Paul offers Scarlett a cash bribe, in exchange for keeping what she knows private. He suggests she could use the money to start anew elsewhere, but Scarlett refuses. All she wants for her silence is to keep her job and remain close to Ned. Paul has no choice to agree, but is unable to shake a niggling feeling that something more is at play. He breaks into Scarlett's locker to find out more about her, when he's busted by an irate Terese.

Exasperated by his recklessness, Terese urges Paul to drop his vendetta against Scarlett and focus on the more pressing work issues they're facing. In order to support Terese, Paul is forced to loosen up on Scarlett. But unbeknown to either of them, Scarlett has all the footage from the hidden cameras, including recordings of Amy and Kyle. Paul has no idea how risky the game he's playing truly is.

What to Read Next

Later, Scarlett seeks to convince Ned there's more than friendship between them. Ned is thrown, having thought they were on the same page about their night together and has to explain he isn't ready for what she wants. Disappointed, Scarlett realises she needs to up the ante to draw Ned in.

That night, Scarlett asks Ned to escort her down to the tram, claiming to have left her phone there. Ned agrees, unaware he's walking into a trap. Out of the darkness, a motorbike rider targets the pair, speeding towards them. Just as the bike is set to take them out, Ned stands frozen. Will he get out of the way in time?

Meanwhile, Amy's luck starts to turn when she finds herself headhunted. A colleague she worked with on Robinson Pines wants her to interview for project manager on a high-profile country club development. It's a dream gig, but Amy is apprehensive about leaving The Handywoman. However, supportive Kyle can't let Amy pass up this once in a lifetime chance. He volunteers to help with the business any way she needs and encourages Amy to follow her passion. Buoyed by her partner, Amy accepts, thrilled that things are turning around.
