|
Pauline tells him that she knows Kathy has been staying with Cindy. Cindy sees Kathy off, Pete does not get to her in time. Pat accuses Frank of lying. He storms out of the Vic, disgusted by her accusation. Cindy, Ian and Rod set up the community centre for Carmel and Matthew's reception. A woman, Lynne shows up claiming to be Matthew's sister. David and Rod keep Lynne company whilst she waits to see Matthew. Carmel's sister, Maxine, supports her as she gets ready for the wedding. Mo tells Frank he should help Pat more around the Vic. Den gets a tough talking from Officer Crane at the prison. Donna suffers withdrawal symptoms from not having taken drugs for a few days. She begs Rod for money but he refuses to give her any. She then turns to Sharon for money but Rod stops Sharon from funding her addiction. Carmel and Matthew marry and return to the Square for the reception. Matthew comes face-to-face with Lynne and furiously storms off. Carmel follows him back to the flat. Matthew loses his temper with Carmel and violently grabs her. The wedding guests continue the reception without the pair there. An upset Lynne confesses to David that she is actually Matthew's mother, and had him when she was 16. Pete's mind remains on Kathy at the wedding reception. Matthew apologises for getting angry with Carmel and hitting her. Carmel accepts his apology and the pair agree to flee on their honeymoon and skip the reception altogether. As they run off, Pete sees them - his mind fills with memories of Kathy again. |
