Extended Summary

Leah is going stir crazy and tries to persuade Zac to let her go on the Canberra excursion, but he’s having none of it. He volunteers to stay behind but Leah wants him to go and asks him to keep an eye on Matt. Leah persuades a reluctant Irene to let her cover her shift at the diner. Leah and Hannah see each other for the first time since the accident when Denny and Hannah go to the diner for breakfast. During the shift Leah burns herself making coffee, and snaps at Chris when he tries to help. Hannah is worried about Leah, they talk about life after the accident. Denny wonders why Hannah and Andy aren’t taking advantage of the empty house while the teens are all on their excursion. She volunteers to be out of the house later on to give Hannah and Andy some alone time after his assessment. Zac is concerned when he finds out from Chris that Leah seemed vague when she burned herself.

Kyle puts the pressure on Andy just before the assessment, they’ll lose their licence unless he gets qualified. Spencer, acting as the client, keeps showing Andy up in front of the assessor. Afterwards a simmering Kyle gives Andy the bad news that he’s borderline so will have to get at least 90% in his written exam. While Spencer boasts to Chris that he also has the skills to be a personal trainer Chris gets a call with the bad news that their father has been in a car accident. Ash tells Kyle that Gunno is after Brax and tries to enlist Kat’s help but she says there’s nothing she can do. Kyle has another idea, and with help from Zac’s contacts, Ash gets into the prison and visits Gunno who makes him an offer – Brax’s safety in exchange for smuggling drugs.

Kat and Nate meet while jogging on the beach and they make peace when he offers friendship. Kat confesses that she’s a control freak because when she was personally involved with a former colleague, an operation went wrong and her reputation was ruined. So now she feels like she’s been given a second chance. Nate is drawn in by Kat’s confession and tries to kiss her but she pulls away and asks him to leave.
