Extended Summary

Vinnie’s been made the chairman of his father’s new company. Vinnie’s excited, even though the business isn’t making much of a profit. Leah’s still worried, and after Alf shared his concerns, she asked Vinnie not to get the diner involved. Vinnie’s upset she won’t trust him, as he feels this is a great way to get to know his father. Colleen suspects Ralph is playing them for fools. She commented on how well Ralph looked. Strangely enough, he had another ‘turn’ this afternoon. Something most certainly isn’t right.
Brodie got arrested yesterday. Rhys and Shelley are still fuming. Irene is less than impressed with Hayley and was telling her she thought she’d know better. Anyway, whatever happened, Brodie keeps sticking up for Alex. Not sure why though because it looks like the Alex of old is emerging, as Rhys caught him chatting up another girl in the surf club.

Speaking of flirts, Will had a brush with one named Carmen. Surprisingly, Dani didn’t get upset. She didn’t have to worry, as Carmen backed off. Will must have told her about Dani.

Back to Irene and Hayley. Irene has made it very clear that she doesn’t like Aidan and it now looks like Irene’s trying to get Noah and Hayley together, as she asked him around when she heard Aidan was taking Hayley out to dinner. Unfortunately for Noah and Irene things didn’t quite go according to plan, and Noah went off at Hayley. Nooah certainly gave Hayley something to think about.
