Summary[]
Roxy's big day arrives but there is no sign of Sean. Shirley risks Phil's wrath in order to help Ben achieve his dreams.
|
Sean's gone AWOL and the Slaters' house is in turmoil. Stacey warns Roxy that Sean's got form for disappearing, but Roxy's resolute that he wouldn't abandon her - the wedding's still on. She storms out to search for him. Shirley pretends to be sick. As soon as Vinnie's out the door, she rushes off to spirit Ben away to the Community Centre so he can dance in the show. Heather sneaks upstairs at the Vic to keep Ben's show tunes playing. Roxy finds Sean at Pat's. He's scared in case their child turns out like his mum. Roxy assures him that they can face the future together. She insists that she'll be at the register office, and leaves him to make his mind up. Encouraged by Lucas, Ben decides to try one last time to get Phil to watch his performance, and begs Shirley to help out. Denise looks on. She's delighted Chelsea's turned over a new leaf, but wonders if Lucas really is a changed man. Narked at being left out, Mo pays Ronnie a visit while Roxy, Jean and Stacey get ready for the wedding. She tells Ronnie exactly what Roxy's up to. Shocked, Ronnie races outside and nabs a taxi. She orders the driver to step on it. At the register office, the atmosphere's tense as the clock ticks. Stacey gently tries to tell Roxy that Sean's not coming. Roxy insists that Sean will be there and pleads with the registrar to give him a few more minutes. Shirley returns to the Vic, where Vinnie rebukes her for lying to him. Shirley admits to Phil that Ben's at the Community Centre, desperate for his Dad's support. Phil's furious, but Shirley begs him to listen to her. The registrars are losing their patience, as there's another wedding booked. Increasingly desperate, Roxy begs them to believe her that Sean's coming. Suddenly the door opens and everyone swings round. |
