Brax decides to plead guilty so he can get a lighter sentence. Matt farewells Sasha as she leaves for Uni. Andy tells Hannah he can’t keep fighting her battles for her.
Extended Summary
Brax tells Ash about his meeting with the lawyer, and Ash advises him not to plead guilty, as there is nothing worse than doing time for a crime you didn’t commit. However, after much reflection, he realises that he has to do what’s best for Ricky and his unborn son. He calls his lawyer and asks him to do a deal – he’s going to plead guilty.
It’s Sasha’s last night in the Bay, and she’s planned a romantic picnic on the beach with Matt to say goodbye. But Matt can’t go because he has detention for fighting with Spencer. Sasha is angry and disappointed, and tells him not to bother – she’ll see him in three weeks when she gets back. While in detention, Zac convinces Matt to talk to Sasha about his feelings. Matt later shows up at her house, apologises, and surprises her with a surprise candlelit dinner and Mexican-themed feast. They finally talk about how they will deal with having a long-distance relationship, resolving to talk every day, and to take turns visiting each other every weekend. As they say goodbye, Matt finally admits to Sasha that he loves her.
Hannah is still bedridden following her accident and is unwilling to go outside, while Andy waits on her – never leaving her side. When she tries to cancel her physio appointment, Nate shows up at the house unannounced, and tells Andy he thinks Hannah is hiding behind him, and that she needs to draw on her own strength and push herself, if she’s ever going to walk again. He confronts Hannah, and reassures her that he believes she can make a full recovery, but she is afraid it’s more likely that she’ll never walk again. When he tries to push her to get some fresh air, she becomes angry and kicks him out. Hannah later tells Andy that she wants to get a new doctor, but Andy agrees with Nate, telling her she needs to face up to her situation, and that he can’t keep doing everything for her – because he feels it is holding her back. Will Hannah be strong enough to overcome her injuries and walk again?
