Synopsis:

Pleased to see Wally and Linda married at last, Jay Garrick tells the story of his own honeymoon, which was somewhat unusual. He and Joan had chosen Las Vegas as their destination, but were interrupted by Jay's friends from the JSA, who wanted to celebrate his wedding with the happy couple. They take Jay to a brand new casino, but Jay finds the party fairly boring and heads back to see Joan.
While he is away, the casino is attacked by a trio of villains who defeat the JSA fairly easily. They have trouble when Jay returns, however, and do not manage to escape with the loot. Unfortunately, the escapade tires Jay out completely and he sleeps for the rest of his wedding night, which is why he's never told the story before.
