It's a big day for Vince and Elizabeth makes a friend
It鈥檚 Steph Casey鈥檚 wedding day at Brookfield barn and Ruth鈥檚 exhausted from dealing with all of her demands. Ruth tells Elizabeth how stressed David鈥檚 been about it all 鈥� he鈥檚 driven her mad!
Vince is anxious about seeing his daughter Beth for the first time since falling out over her boyfriend 鈥� he doesn鈥檛 want to end up arguing and ruining Steph鈥檚 day. Vince and Steph are choked up when she thanks him for the best day of her life; they鈥檙e lucky to have each other. When Vince wonders where Beth鈥檚 boyfriend is, Steph says they鈥檝e split up.
Beth and Elizabeth meet and Beth wonders whether Elizabeth might be feeling a bit awkward with all three of Vince鈥檚 wives there. But Elizabeth says it鈥檚 fine, they鈥檙e all adults and she has no plans to be Vince鈥檚 fourth wife. When she confides that Vince feels terrible about falling out with her, Beth admits she was pretty horrible to him and wouldn鈥檛 blame him if he never wanted to speak to her again. Elizabeth manages to get them together, and after some initial awkwardness Vince apologises; he鈥檚 really glad to see Beth. Beth tells him he was right about boyfriend Nathan 鈥� he鈥檚 a total loser. Vince says he鈥檚 really fallen on his feet with Elizabeth and Beth should come for tea with them. Despite some reluctance from Beth, Elizabeth ends up dragging her and Vince on to the floor as they all dance to Vince鈥檚 favourite song.
