Parsing this as "the caller got married to Howard" is so freakishly bizarre -- the caller's friend/Howard's roommate has no idea the caller and Howard were likely to get married?! -- that I came up with an alternate, slightly less freakishly bizarre parsing: that the caller is a priest/civil servant who conducts marriages, and Howard came in and got married *by* the caller last night. Only marginally more comprehensible, though. . . .
