Kim rides down to the village on horseback. Lucas flies a red kite but the string snaps and the kite float away. It lands on Jacob Sugden's grave on the 50th anniversary of his funeral. Kim has a stare off with Harriet on Main Street. Meanwhile at Home Farm, Will informs Billy that Kim overheard Harriet trying to talk him out of marrying her and also admits that he told Harriet he loved her during his stag do. Billy questions if he still wants to marry Kim. Will does. Billy suggests they sort things out tomorrow after the wedding then but Will believes they've got to have it out first. Faith's body is removed from The Woolpack. Chas is eaten up with guilt for not being there when her mum passed away. Sam worries that if Amelia and Noah fall in love, Samson will be pushed out of his baby's life. Samson isn't fussed much to Sam's disgust; he tells Samson his mum would be ashamed of him. Kim returns to Home Farm to have it out with Will. Will tells Kim he doesn't want Harriet, he wants her. He informs Kim he'll be at the church later - if she turns up, great, if not, he'll be heartbroken. Faith's friends have a sing along in her memory. After the singing stops, Chas tells Bear that Faith might have given him the run around, but she thought the world of him. Bear is touched. Kim lets herself into Woodbine Cottage where she explains to Harriet that Will thinks she's putting obstacles in the way of her own happiness but the only obstacle she can see is her. Kim questions what she has to do to get rid of that obstacle. Harriet replies that she'd need to kill her.

Part Two: Harriet can't comprehend how Will could possibly want Kim. Kim states it's love. Harriet can't accept that. In a fit of rage, she grabs Kim by the neck and yells at her. Kim isn't intimidated. She tells Harriet to do her worst but Will still won't love her. Amelia prepares a picnic for her and Noah to enjoy at Wylies Farm where Noah is working with Marcus. Kerry questions if she's seen the weather forecast although Amelia explains they're going to be inside. The conversation soon descends into an argument where Amelia has a go at Kerry's parenting, or lack thereof. As Kim gets her bridal hair done, Gabby notices the bruise of her neck from Harriet's attack although Kim passes it off as a love bite. Chas begs Aaron not to tell Paddy about her affair with Al. She promises never to see Al again so long as her son doesn't leave as she can't lose anyone else. Aaron agrees and the pair hug. The wedding guests with a golden ticket arrive at the church. At the altar, Will waits nervously to see if his bride will turn up. Dawn pops her head around the door and tells Will he's got to come and see this. Will heads outside where he finds Kim approaching on her horse dressed in a long red jacket. As Kim is about to head into the church, she has another stare of with Harriet. Harriet mouths "I'm sorry" then walks away. Kim sheds some tears as she prepares to walk down the aisle much to the surprise of the wedding guests.
