So, the girl we knew and loved as bubbly Zoe McCalister is
actually the Summer Bay Stalker! Who would have thought?
Anyway, just incase you missed any of Zoe/Eve's dramatic
revelation in Tuesday's episode, let's run through the
reasons behind the whole situation.
Sarah Lewis began
terrorising Summer Bay after she suspected them of killing
her lover Felix Walters. Sarah herself was in fact the
killer, but drugs had caused her to completely forget this,
and she wanted revenge! After shooting Jesse McGregor in the
head, Sarah Lewis was
captured and sent to a mental institute to try and help her
recover. It was there she met a woman called Eve Jacobson.
Eve, who we've come to know as Zoe McCalister, was
Sarah's carer at the institute. Sarah started out as just
another case for Eve, but as she and Sarah got talking, they
grew closer and soon fell in love. Sarah told Eve that she
loved her the way she loved Felix,
and it was then that trouble began! Eve
saw past Sarah's crazy exterior, and saw the kind and gentle
woman inside. She realised that Sarah needed to be freed,
she needed to be let back into the world. So, she hatched a
plan to let Sarah escape. While caring for her, Eve let
Sarah out, before running to her management screaming claims
that Sarah had broken free! Unfortunately
for Eve, things didn't quite work out as planned. Sarah took
Summer Bay hostage in a dramatic episode last year, and the
situation ended in tragedy when she shot Noah Lawson, before
turning the gun on herself. Eve broke down when she heard
the news, and soon
started to hatch a plan to get revenge on Summer Bay - after
all, if the town had never killed Felix, Sarah would never
have been sent to the institute, and she would still have
been alive! Fortunately for Eve, a
peculiar coincidence made getting revenge far easier than
she had imagined. After the news of Sarah's death reached
her, Eve went alone to a bar to drown her sorrows. It was
there that she met Zoe McCallister, a young black-haired
nurse of a similar age. Zoe had recently got a job at Yabbie
Creek Hospital, and just so happened to be planning to move
to Summer Bay. Eve couldn't believe her luck, and set her
plan in action. She spent weeks with Zoe, learning
everything she could about her - all about her family and
friends, what she was like and how she lived. She planned to
steal Zoe's identity, and needed to know as much about her
as she possibly could. She discovered that
Zoe had no close family, and only a few close friends back
in Perth. This was perfect, as it meant nobody would
immediately miss her if she were to disappear. Eve and Zoe
became so close that Eve suggested she accompany Zoe to
Summer Bay, just to help her settle in. Zoe agreed, and this
is where the Stalker storyline begins. As
the pair were driving into Summer Bay, Eve suggested that
they stop to take a picture by the 'Welcome to Summer Bay'
sign, a memento of their journey. As they did so, Eve
hastily attacked Zoe and killed her. In one of the first
suspicious events, she then started the bush fire to burn
the body. Eve then completely stole Zoe's
identity - she became the Zoe McCallister that we have come
to know and love over the past 4 months. She then set about
stalking the town of Summer Bay. Later this week, we explore
her actions! |
