Mel tries to brush off Ben when he asks for information about Lisa. She returns to Hunter and tries her best to help him, which includes researching antibiotics.
With Sharon worried about the baby, Mel surprisingly offers to accompany her to the hospital. However, it seems Mel has an ulterior motive as she also uses this as an opportunity to help Hunter.
Back on the Square later, Ben follows Mel as she heads off to see Hunter. Will he get close to the truth?
Meanwhile, Whitney finds Callum's letters from Chris, but he dodges the opportunity to tell her the truth. Whitney is uneasy, but after some reassurance from Sonia, she tells Callum that she's not interested in his past and is only focusing on their future as a couple.
Elsewhere, Bailey arranges a meeting with a medium called Shyanna.
Also today, Jean confides in Daniel about the situation with Stacey, Kathy confronts Rainie over her use of painkillers, while Max fails to impress some of Ruby's clients.
