By Kris Green | It's the morning of Liam and Maria's wedding day and after witnessing Carla seductively kissing her fiance on the doorstep of their house, she's in turmoil over whether to go ahead with the nuptials.
Meanwhile, Carla is still on a mission to win Liam over but hasn’t heard from him and unsure about whether or nor she’s changed his mind about going ahead with it, she dresses to kill in a scarlet dress in a bid to out-do the bride. She’s in a dangerous mood and when Tony arrives to pick her up, she vents her frustration and finishes with him.
Back at Audrey's, Maria has been subdued all morning and finally breaks down, confessing her fears about Liam and Carla to a concerned Fiz. At the venue, the guests are starting to arrive and as time passes, Liam starts to get worried that Maria is more than fashionably late and still hasn’t arrived. Audrey finally manages to reassure Maria that Liam is in love with her and can’t wait to get married. Appeased, Maria goes to get ready.
As the car pulls up to the hotel, Maria refuses to get out of the car and says she can't go through with the wedding. Kirk rushes in to tell Liam that he’s needed outside and as everyone realises all's not well, Carla’s hopeful she might prevail. Liam’s taken aback when he sees how beautiful Maria looks but when she breaks down in tears and tells him she can’t marry him, he’s stunned. Will the wedding go ahead?
Michelle is proud of Ryan as he takes on his duties as Best Man and apologises to him for the recent disruptions, insisting that he’ll always come first. Steve and Ryan are relieved that things seem to be going back to normal, but can Michelle be sure that things will stay that way?
