Extended Summary

Sid arrives at Angelo’s in time to save Indi from Neil, and she calls the police. Sid is sorry that Neil brought violence to his family. Dex is overwhelmed by the nights events, and finds his memory failing. The next day, Lisa asks Indi why she didn’t just tell Neil what he wanted, to which Indi replies that Neil’s a bully who gets off on intimidating women and she wasn’t going to give in. Romeo arrives home, and Indi asks him about his family life and domestic abuse, trying to understand why Lisa would stay with Neil. They return home to find Neil has been released. In the resulting commotion Dex becomes dizzy, but no one notices and he covers it up. Later, at her hotel, Lisa calls Neil – she’s decided to return home. Meanwhile Dex suffers a seizure.

John and Gina are getting used to finally being back together, but Jett’s attitude is spoiling the mood. Gina believes he’s down because of VJ’s departure, but Jett makes it clear he doesn’t think John’s going to stay and that he’s still concerned about Marilyn and John. But Gina is firm – it was a misunderstanding and they’ve moved on.

Jett, still unconvinced, interrogates Marilyn to assess her character. He plants a recording device on John to try and get incriminating information on him and Marilyn. Jett reviews his data, and reveals the recording to Gina – the sound of Marilyn asking “for more”. But Gina recognises that it’s Marilyn’s response to cream cheese frosting – not as incriminating as it sounds! Both Gina and John promise Jett that they’re staying together.

Roo asks Marilyn to be her Maid of Honour, while Harvey is feeling pressure to produce friends for the bridal party. In his struggle to find people close to him, he takes a stand – he’s not having a best man. Alf tells Roo to take a step back and look at herself, she’s getting carried away with the wedding and not thinking about Harvey, who doesn’t have a best man to ask. Roo and Marilyn meddle and call Harvey’s old friend.
