Episode 407

Extended Summary

At the Diner, Adam, Matt and Steven are complaining about the holes that have been drilled in the raft flotation units. They argue with the girls until Ailsa kicks them all out.

Celia is on the phone to the police when Morag arrives home and finds the house trashed. Celia tells Morag there’s no sign of forced entry and Morag says she must have forgotten to lock up. She doesn’t want the police involved but Celia says this monster is getting serious now. Morag says if this is the worst he can do it’s no great thread, but looks clearly shaken.

Coral is paying for her shopping at the store and Steven is looking at a soldering gun kit but it’s $79 and he can’t afford it. Alf only has three of them left and says they won’t sit on the shelf for long. Celia comes running in and tells Alf about the break-in at Morag’s and her not locking up. Alf says the brilliant minds always crack first. Celia thinks they should ask Danny to move in again.

In his caravan, Danny talks to his father’s picture again, telling him he left the judge a little surprise today. She can’t feel safe any more. He’s going to bust her life up again just like she did to them.

Steven shows the girls the holes in the raft. Carly is amused and thinks Bobby did it. Stacey is suspicious and asks how come they didn’t sink during the practise run before the race. Emma appears and says that was because she plugged the holes with soap that would take a while to dissolve. She admits with delight that she was responsible.

Celia is looking in a mirror at the store; her eyes look dreadful from losing sleep over Morag! Alf tells her she can’t fill Morag’s house up with guests without telling her. Coral comes in and asks Alf if she can exchange her cheap coffee for the real stuff. She hands him $2 and then goes and exchanges the coffee… for a soldering gun! Danny arrives and Celia tries to persuade him to move back in with Morag but Danny says there is something spooky about her. He claims Morag is imagining the threatening phone calls.

Back at the Diner, Carly and Viv are laughing about what Emma did but Bobby isn’t amused; she wanted to beat the boys legitimately. Steven comes in and shows Carly the soldering gun Coral has given him as a present. Carly asks where she got that kind of money.

Celia and Alf are discussing Danny’s theory about Morag. Alf suggests Morag could have made the calls Celia received. Celia admits the voice was distorted but did sound familiar. Alf says she had the knock on the head when the plane went down, and Richard leaving her; he’s seen people go round the twist on less.

Alf is back home talking to Ailsa, who is amused by the theory that Morag is crazy. Alf reminds Ailsa that Morag helped her when she had post-natal depression but Ailsa refuses to get involved and get sued for slander!

Celia comes to Stacey’s flat to ask for Andrew’s phone number for a friend who needs counselling. Stacey cottons on that she’s talking about Morag and doesn’t think she would agree to it.

Adam finds Emma sitting on a tree trunk over the river and tries to apologise to her. Carly sees them from a distance and isn’t impressed. Adam tells Emma that he made the bet before he got to know her and asks if they can’t forget about it. Emma is disappointed she didn’t get to see the raft sink and asks Adam to re-enact it. Adam jumps into the river and Emma walks off!

At the store, Steven is questioning Celia who says nobody has bought a soldering gun kit today. He leaves while Celia carries on talking. Morag comes in and asks who she’s talking to. Morag has forgotten to buy some things in Yabbie Creek and Celia asks her if she often gets memory loss! Morag thinks Celia has been acting strangely lately and asks if she has reached a certain time of life! She recommends a counsellor.

Emma returns to the Diner and Carly has a go at her for moving in on Adam. Emma informs her that Adam was the one moving in on her and she told him to go and jump in the river. Carly goes straight to the flat and tells Adam what she thinks of him.

Emma arrives home and Alf lectures her for sabotaging the raft as somebody could have been hurt. Emma yells at him to leave her alone.

Morag comes into the Diner to talk to Ailsa about Celia being unhinged and asks if she could talk to her. Ailsa tries to talk to Morag about her situation but Morag refuses to have Danny move back in. Steven comes in and tells Carly he’s been to the store and it looks like Coral stole the soldering gun.

Danny picks up a rope and a mask in his caravan and says it’s time to visit the judge again; this will send her over the edge for sure.

Alf apologises to Emma for earlier asks if they can start again. Ailsa comes in as Alf tries to put his arm around Emma. Emma yells at Alf not to touch her and runs out of the house.

Morag enters her house and in one of the show’s most shocking cliffhangers so far we see a pair of legs dangling from the ceiling. Morag looks up and is horrified.
