Extended Summary

It seems that Jill isn’t the nice woman she makes herself to be. Irene confronted her about Hayley and was shocked when Jill turned around and said, ‘You’ve stolen my son away from me, how do you like a taste of your own medicine?’ Irene was just trying to help Noah – something his mum isn’t doing. Irene’s really worried about him…she knows what he’s going through. Let’s hope Jill will leave Summer Bay soon because she’s doing more harm than good.

Everyone is worried about Dani’s dealings with Kane. Especially Sally. Dani is spending more time with him and Sally thinks it’s looking too friendly. Sally tried talking to Dani, but she just denies it.

Leah’s stressing about the Diner after hearing about Colleen and Alf’s constant fights. Shauna tried consoling Leah but ended up worrying her more when she mentioned Alex and Brodie’s behaviour at school. She told Leah that it’s thanks to them that Fisher closed the common room, which isn’t correct. It was the empty beer bottle that Fisher found.

Leah tried to talk to Alex about it but they ending up arguing instead. Vinnie also had a go at Alex for upsetting Leah when she’s so fragile. This got to Alex. He’s moved out and is living in the caravan park.

Duncan was surprised at how good Nick and the twins were at the talent quest. Apparently the audience loved it and Kirsty and Jade couldn’t stop bubbling about it.
