1. Steph fears Anthony is back
Steph lives in fear after the Miligan family receive a delivery of flowers, supposedly from Anthony. She wonders whether Anthony could somehow still be alive.
Jai soon confesses that he sent the flowers to mess with Caleb and his family. Ruby tries to put an end to Jai’s games by telling him the truth about Anthony’s abuse.
Ruby is relieved when Jai agrees to back off, but a new problem could be developing when a curious Joe watches their suspicious interaction from afar.
2. John faces difficult questions over Anthony’s fate
Steph continues to obsess with her wild theories over Anthony. She heads to the spot where John claimed to have buried the body and tries to dig up the unmarked grave.
Steph’s family find her there and desperately attempt to stop her, but they get distracted when they realise that the soil seems completely undisturbed. This casts doubt on John’s claims to have buried the body there and they once again question whether Anthony is really d.e.a.d.
3. Caleb stumbles across a clue
Caleb realises that Joe is taking an unwelcome interest in his family’s secrets. He knows that it’s wise to keep your enemies close, so he invites Joe over for lunch.
Joe’s visit leads to Caleb catching a glimpse of his pills. Caleb is instantly suspicious and realises that Joe is hiding major secrets of his own.
4. Noah recalls his strange flashback
Caleb wonders if Noah could hold the key to exposing Joe’s secrets. He sabotages a light fixture in the depot office so that Noah will come over to fix it.
As they chat, Caleb questions Noah and finds out that the young electrician had strange visions of Joe after his drink was spiked. Caleb’s suspicions grow and he wastes no time before investigating further.
5. Joe puts Dawn on the spot over their future
Joe challenges Dawn to be honest over her feelings, claiming that it’s obvious she still loves him. Dawn knows that Joe is right and she’s left with a life-changing decision when he encourages her to leave Billy so they can be together properly.
Dawn confides in Manpreet about her problems, unaware that the local GP was the mystery woman Billy shared racy messages with recently.
Later, Dawn gives Joe her decision. Is she ready to end her marriage to be with him?
6. Aaron and John face more relationship problems
Aaron suggests to John that they should use Chas and Liam’s bookings for their own wedding. This follows Chas and Liam’s decision to postpone their ceremony due to the recent Ella drama.
John doesn’t seem overly enthusiastic, much to Aaron’s dismay. The next day, though, John apologises and finally starts to acknowledge some of his faults in the relationship.
7. Victoria meddles in the wedding
When talk turns to wedding guests, John explains that he doesn’t have many family or friends so won’t be inviting a large number of people.
Victoria intervenes by planning to go behind John’s back and invite some of his army friends to the stag. Could this expose John’s secrets?
8. Jacob and Kammy vow to go head-to-head
Jacob’s jealousy over Sarah’s new boyfriend takes another turn when he decides to expose Kammy as a cheater. He hopes to catch Kammy with another woman to get him out of the picture for good.
Later in the week, Jacob arranges to race Kammy on dirt bikes – convinced that he can outmatch his rival. Charity worries about Jacob putting his personal safety at risk and encourages him to make a proper training programme so that it all goes well.
9. Disgraced Tracy receives advice from Kerry
Tracy continues to feel sheepish after being caught out for stealing from Eric.
As Tracy is blaming Nate’s absence for her financial issues, Kerry encourages her to take matters into her own hands and actively search for her estranged husband. Will Nate’s grisly fate finally be revealed?
