Extended Summary

After an eventful day, Shelley found out that Toni’s father abused her. Toni was kidnapped by John. Rhys went after them while Leo was able to cut them off in his ute. John started a bit of a ruckus, but Rhys decked him on the spot. Serves John right.
The Sutherlands and Leo were worried about Toni, as she stopped talking altogether. It wasn’t until later that night when Toni blurted out the sad truth about her father’s abuse.

Kirsty caught Jade in the bathroom, weighing herself before dinner. Lets hope that Jade hasn’t follows Melissa’s footsteps, and that Kirsty tells Shelley before it’s too late.

Meanwhile Brodie is doing everything she can to get closer to Alex. She’s helping him fix his van, but he only talks about Dani. Leah has been dropping hints to Alex, but all he says is ‘Brodie’s a good mate’.

A bit of sad news for Vinnie and Leah. It was thought Leah was pregnant, but the test came back negative. Leah said she doesn’t know what to do, because she thinks Geoff and Colleen have an idea something is up. It happened after Vinnie yelled at her when she was picking up some boxes. If Colleen knows or even thinks Leah’s pregnant, you can be sure she’ll tell the rest of Summer Bay. So much for trying to keep it a secret!
