Monday 8th June
Rebecca's world is rocked when a fugitive Paul announces that he's leaving the country and would like her to come and bid him a final goodbye. In a desperate attempt to make him return, Rebecca tries once more to prove that Sophie was a witness to the hit and run. However, Kate voices her disgust - and fires a few home truths in the process. Rebecca faces the truth: Paul is leaving. When Declan finds out what's going on, he takes it upon himself to meet up with Paul and convince him to come home. Initially it's a solo mission, but Bridget finds out and tags along for the ride. However, when they arrive at the airport, they discover that Paul's flight has already left. They're unaware that Paul has actually returned home to Rebecca and is ready to face the music. After venting her anger, Rebecca sees a glimmer of good in Paul and agrees to give their relationship another chance. With Toadie's approval, the decision is made that Paul will lay low for a few days in order to find the Ramsay children's father. After that, he will turn himself into the police.
Tuesday 9th June
Deciding to forget her fears of marriage and seize the moment, Bridget convinces Declan that a spontaneous wedding is the perfect way for them to embrace the future. Zeke, Ringo, Sunny and Donna arrive, surprised by the plan, but eager to help prepare for the occasion. Morally conservative Sunny worries how Rebecca and Bridget's parents will react to the unauthorised nuptials. But that's really just a cover for her guilt about not telling her parents about her blooming relationship with Zeke. Meanwhile, Declan realises he's lost the paperwork that will permit he and Bridget to legally tie the knot, and worries that the secret marriage is a betrayal of Rebecca. When all obstacles are overcome the happy couple are united in a touching, informal ceremony. But will the arrival of angry Rebecca, Steve and Miranda spoil their celebrations?

When Karl catches Susan lying about going on a lunch date with Libby, he's worried her MS has returned and she's hiding it again. He recruits Libby to find out what's going on, but Susan refuses to give anything away. She just needs her family to trust her. Unable to bear not knowing, Karl pressures Susan into revealing all. Susan explains that there's no problem with her health. In fact, MS aside, she's never been healthier - which is great because she'd like to be the surrogate mother for Dan and Libby's baby.
Thursday 11th June

However, seeing Libby's unresolved baby longing, Susan defies Karl's wishes and makes her offer to Libby.
