Extended Summary

Rachel and Kit yell out for help as their car slides further over the edge of the cliff. Their panic rises as Kit is overwhelmed by another sharp pain in her stomach – her condition is rapidly deteriorating. With no phone reception or help nearby, time is running out – but Rachel does her best to keep Kit calm for her sake and her baby’s. Kim, meanwhile, has received the message on his phone that Rachel and Kit are on their way to the hospital. He is immediately concerned and heads off with Dan to catch up with them. On their way, they spot Rachel’s car but are horrified to discover the life threatening situation they are in. Kim yells at Dan to get help as he races to the car. Although it’s extremely risky, Kim manages to help Kit through the back of the hatch but as she falls into Kim’s arms, Rachel screams as the car lunges forward again. There is a screech of tyres as Dan and Tony return to the site to help. They race to Kit, as Kim continues to help Rachel. Gathering her courage, Rachel leaps into Kim’s outstretched arms. He clutches on to her with dear life – she’s safe at last. Suddenly, Kit is gripped by another strike of pain – will she and her baby survive?

Kit is rushed into the hospital but her condition deteriorates further. After intensive tests, Kit is diagnosed with a severe migraine. Everyone’s relief is clear as the doctors announce she and baby will be just fine. Kim moves into Kit’s room and Kit praises Rachel for saving her life. She adds that she can’t believe they were arguing with one another earlier. Kim is pulled up short by the revelation the two woman were having an argument and despite Kit’s explanation, Kim is firmly convinced Rachel was the cause of Kit’s migraine.

Kim is forward in placing blame and Rachel is stunned by his accusations. Rachel doesn’t even get the chance to explain and it’s clear these two are on shaky ground. Back in the Summer Bay House, Martha arrives home. She takes a look around the house and checking the coast is clear she pulls out a pregnancy test from her bag and stares at it. Her face is a picture of anxiety – is she pregnant to Ash? Martha is momentarily distracted by the arrival of Alf who reports Kit and Rachel’s accident. Martha and Alf head to the hospital to check up on their friends. But when Martha returns home alone, she is once again feeling heavy hearted.

Martha takes the pregnancy test and waits anxiously for the results. After a moment, she picks it up and is devastated to see it is positive. Oh my God – Martha is pregnant to Ash!
