Ramsay Street
Paige walks up the street, still in her wedding dress.
No 32 garden
She looks around at all the tables which are still decorated with flowers.
MARY: I'm not sure if I'm too early or too late.
Well, that's what you get when the bride changes the time of the wedding... and the groom arrests the bride. Just an everyday occurrence. Paige tells her the wedding is off, and they hug.
Mary says she thought Mark was a decent man. Paige reckons that Mark arrested her out of spite.
PAIGE: And as much as he doesn't wanna marry me, I don't wanna marry him.
Mary suggests quite reasonably that they need time to cool down, but Paige wants to find some scissors.

Sonya, Karl and Toadie are discussing the campaign. Karl assures Sonya the fact that Tim sent him campaign manager after her proves he's worried.
KARL: Susan tells me this #ImYou is trendy!
TOADIE: Trend-ing.

Piper - remember, she had a digital ban or something - is doing a video of Aaron for her vlog. It's about secrets.
AARON: The thing about secrets is - they never stay secret forever. Sooner or later they come out and when they do, someone gets hurt.
Kyle arrives, and tells Aaron he thinks they should find Mark. He says that when his marriage failed, he wanted space and it wasn't good for him. A topless Tyler is there with Courtney. Kyle, Aaron and Tyler leave, and Piper keeps Aaron's phone with the video.

Tim tells Sonya he isn't interested in intimidating her. He has a plan for Erisborough - one that involves her.
TIM: I think you'd make an excellent community consultation officer.
Toadie asks if there's a role for that, and Tim says there would be if he were elected. Sonya asks if it's a bribe, which Tim denies. She says in that case she doesn't have to drop out. He asks if she'll consider it.
TIM: Politics is a blood sport. Why get hurt if you don't have to?
Toadie asks him to leave.

Sonya takes a call from the West Waratah Star. She tells Toadie that Tim must have authorised his campaign manager to leak information. Toadie points out that the people who know her won't be swayed by the media.
SONYA: But what about the other people that don't know me?
Toadie tells her that she needs to meet the voters.

Piper is wittering on about secrets for her vlog. Why is she actually in a pub anyway? Just then Tim and Courtney come in, having an argument. She tells him she doesn't want his wife calling her.
COURTNEY: You don't care what I think.
TIM: Hey, don't say that. You're my number one girl.
COURTNEY: Doesn't feel like it.
TIM: Look, it's a tricky situation, that's all.
He promises to sort it out, and he hugs her. He asks her if she's OK for money, and gives her $50 (I think). Meanwhile, Piper is videoing this on her phone.

Karl is suggesting ideas for Sonya's campaign, when Piper bursts in and says that Tim is having an affair.
PIPER: He was all over her, being lovey-dovey. Giving her money.
TOADIE: Well, we know he's had a couple of wives.
PIPER: Yeah, he's a sleaze. If we put this out there, he's out of the election for sure.
SONYA: Why were you filming this?
Piper says that she'd want to know who the Mayor was cheating with, and says she'll upload it if Sonya says the word. Toadie and Karl are encouraging...
SONYA: Well, yeah, I could stop him, but then I would become him. I'm sorry, delete the file. I don't want anything to do with that.
She reiterates to Piper that she is not to post it.

Mark is in the garden when Kyle appears with Mary.
MARY: How can you do this to Paige? You're supposed to believe in her.
MARK: How could I do this to Paige?
MARY: Yeah.
MARK: You know, when we first got together after all the Dimato stuff, we swore that we wouldn't lie to each other.
Mary tells him that Paige is heart-broken, and he says he didn't want that. She's pleased he's admitted his mistake, but he says he wasn't saying that. She tells him to go to Paige, but he walks off.

Tim barges in and accuses Sonya of having something to do with the footage.
TIM: You must have been so happy when some witless intern at the Star uploaded it.

Kyle apologises to Mark for letting Mary in, saying she's pretty scary. Mark says it's OK, adding that he doesn't need cheering up, and he doesn't need to talk. Kyle remarks that they probably made him arrest Paige, as it's his job.
MARK: My boss told me to stay out of the case. I chose to arrest her.
He says that when he went to talk to her about it, she wanted to ignore it and get married. He says there were other officers on their way who would have made a scene.
KYLE: That's intense, dude.
MARK: I wanted to marry her. I thought we were ready.
He says he never thought he would love someone as much as he loved Kate, but he loves Paige. Kyle says he has to tell her.
