A wealthy Russian student begs Charlie to find her someone to marry so she can obtain a visa. The cash-strapped deputy manager agrees, but has trouble convincing the bride-to-be's father and a suspicious Rebecca that the marriage is genuine.

Further details

A wealthy Russian student begs Charlie to help her organise a green card wedding at the hotel, but it is only when Tony reminds Charlie of how much cash they could make from delivery scams that Charlie agrees - realising it's the one way he can raise the money to keep Pete away from Rebecca.

Finding an agreeable suitor is easy enough, but can they convince the student's billionaire father and moreover, Rebecca, that the wedding is genuine?

Rebecca is caught up on a personal level in the whirlwind of wedding plans, but it's an obsessive compulsive guest who makes her realise that hiding in the hotel isn't going to solve her own relationship problems.

Charlie gets enough cash to pay off Pete, but Rebecca has become suspicious and takes the initiative to delve a little into Charlie's employment history.
