her hitched in order to win a bet of their own, even
if it means destroying her relationship with the only
man who could get her down the aisle.

Competition heats up as the wives sabotage each
other, while trying to convince Debra to keep dating
the man of their choice. Meanwhile, Debra’s
relationship with Sean is progressing from perfect
to permanent, but she agrees to keep up the casual
dating with her friend's picks to appease her
friends and to prevent her fears of falling in love
with Sean from causing her to fall apart. But when
Sean proposes a walk down the aisle, all bets are
off.

With an impromptu "I'm No Nerd" game show, a little
boy in ice skating drag, a naked hot tub hopping
elderly couple, a karaoke proposal that ends in
vomit, and an engagement ring for the groom, "Wanna
Bet" still finds moments of subtle romance between a
relationship-phobic woman and the guy who wants to
marry her.
