It's the morning of Ricky and Bianca's wedding and while Phil helps Ricky prepare, Bianca's over at Pat's readying herself for the big day ahead. Meanwhile, Billie tries to talk Carol into attending the nuptials but she's firm - they're not going. With that, she tears up the invite in front of him. Everyone gathers for the wedding and Bradley turns up with a surprise announcement - he and Stacey won't be attending as they're also getting married at a small ceremony in town. Becca and Charlie are disappointed that they've not been invited and it's up to Stacey to convince Becca that Bradley doesn't hate her. Bianca descends the stairs at Pat's in her ivory bridal gown and her family look on in awe at the sight before them. Whitney suggests that they call Billie to see if he wants to be at the wedding, but Bianca insists that there's no point as Carol's made up her mind.

Bianca's arrival causes Carol to storm out of the church. Bianca gives chase and the pair descend into a slanging match about the past. Finally apologising to Carol for betraying her all those years ago, they return inside for the ceremony. But has Carol really forgiven Bianca? And will the wedding go ahead? Wondering if Bianca really loves him, Ricky asks: "Am I enough for you?"

Later, a ferocious Janine sees Ian and accuses him of planting the ring in her flat. Concerned by her strange behaviour, Ian reveals that he saw Jack talking to the police and he's the most likely to have set her up. Seeing Jack emerge from The Vic, Janine accuses him of staging the ring scenario, before suggesting that he was the one to kill Archie. Ryan arrives on the scene and Janine questions why he changed the locks at the flat, while waving a key in his face. Ryan, however, claims that the key isn't for their flat. Janine then realises that whoever switched her key is the person who set her up with the ring. With that, she sets about trying to find the corresponding lock…

Later, Janine scours the Square in search of the correct lock. Jack's door fails to open, as does Ian's, but when she tries The Vic's cellar door, she's surprised to find that it fits. As Janine confronts Phil, Ronnie punches her, knocking her onto the wedding cake. As the locals erupt in laughter, Janine catches a glimpse of Peggy who looks on with severe hatred. At that moment, Janine realises that Peggy planted Archie's ring in her house.
After speaking with his police contact, Jack corners Bradley and Stacey informing them that there's a problem: somebody's told the police about Archie, Stacey and the baby - the police are on their way for him, so he must flee Walford…

Billie returns to Pat's house, takes the gun and returns to The Vic; relations are strained between Phil and Shirley after the Sonia incident earlier in the week; Sonia apologises to Phil about the bed incident and kisses him on the cheek just as Shirley walks in; Lucy makes a move on Leon just as Ian appears; Shirley threatens to retract her statement which includes Phil's alibi; Lucy threatens to tell everyone that she saw Ian digging up a box in the allotments; Ronnie throws paint at Archie's poster and as it drips down her face, we see red paint dripping from her hands like blood; and a worried-looking Dot tells Ian that she's committed a crime.
