Holly is shaken after receiving a gift supposedly from Heath. She is comforted by Yaz, who pounces on her vulnerable state. Maintaining a caring façade as she attempts to coax some sort of confession out of Holly, Yaz listens intently as Holly recounts her traumatic relationship with Heath and his final demise.
Yaz is also still stinging from Nicolette's rebuke, hopeful she can make it up to her.
Meanwhile, in the aftermath of the attempted hit and run, Byron and Sadie are grateful for Max's quick-thinking in pushing Sadie out of harm's way. They invite him to return to the share house, which is an offer he happily accepts.
What to Read Next
Privately though, Max worries he may have been the target. While still in hospital for observation, he sneaks out to see the injured driver, but doesn't recognise him. What does this mean?
Elsewhere, Krista is devastated to discover Sebastian has been injured in the car attack. She soon has confirmation the driver was found with Seb's photograph on his phone. When she also discovers Sebastian returned the money she had given him to pay off the loan sharks, she is awash with guilt for forcing him to choose between their friendship or the money.
By Sebastian's bedside, Krista makes an emotional apology, sad that she didn't take the danger he was in seriously. Leo also apologises, feeling responsible for inadvertently giving away Sebastian's whereabouts.
Elsewhere, Aaron runs into Rhett at The Waterhole. Rhett asks Aaron to a movie, prompting Aaron to clam up and rush back to work. Later, Jane shares heartfelt advice, pushing Aaron to reconsider the merit of some company. Encouraged, Aaron asks Rhett out, and Rhett accepts.
Also today, finally public, Paul and Terese are in a bubble of love, inadvertently embarrassing everyone with their public displays of affection.
