Extended Summary

Still in shock from the news of her pregnancy, Tasha tries to conceal her tears when Martha enters the room. Tasha can’t hold back – she crumbles and tells Martha of the night Jonah raped her – it’s his baby! Martha wants to call Jack, but Tasha hasn’t even told Robbie yet! What will she do? Martha comforts her poor, distressed friend…

Kim races in to see if Tasha is okay when he bumps into Rachel, on her emergency shift. She assures Kim that Tasha is fine, but he will have to wait in line to visit her. Rachel takes a seat, dog tired from her shift, Kim offers her a coffee. They sit in silence for a moment before Rachel turns to him and tells Kim that she misses him. He is grateful for her honesty – he really misses her too. Irene and Robbie arrive and head in to see Tasha, Kim gives Rachel a smile and follows.

Tasha can’t tell Robbie the truth, not yet… Martha’s heart goes out to her as Robbie and Irene arrange to take Tasha home. Nurse Julie insists that Rachel heads home too – Kim offers to take her – she tries to protest, but is too tired and gives in.

Home at the Beach House, the burden of the awful truth is too much for Tasha – she excuses herself and goes to her bedroom. She dissolves into huge, silent sobs. Martha drops in later that night to check on her friend – Tasha lets her know that she still hasn’t told Robbie and doesn’t know if she can keep this baby… Tasha falls asleep beside Robbie that night, watching him, tears streaming down her fragile face…

Rachel finishes up the meal Kim prepared for her – he is really worried about the pressure Helpman is putting on her – so is she. It’s getting late, Kim thinks he should head off, even though he’d love to stay. A moment of urst… Kim reminds Rachel that he is there for her anytime…

The next morning, Tasha takes a walk on the beach with Martha – ‘you have to tell Robbie, to share the burden, you can’t do this without him…’ Will Tasha do it? Martha takes the very weak Tasha home – Tasha assures them that she is okay and that there is something she has to tell them… Robbie, Irene and Martha sit with her as Tasha reveals that she is pregnant and how that came to be….the awful truth out at last. Martha and Irene comfort her, as Robbie paces the room ready to kill Jonah! He is incapable of controlling his anger, apologises and Tasha and assures her that they will get through this, no matter what. He insists that he should go and see Jonah – Irene doesn’t think that is a good idea – but nothing will stop Robbie on this one – he heads out leaving a frustrated Irene and Martha.

Rachel gets a call from Nurse Julie – two of Rachel’s patients have cancelled their appointments and transferred to see Helpman instead – this bullying is getting way out of hand! She hesitates before heading down to the Surf Club to see Kim… Rachel finds him alone working. They stare at each other for a beat before they dive into a passionate kiss. Kim wants to know what this means? She smiles – she has decided that this Helpman stuff has to stop, she wants to be with Kim and will go to the board and report all of the abuse and harassment. Together at last!

Robbie charges with purpose toward the prison gatehouse – it’s visitors day, but Robbie isn’t on the list. The prison guard checks it out, returns and lets Robbie know that Jonah doesn’t want to see him. Robbie gets fired up and gets thrown out by the guard! Tears of frustration spring into his eyes as Charity appears – Robbie goes off – he wants answers, now! Charity confirms everything Tasha has said as the truth. She and the others, including Tasha, were all drugged and brainwashed by Mumma Rose – she apologises to Robbie for all he has been through. Robbie asks why Tasha’s blood tests came back negative. Charity reveals that they paid off people in ‘high places’ to fix things for them. Robbie demands to know who – Charity reveals it was Mayor Josh West! Robbie can’t believe it! That scum bag Josh West is responsible for Tasha’s predicament?!
