Episode 6334

Extended Summary

Stunned after kissing Asia, Oscar texts her, begging that she keep quiet. Maddy approaches him and apologises for the confusion with Matt earlier. Oscar’s guilt sky rockets as Maddy suggests they forget tonight ever happened.

Unable to sleep, Irene takes a headache pill and sips her water, haunted. Meanwhile at the diner, Chris tells Leah that Irene seems okay, but Leah still thinks there’s more to it. Zac arrives, and Leah reveals she’s looking for a fourth bridesmaid to replace Marilyn, leaving Chris thoughtful.

Sent down to clean up the caravan park, VJ and Hunter ditch Evelyn when they realise how bad the mess is. She finds Matt in a bad way, and begins to catch up on his disastrous love life.

Happy to have her secret finally off her chest, Olivia’s good mood is broken when Irene suggests she should still work through what happened. Olivia moves off, keen to avoid the issue, leaving Irene even more worried for her.

Chris tells Hannah that he wants to be Leah’s “brides-man”. Hannah thinks he’s crazy, but Chris is confident that once he works his magic, Leah will see past tradition and ask him.

Evelyn’s dumbfounded, shocked that she’s missed everything that’s happened between Oscar, Maddy & Matt. Evelyn’s careful not to rip into Matt, but asks him to promise not to hurt Oscar. Evelyn meets Oscar at the diner and apologises for not knowing about the situation, and Oscar’s guilt escalates when she suggests it could’ve been worse if Matt made a move on Maddy. As Evelyn moves off Maddy returns, and she and Oscar have a small fight, still unable to get back to normal. Meanwhile Chris overhears Leah and Hannah talking about flowers for the wedding. Chris thinks Hannah is trying to steal the bridesperson job from him. She tells him she didn’t want it, but since he’s being so absurd, now she’s going for it. Chris welcomes the competition, and it’s game on!

Irene tries again to convince Olivia to get some help, but she’s saved when VJ and Hunter arrive to watch a movie with her. Olivia’s grateful for the diversion, and Irene’s stymied once more.

As Hannah discusses wedding arrangements with Leah and Zac, Chris cuts in and shows them some out-of-the-box wedding suggestions in a portfolio folder he’s made. They’re confused, so Chris announces he’s putting his hand up for the fourth spot in the bridal party. Hannah tells them she’s keen too, and Zac leaves Leah with the big decision. On his way home, Zac passes Matt, and orders him to fix things with Oscar – he can’t have their issues ruin the wedding. Matt absorbs his request, and knows he has to act.

Alf finds Maddy upset, and she reveals that things have gotten worse with Oscar since she’s started liking Matt more. Alf suggests she starts being honest with them, but she’s still uncertain about who she wants to be with.

Chris makes a desperate plea to Leah, arguing that with Marilyn away, he’s the perfect replacement as a fellow “diner lady”. Leah’s unsure as Hannah is Oscar and Evelyn’s aunt. But Chris is stubborn, forcing Leah to stop him as she moves off to think about it. Chris doesn’t think he’s helped his case at all.

With the movie over, VJ, Hunter and Olivia decide to go out for pizza. As she leaves, Olivia reassures Irene that she’s okay. Irene forces a smile, but after Olivia leaves, she pulls out an old photograph and is shaken as she focuses on herself as a young teenager and the older man in the photo. It takes all her strength not to fall apart.

Leah tells Hannah that she’d prefer her over Chris – four women to go with four men feels right. But she leaves the decision up to Hannah, and she’s thrown. Will she take the spot for herself?

Wanting to explore her feelings for Matt, Maddy visits him, but before she can get it out, he promises to back off for the sake of Oscar and the wedding. But neither of them are happy with where it’s come to. At the surf club, Oscar gets a text from Asia, assuring him she won’t say anything about their kiss, as the guilt continues to eat away at him.

Chris arrives at Hannah’s, and she congratulates him on being Leah’s choice. Hannah decides not to tell him it was up to her, and blurts out that she loves him. Chris kisses her, but Hannah can’t believe what she’s just said.

Olivia comes home to find Irene cooking dinner, and is furious when she reveals she’s been trying to organise counselling. Olivia thinks Irene has no idea what she’s talking about, but Irene tells her she’s been through the same thing. Olivia’s stunned as Irene reels from having finally admitted the truth.
