==Plot==
It's the day of the wedding and Laurel is nervous. Charity plays a voicemail Declan left her to Chas, explaining that unless Debbie convinces him it was her abortion, she is dead. Ali is gutted to hear that Dan has told Kerry the truth and worries Ruby will find out. Kerry tells Sam that Tracy was splashing cash at the hen party last night. Charity tries to explain to Debbie her reasons for lying to Declan but the two argue and Debbie walks out. Sam is angry when he finds out that Samson gave is iPad to a girl at school in order to get her to go out with him, influenced by Sam buying things for Tracy. Doug tells Nicola what he overheard, but Nicola urges him to keep quiet. Shortly afterwards however, Laurel begins to cry as she confesses to Doug she's not sure she can go through with the wedding. Dan tries to apologise to Kerry and she softens slightly towards him. Realising him and Tracy have reached the end of the line, Sam tries to break up with her. Paddy, Rhona and Nicola realise the wedding may not be going ahead when Marlon disappears and Doug arrives to break the news that Laurel isn't coming. Tracy tries to persuade Sam to change his mind but Samson steps in and tells her to "jog on". Laurel finds Marlon in the cemetery, kneeling by Donna's grave.
