Extended Summary

Leah arrives at Hannah’s to check on her and she begins to cry; she thinks she’s ruined everything. After Leah calms her down Hannah reveals she thinks she only cheated because Sean reminded her of the life she was supposed to have. Instead she’s here in Summer Bay, parenting two teenagers, in the same routine. Hannah doesn’t know how to fix the situation. Leah suggests before she does, Hannah thinks about what she really wants. At school, Zac asks how Leah went with Hannah. Leah explains that it’s not just what happened with Andy that’s upsetting her, Hannah resents the way her life has turned out. Having to take care of the twins when she’s still in her twenties is a lot for Hannah to deal with. Zac agrees its difficult but until the twins are old enough to move out, Hannah doesn’t really have a choice. Leah has another idea – Why don’t we ask the twins to move in with us? Zac is gobsmacked.

Josh is checking up on Andy at the gym and discovers he’s been crashing there at night. Josh offers up his room for Andy but Andy shuts him down. He doesn’t want the help. Josh shares that he’s still angry at Evie for lying as well. Andy reminds Josh that Hannah & Evie are family, and how many times has Josh lied for Andy? Andy suggests to stop taking it out on Evie when she hasn’t done anything wrong.

At school, Oscar & Maddy run into Matt who starts ribbing them about their PDA’s. Maddy surmises that Matt is all uptight because he hasn’t had any action since Sasha. Little does she know of Matt’s recent rumble with the new teacher. Maddy suggests she sets Matt up with his dream girl, but Matt is not enthused. Later at lunch, Matt meets up with Charlotte to tell her he believes Leah is onto them. Matt asks should they lay low? But Charlotte has a better idea. Charlotte approaches Leah at school. Leah mentions she’s noticed some tension between her and Matt. Charlotte makes up a story about Matt being put out after getting some bad feedback on a biology test. Leah instantly becomes worried about Matt’s grades and asks Charlotte if she’d be able to give Matt some extra tutoring? Charlotte tries to back pedal but Leah insists until Charlotte caves under the pressure. As Leah excitedly rushes off to set it up with Matt, Charlotte realises that just back fired big time. Further along the corridor, It’s Jett’s last day at Summer Bay High before transferring to his new school. Jett asks VJ if everyone is playing down the fact that he’s leaving because there’s a big surprise party planned later? VJ says no; John & Marilyn said he didn’t want a fuss. Jett seems a little disappointed.

Josh finds Evie after school. She quickly starts explaining how she felt so awful keeping Hannah’s secret from him and how she was torn between her loyalty to both of them. Josh tells her she doesn’t need to apologise, Josh is the one who’s sorry. He was angry and took it out on her. They make up. Meanwhile, Matt is walking home with Oscar & Maddy discussing his impending set up. Maddy raves about the girl she’s picked for him and tells Matt to be at Angelo’s tonight, dressed well. Leah catches sight of Matt and pulls him aside to tell him that Ms. King has offered to give him extra tuition. Matt is caught off guard but when Leah asks him to do this for her, he concedes.

Zac runs into Andy coming out of the surf. He points out to Andy that the fall out of his situation is now affecting the twins. He asks Andy to try and lessen the impact to them. And how is he supposed to do that? Zac says he can start by not hating Hannah – no one hates her more than herself right now.

Sean shows up on Hannah’s doorstep. She tries to stop him from coming in but Sean wants 5 minutes to talk. He reveals he’s left his wife for good; Hannah’s the one for him. Hannah is incredulous – it wasn’t even about him! She was just looking for a way out of her life. He says then they should run away together; head overseas. Andy walks in at this moment, suspecting this is some kind of romantic reunion. Hannah pauses at the sight of Andy but he quickly leaves; Hannah pleading after him that this is not what it looks like. After Andy’s left, Hannah throws Sean out and tells him to get out of her life for good. Andy heads to Angelo’s where he finds Emma, Sean’s wife, drinking alone. She not sullen, more celebrating her new freedom from Sean. She invites Andy to join her and pours him a drink. Emma points out that Andy shouldn’t worry, he won’t be single for long. He’s a good looking guy. Is she making a play for him? Soon enough they’re in the closed gym, ripping each other’s clothes off. But suddenly, Andy stops, he can’t do this. He asks Emma to leave. Soon after, Andy is punching away at the gym, his back turned, when Hannah comes to talk. She insists he misinterpreted the situation at her house. Andy turns to reveal he’s been crying. Hannah is shocked at his raw emotions, realising he’s truly a broken man. He yells at her to get out and Hannah retreats, also shattered.

Jett is walking home with John & Marilyn and can’t believe no one made a big deal of his last day. VJ texts Jett to meet him at the diner but Jett’s not really in the mood. John and Marilyn give him a push, almost insisting he go. Once they all turn up at the diner, everyone is there for a surprise party! Jett is ecstatic. All the teens says good luck and Jett has a heartfelt goodbye with VJ, saying they’ll always be best mates. Then Maddy asks Leah where Matt is…

Back at school, Matt and Charlotte are having great banter at his “fake” tutoring session when Matt gets a text. He mentions he’s meant to meet Maddy & Oscar for this double date. Charlotte says she’s happy to wrap up if he’s got somewhere to be, but Matt says he doesn’t want to go. He makes a joke that she’s ruined him and now younger girls just aren’t his thing. The tension between them is palpable, and even though Charlotte verbalises that she shouldn’t be doing this, she’s soon drawn in as Matt kisses her. Looks like it’s on again between these two.
