Cindy, who had been in a coma since Christmas night, finally woke up on Thursday and immediately called for Ian to come see her at the hospital. The tension between the two was palpable as Cindy accused Ian of being involved in her attack. It all started when the truth about their affair was exposed, causing a rift between their families. Cindy had been cheating on Ian with her former stepson, Junior Knight, and it was all caught on tape thanks to Lauren Branning's scheming.
As the police arrived to question her about the attack, Cindy claimed to have no memory of it. But, she couldn't shake the feeling that Ian had something to do with it. Determined to get to the bottom of things, she called him to the hospital for a confrontation. Cindy was furious when she found out that Ian had lied to the police about their argument on Christmas night. He had thrown her out of the house and left her in the snow, but conveniently forgot to mention it to the police.
But Ian was not fazed by Cindy's accusations. In fact, he reminded her of her own dark past. He brought up the time when she had hired a hitman to kill him after she cheated on him in the 1990s. It was clear that their relationship was full of secrets and resentment. As Ian stormed out of the hospital room, Cindy was left to stew in her anger and pain.
Later, Cindy received a surprise visit from her son, Peter, and his girlfriend, Lauren. The tension between the two women was evident, as they had been blackmailing each other just last year. Cindy didn't waste any time in questioning Lauren about her whereabouts on the night of the attack. But Lauren cleverly deflected the questions and pointed out that Ian had lied to the police.
This seemed to give Cindy an idea. Later that evening, the police arrived at The Vic and made an unexpected arrest. To everyone's shock, Lauren was handcuffed and taken away as Cindy had framed her for the attack. Will Lauren be able to prove her innocence and clear her name? Or does she have something to hide?
