Summary[]

Sharon and Keanu's worlds have been shattered. On a happier note, Gray and Chantelle are excited about renewing their wedding vows but their plans are ruined when the venue cancels. Patrick is unhappy about Denise meddling in his personal life and takes an extreme course of action.

Linda had managed to find her way back to the Vic in the middle of the night, after a drunken bender.

Patrick is trying to get hold of the elusive Sheree. Denise is feeling guilty.

Mick sends Linda a cold reception and she tries to go along with Lee's explanation that she's been with a friend.

Lisa apologises to Louise for not telling her anything about Keanu and Sharon. A concerned Karen asks them about Keanu's whereabouts. Louise passes Karen her mother's ring.

Linda is trying to scrub blood from her heels.

Chantelle and Gray are sent into a crisis when their venue is cancelled. They plan to find an alternative.

Bex tells Sonia that she's decided to apply for a university in September. She feels that Martin's recent behaviour is due to her driving him away from Stacey and the children.

Sharon admits guilt to Karen and promises to inform her if she discovers anything about Keanu and his whereabouts.

Denise tells Patrick about Sheree's disloyalty and that she was the one who ordered her to leave the family home. Patrick doesn't believe her, and orders her out of the house.

Sonia finds Martin in despair in Arthur's shed. She tells him that she has done some digging about the hit-and-run incident, and that a man has been taken to the hospital.

Sharon turns to the Carters for comfort, and Linda offers her a bed, despite Shirley's disapproval.

Gray gets heated with Chantelle when she tells him that no venue is available for the next day. He believes that she's spent her time reading magazines. She walks out on him with Karen.

Sonia takes Martin to the hospital to see the man who's fighting for his life. She orders him to stay strong for Bex.

Billy questions Phil on Keanu on behalf of Karen. He tells him that he doesn't know anything, and Ben reminds Billy to remember where his loyalties lie. Martin is told by Ben that the Tubbs business is cleared, and the family will never forget what he did for them.

Chantelle receives a call from a place that tells her they have a free booking. She lies and tells them that Gray has sorted it all out.

Patrick asks Denise for her house keys. Heartbroken, he finds comfort at the bottom of a bottle.

Sonia gives Martin a gift - a picture of him as a child with his parents. They remember old times, and Sonia admits she loves him. The conversation turns into a passionate embrace.

Linda stares at a glass of water. Mick tries to get to the bottom of her problems and tells her she needs help. She promises to give up drinking. When Mick leaves the room, the glass of water becomes vodka. She pours it down the sink, along with the bottle.
