Friends and family of Cleo believe she is having the time of her life in Bali unaware that she has been holed up and kept captive by controlling and twisted Abe and is very much in the vicinity.

Abe has since started dating Peri Lomax (Ruby O’Donnell) to keep up appearances and was forced to propose to Peri with a ring and proposal that was really intended for Cleo.

Tonight, Abe tells Cleo that Peri has started to act strangely and Cleo tells him that she’ll help him out by giving him advice.

Cleo, who has been completely brainwashed and controlled by Abe, tells him he needs to get Peri excited about the idea of a wedding to keep the pretence going but that he and she know that she, Cleo, is actually the REAL bride.

Meanwhile doctor Misbah Maalik (Harvey Virdi) is baffled when she notices that nurse Cleo’s pass has been used at Dee Valley Hospital.
