Extended Summary
Morag arrives at the police station looking for Ross. Charlie tells her that they had a disagreement and Morag blames herself for letting Ross go out by himself. Charlie and Angelo check with the locals, while Morag and Alf search the beach for any sign of Ross.
In the breakwater of the ocean, Ross struggles to get to his feet but drops his phone into the water and when Morag later finds the phone, her concerns escalate. Meanwhile, a clearly disorientated and confused Ross arrives on Rachel’s doorstep. As Morag and Charlie arrive to collect Ross, he apologises to Charlie for all that happened.
With Ruby and Geoff back in Summer Bay, Irene agrees to let Ruby move in until things are sorted between her and Charlie. Learning that Ruby is back in town, Xavier visits her and begins to question her about her time away with Geoff as his jealousy begins to get the better of him. Geoff offers to talk to Xavier but Ruby refuses.
Charlie apologises to Ruby and says she never meant to hurt her. Ruby tells Charlie that Michelle showed her the photo album and admits that she now realises that Charlie didn’t hate her or abandon her. She adds that she just needs some time. She’s still angry but she needs her time and space if they’re going to get through things.
Xavier confronts Ruby and Geoff when they arrive together with Annie. As an argument ensues, Ross and Morag arrive and Ross grabs hold of Xavier. As Ross goes to hit Xavier he accidentally hits Morag instead. Later, Ross admits to Alf that he didn’t mean to hit Morag and he thought it was Charlie being attacked all over again. Meanwhile, Morag talks to Rachel about Ross’s worsening condition and Rachel admits that it might be time for Morag to consider putting Ross in full-time care.
Jai talks to Annie about her and Dexter and Annie insists that Dexter is only a friend and doesn’t have romantic feelings for her. Later, Annie tries to talk to Dexter about what’s going on between them and Dexter goes in to kiss her but Annie pulls away. He apologises but Annie steps forward and kisses him.
