- The host running the category leaves the choice to the other two and lists candidates: the karaoke scene, Rupert Everett singing 'Say a Little Prayer' (a spouse's favorite four minutes of the movie), the 'choose me, marry me' speech, which is both crazy and heartfelt and which the hosts connect to Grey's Anatomy, Notting Hill and 90210's Kelly Taylor 'I choose me', the bathroom fight at Comiskey Park, and the ending with giant cell phones that somehow had service everywhere in 1997.
- One more nominee is the boat scene, where she and Dermot Mulroney almost talk about their feelings, then dance while he sings 'The Way You Look Tonight'.
- The karaoke scene is the pick because it shows the whole range of emotions for everyone involved, and Cam really brings it. — Juliet Litman
- The 'Say a Little Prayer' lunch is the pick: iconic, a laugh every single time, especially the cutaway to the lobster restaurant where people in lobster mitts wave their hands; it also highlights how 90s rom-coms outside Nora Ephron's used a chirping ensemble like a musical. — Amanda Dobbins
- Another host's personal favorite is the bathroom fight: the best acting of Cameron Diaz, thirty women in the women's bathroom rolling with the punches and getting mad at Julia Roberts, two famous actresses at the peak of their powers in a showdown; its climax, the 'and a food critic' jab, is parked for what's aged the worst.
- The recap splits the two deciders between the karaoke scene and the lunch singing scene, both singing scenes; the helium kids appear at the Sunday brunch before the wedding and are high comedy.
