A bride to be learns from a mysterious note before her wedding ceremony that her soon to be husband is possibly a serial killer. Samantha and her bridesmaids Ruthie and Kelly are in the dressing room getting ready for the wedding. Samantha keeps asking them what everyone has been saying about her marrying Carlos so soon. They finally tell her that people have been saying that it's too early and that they're rushing into this.
Ruthie hands Samantha a note and tells her it was given to the Priest by a woman wearing a red scarf. Ruthie tells her that the Priest said it is to be given to Samantha right away. On her way to the bathroom Samantha reads it and the note simply reads "The person you are marrying is a serial killer". (Cue dramatic music) She goes into Carlo's dressing room to talk to him and to make sure that he wants to get married. He assures Samantha that he is ready. She doesn't say anything about the note and goes back to her dressing room.
She finds Ruthie and demands that she shows her the woman that gave the note to the Priest. They look for her in the church but can't find her so they go outside. As soon as they step outside they see the woman in the red scarf stepping into a cab. Ruthie keeps asking Samantha what the note said but she refuses to talk about it. She finishes getting ready and goes through with the wedding.
During the ceremony, Ruthie and Kelly keep giving Carlos strange looks. After the wedding was over, Samantha goes back into the dressing room to get ready for the reception. Ruthie and Kelly are asking her about the note but Samantha starts freaking out and kicks them out of the dressing room and tells them to forget about the note. A few moments later she hears someone pounding on her dressing room door. She opens the door but no one is there.
She hears something fall and break down the hall but she can't see anyone. Just then the woman with the red scarf runs and hides behind a door. Samantha runs into the priest and asks him about the person who gave him the note. He tells her he doesn't remember who it is and offers to escort her to the reception.
She declines and says she has to make a phone call. She tries to call someone but the call won't go through. Carlos is hiding in the alley watching Samantha and follows her in the woods to the reception. She asks Carlo's uncle about Carlo's parents and he tells her that they disappeared when Carlos was 16 but Carlos won't talk about it with anyone.
Just then Carlos appears and gets defensive about Samantha talking to his uncle. He tells his uncle he better not be telling tales and then takes Samantha away. He questions her about why her bridesmaids keep giving him the dirty looks and he tells her to start acting like she's happy about being his wife.
Samantha leaves the reception and goes into the church to call her brother, who didn't come to the wedding. She leaves a message telling him that she thinks she made a mistake by marrying Carlos so quickly and that something happened that scared her. Ruthie and Kelly find her in the church while she is in the middle of leaving the message. After Samantha finishes, Ruthie tells her she is going to tell Carlos what she thinks of him and storms out of the church.
Samantha follows Ruthie and finds her at the reception yelling at Carlos. Ruthie is in the middle of telling him that Samantha got a note but Samantha won't tell her what it says. Samantha tells Ruthie to stop and go to the reception. Carlos accuses Ruthie and Kelly of being jealous bitches and leaves. Meanwhile, Carlo's uncles keep looking at each other and smiling. Sam follows Carlos to the church. She asks him if he's ok and Carlos tells her that Ruthie told him about a note that Samantha got. She denies ever getting it and then asks if there is anything he wants to tell her. He starts laughing and tells her not to be afraid. Samantha grabs a candlestick and Carlos disappears.
She hears noises coming from inside the church and hides in a confessional. Carlos tells her to come out and when she won't he puts a chair in front of the door so she can't get out. He goes into the confessional next to her and says that the girl meant nothing to him. She asks what he means and he tells her that a he met a girl while Samantha was away and they had dinner.
He tells her that the girl wanted more than he was willing to give so she started calling him at work and stalking him. He apologized for having dinner with her and he said it was probably her who gave Samantha the note in hopes that the wedding wouldn't happen. Samantha tells him that Ruthie knew nothing about the note. He asks what she means and she tells him that she was given the note by mistake and that Carlos was supposed to be given the note, not her.
Dun dun dun!! What does it all mean??? Go take watch Fear Itself : In sickness and in Health and find out!!
Now, I have some stuff to say!!! Ehh...This episode was kind of boring. It didn't even get remotely interesting until the last like 10 minutes. I mean yeah, the ending was a total freaking twist and I never saw it coming, but the stuff leading up to it was a total snooze fest...ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
And there was no cussing or nudity because I realized it was on NBC and of course there will be no nekkidness or profanity...DUH!!! I kept bitching about the lack of boobs and swear words and then realized ohh hey, they can't put that on NBC. Anyway, I digress.
Overall I'd give In Sickness and in Health a 2 out of 5. I was gonna give it a 1.5 but because the ending was a total shock, I decided to give it a bump in the score. I would recommend it, but only for the total twist at the end.
