Pressured by his family, Maxwell wants Fran to sign a pre-nup, which upsets her. She thinks he doesn't trust her and/or doesn't have faith their marriage will last forever. Unbelievably, Val is the one that opens her eyes to what's happening and how it is better for Fran to sign it.

Even though Maxwell's family tells Fran that their marriage won't work, Maxwell tells her how much he loves her and that their lives together will never be dull. That night they both fall off their honeymoon yacht.
