Extended Summary

Bianca impresses upon Ruby the need to quell her feelings for Liam. If she couldn’t even control herself not to kiss him, then what’s next? Ruby is embarrassed and feeling low, Charlie picks up on this and Ruby covers, saying that she’s just having boy trouble. Charlie assumes it’s about Xavier and Ruby lets her believe this, there’s no way she can tell her about Liam. Later, Ruby gets an older kid to buy her some alcohol and she gets drunk in an attempt to wipe out the pain she’s feeling. She ends up at Liam’s house and as Liam approaches her she falls in his swimming pool – he’s horrified to find her in such a condition. He calls Nicole for help and she and Penn smuggle Ruby back to the Beach House. Nicole tells Liam he has to sort things out with Ruby, he watches as she’s lead away – devastated at the mess he’s made.

Nicole is still angry with the Summer Bay House residents for what she believes is their sabotage of her relationship with Penn. Sid insists he’s telling the truth regarding Penn making up the story about him still having feelings for Nicole. Again, Nicole defends Penn but Alf tells Sid he’s sure that despite all her hot air she must have taken on some of what they told her. Nicole questions Penn, asking him whether he did lie about Sid’s feelings for her and he denies it. He says he did threaten Sid and that’s probably why Sid is accusing Penn of lying.

Leah is down and despondent post Elijah leaving, and it is affecting her sleep, which in turn is affecting her work.

Leah is tired and Rachel and Tony are feuding over Daniel’s job offer. The night comes to an end and Daniel is surprised when Rachel announces that despite Tony’s disapproval she is seriously considering moving to the States to work for him. Tony overhears this and is not happy.
