Extended Summary
Shattered after receiving her chemo results, Maddy can’t face going through a new treatment plan with Roo and Alf, choosing instead to hang out with Evelyn. As she breaks down, Oscar and Matt arrive at the Farm House, crashing Maddy’s privacy. Later at the beach, Maddy sees Matt, and he tells that her he quit Angelo’s, frustrated that he’s back where he started – no job, and no girlfriend. With her failed treatment, Maddy can relate, both unable to see a way forward. Oscar finds Maddy on the pier, and encourages her to fight for her life. Unable to get through to her, he pulls out the big guns, revealing Spencer’s plans for the Colour Run. Maddy’s shocked, but Oscar stays firm – if she won’t fight for herself, she should fight for those that care about her.
Keen to get some space from the rest of Summer Bay, Oscar invites Matt out to the Farm House. But when they get there, they find Evelyn with an upset Maddy, their plan ruined. Then when Josh arrives to deliver a pizza in an Angelo’s uniform, Matt loses it, outraged that Josh has taken his job. Matt storms into Angelo’s, and in a rush of blood, tells Phoebe he’s quit. The only person that understands him is Maddy, but it’s not enough, as he goes back to Leah’s for his things, and leaves in the dead of night – is Matt moving on?
With Leah looking unlikely to wake up, VJ tells Zac that he’s prepared to move in with his Gran, leaving Zac free to live his old life again. Although tempted by VJ’s offer, Zac feels like he’d be letting Leah down. But Alf offers him some perspective, pointing out that he’s done a lot more for VJ than most blokes would, and it’s alright to get on with his own journey now. Zac tells VJ that he thinks it’d be best for his long-term future if he moves in with his Gran. As he processes this information, in hospital, Leah opens her eyes. She’s back!
Determined to claim their shared bedroom as his own, Chris takes the initiative, and moves Spencer’s things into Sasha’s room when he’s not home. But when Spencer sees what he’s done, he tackles him, and their fight leads to a broken window. When will this insanity stop?!?!
