It's Hendrix's first day at Erinsborough High and he covers his nerves with his general brattiness. When Harlow rubs him up the wrong way, he takes matters into his own hands. Harlow has a presentation where she's planning to hand out positive affirmations and Hendrix pranks her, replacing them with sanitary pads. Harlow gets the last laugh, pointing out there's nothing embarrassing about periods.

Hendrix recovers from his put-down and approaches Mackenzie about the Butterfly Ball. He charmingly manipulates her into asking him to go as her date.

Meanwhile, Shane is thrilled when one of his leads on Grant Hargreaves looks like coming through. He has found Mackenzie's father's place of work and waits in nervous anticipation for a phone call from him. However, his hopes are dashed when he learns that Grant has left the store where he was last employed and left no forwarding details. His disappointment piques concern in Dipi, who suggests he take a step back and give it a rest. Dipi thinks he should be focusing on mending his strained relationship with Mackenzie and forget about finding her father.

Downcast, Shane agrees with her logic but his luck takes an unexpected turn when Grant contacts him out of the blue. Not only has he received Shane's messages, but he is coming to Erinsborough. How will Mackenzie deal with this huge news?

Elsewhere, Chloe, Mark and Aaron are worried sick about missing Fay and are about to get the police involved when Fay turns up on their doorstep. Their relief quickly turns to concern when it becomes clear that their mother is quite unwell. A visit from David brings devastating news – Fay's Huntingtons has progressed significantly and she is deteriorating quickly. They are told that Fay needs 24-hour supervision and know they can't expect Tyler and Piper to take on the full burden of carers.

As the three siblings contemplate who might move to Adelaide, Chloe volunteers, but Pierce encourages Mark to talk to his sister about her idea. Having a preview of her future will be terrible for Chloe. As they all head off to Adelaide to deal with this new life change as a family, Mark contemplates possibly leaving Erinsborough forever.
