jimmy
An Army guy that's the best man not hitting on the bridesmaids? They'll think I'm a homosexual.
Doug
Well, actually...
Jimmy
Well, actually, what? You told them I'm a homosexual, Doug?
Doug
No. No, not that, per se.
Jimmy
What, per se, Doug? Tell me.
Doug
Bic Mitchum is actually Father Bic Mitchum.
Jimmy
You told them I'm a fu*king priest, Doug?
Doug
Well, actually, it was Gretchen who said it.
Jimmy
You told Gretchen I'm a fu*king priest, Doug?
Doug
No. Gretchen said...
Jimmy
There was nothing else that popped into your head?
Doug
At the time I thought it was a really smart idea.
Jimmy
A fu*king priest?
Doug
But now I can see that it's going to upset you.
Jimmy
A fu*king priest? Fu*k! Fu*k, sh*t, b**ch, d*ck, ass!
Doug
No. No, you can't.
Jimmy
Oh, well, I have to get them all out now because I'm a fu*king priest and I can't cuss around your family, Doug. Fu*k!
Doug
Oh, come on.
Jimmy
That's the last one.
Clip 4
Establishing a convincing back-story is important for a man like Jimmy. And he doesn't have much to work with, here. So he does his best. And it's painful. Truly painful.
Jimmy
You guys have to understand that I come from a very dark past. And by dark, of course I'm referring to my drug use. I was on everything. At one point, the only good vein I had was between my toes. Crystal meth. I'm not sure if any of you guys can relate to it. Grandma, I've seen your teeth. Maybe you can, or can't. But the Lord says, "Don't judgeth upon what happens, but what happens upon what can't be judged." Which means, yes, I may have been to a point where I was sucking d*ck for money. But that day... that day when I woke up face down in that snowbank, I didn't know where I was. I didn't even know who I was. And I remember squinting because I was... I was being blinded by this bright light. I couldn't see a thing. And when I finally opened my eyes, I saw Jesus.
Paige
You saw Jesus?
Jimmy
Oh, I saw Jesus. He was in Mary's arms in the nativity scene at St. Michael's. And I wept. But they weren't tears of pain. These were tears of joy. From having found my path, of course.
Alison
So, Father...
Jimmy
Call me Bic, please.
Alison
What made you decide to go into the military?
Jimmy
Mmm. That's a great question. Some people are called on to serve God. Others are called to serve our country. Those who are chosen to serve both, they're called Army chaplains. I got a two-way call from the big fellow himself.
Ed
A priest in the military.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Ed
It's interesting. Do they have a "don't ask, don't tell" policy on child molesting?
Paige
Dad!
Jimmy
[Laughs]
Clip 5
Kip is one of Doug's hired groomsmen. And he is a former inmate of a federal prison. Where he raped a lot of men. Yes, you read that correctly. And you'll understand why Doug is less than happy.
Doug
Jimmy, can I talk to you for a second? These guys cannot be my groomsmen.
Jimmy
What are you talking about?
Doug
Well, for one thing, it looks like the entire cast of Goonies grew up and became rapists. This one in particular looks like he just broke out of a federal fu*king prison.
Jimmy
What you need to do is keep it down because he did. And he raped a lot of men in there. Yes.
Doug
Oh, my God. Oh, Jesus.
Clip 6
Ed has organised a little groomsmen vs. old men football game as a "get to know you" thing. But there's an ulterior motive. Ed wants to bury these punks.
Ed's Friend
Are you sure you can handle going both ways?
Ed
I heard Doug enjoys that.
Doug
What?!
[The game commences with gusto]
Clip 7
When it's your daughter's wedding, you want everything to be perfect. No hiccups. And if that means threatening to fu*k up the wedding planner, then so be it.
Ed
I expect... no, I demand perfection.
Edmundo
Yes, Mister Palmer, I assure you...
Ed
Listen, Menudo, first you tell me my family priest is a goddamn pervert. Now you tell me Father McNulty has disappeared.
