Episode 6333

Extended Summary

Kat stumbles from her car, disorientated and dizzy. She calls out when she sees Kyle and as he rushes over she collapses. In hospital Nate examines her, saying they’ll know more when they get her test results back. Kat insists they test for drugs. As Nate talks to Kyle about it he questions who would drug Kat and we cut to Charlotte, wrapping up Kat’s gun and handcuffs. She hides them in her freezer.

A despondent Evie sits in the surf club as excited schoolies buzz around her. When Andy approaches from the gym Evie gives him an iPod to give Josh, which she’s filled with podcasts. Andy says he’ll pretend the iPod is from him, as Josh is still angry with Evie. When Andy gives it to Josh he isn’t fooled though, guessing it was Evie’s idea. Andy tries to tell Josh that Evie feels terrible and only wants to help but Josh throws the iPod back at Andy and tells him to leave.

Maddy and Oscar sit in the diner, newly reconciled. They are soon joined by Matt and Asia. Asia is intensely excited about schoolies while Matt is less enthused. As Oscar and Asia chat about schoolies and uni, Maddy and Matt exchange a loaded look. Maddy hustles Oscar out, wanting to escape her confusion over her growing feelings for Matt. Back at the caravan park, amongst the chaos of schoolies, Matt spots Maddy walking through and insists that they talk about Maddy saying she doesn’t want Matt hooking up with other girls. Maddy reluctantly agrees to talk, but not in the caravan park. They talk on the beach where it’s quieter. Maddy confesses that she has feelings for Matt, but that she’s shutting them down because nothing’s ever going to happen between them. Matt’s stung by how blunt she is, then their conversation is cut short as Oscar approaches and Maddy puts on a bright smile as they leave hand in hand, with Oscar kindly saying they should go and find Evie, which solidifies Maddy feelings that she’s doing the right thing. Matt’s left alone.

In the hospital Nate is approached by Superintendent Joyce who asks to see Kat. Nate doesn’t allow him to see Kat immediately but goes to see her himself. He tells her that her results are back and that there are no traces of drugs but that there was a high alcohol concentration. Kat is upset to realise that Nate doesn’t believe her when she insists that she wasn’t drinking. Once she’s discharged Kat tries to reason with Superintendent Joyce, and as they get into the lift Kyle gets out. Kyle asks Nate what’s going on and is immediately suspicious. He goes straight round to see Charlotte and asks whether she drugged Kat. Charlotte doesn’t admit to anything but makes it very clear that both of them could benefit if Kat were to lose her job. Charlotte then slams the door in Kyle’s face, leaving him wishing he’d never got caught up with her. Down at the station Superintendent Joyce interviews Kat, mentioning that she’s had issues with drinking and with Charlotte before. Kat tries to protest but he shuts her down, telling her that she’s suspended for two weeks.

Oscar and Maddy arrive at the schoolies party at the surf club with a reluctant Evie. As soon as Oscar goes to get them all drinks Asia accosts the girls, asking for advice with Matt, convinced that he’s into her. Maddy is uncomfortable, but Asia rushes off towards Matt as she sees him across the room. Asia dances enthusiastically around Matt, who gestures behind Asia’s back at Maddy and Evie for help. Asia thinks it’s going well and moves in to kiss Matt with her eyes closed. When there’s no kiss she opens her eyes to find that Matt has run off, leaving her surrounded by schoolies laughing at her. She’s upset and goes to leave but Oscar stops her, telling her that soon someone else will do something stupid and no-one will remember her embarrassment. He’s right and his kind words comfort her, but as she asks how she could have been so wrong about Matt liking her Oscar explains that Matt likes Maddy. Asia suddenly realises that’s why Maddy was reluctant to give her advice on how to win Matt’s affections and suddenly Oscar’s the one who’s uncomfortable. He tells her it’s one sided and that nothing’s going on between Matt and Maddy but as Asia apologises, it’s clear that Oscar’s becoming suspicious despite his attempts to brush off Matt and Maddy’s behaviour.

Kyle and Andy are in an empty Angelo’s, the schoolies party downstairs keeping away customers. They talk about Josh and how he blames Evie for his condition. They stop talking as Evie appears, intending to order a pizza to take home but Andy asks if she’d rather join him and she sits next to him, united by their mutual concern for Josh.

Kat goes to see Charlotte, wanting to know how she got the alcohol into her and demands her gun and handcuffs. Charlotte just plays with her, tauntingly denying everything.

Back at the party, as Maddy lines up to do the limbo Matt apologises to her for what happened with Asia and asks if they can be mates. Maddy does the limbo and gestures for Matt that it’s his turn. As he limbos under the bar Maddy playfully pushes him over, and Oscar standing nearby watches, a little concerned but trying to grin along with the mood. As Maddy reaches a hand to help Matt up he pulls her down too, and she lands on top of him. Asia appears and tells them that their behaviour is horrible. She storms off leaving Matt and Maddy feeling extremely awkward and a devastated Oscar leaves. Later on Maddy harshly tells Matt to just deal with how he feels. Meanwhile a dejected Oscar has found Asia in a similar mood by the campfire in the caravan park. Oscar tells her how stupid he feels, there were plenty of warning signs. Asia tells him that if he were her boyfriend she wouldn’t look twice at anyone else. As she goes on to say how smart and funny he is Oscar cuts her off with a kiss… Is Oscar making a big mistake?
