Summary : Joel Nash returns to the bay after six months away, revealing that he and Natalie have ended their relationship for good. However, he's shocked to learn of the pain the town is going through. Just as Gypsy is adjusting to being a foster mom to a baby and a three-year-old, her dad turns up. Jade is struggling not to revert to her old ways when she had bulimia, but Duncan is there to support her. In addition to helping Gypsy with her foster kids, Flynn and Sally have to adjust to her cancer diagnosis. Hayley gets offered a life-changing opportunity, which means she and Noah have to decide whether or not to leave the bay.

 

"G'day, Alf," Joel says as he walks into the Diner and sees his good mate behind the counter.

 

"Strike me roan, Joel Nash. How are you doing?"

 

"Taking it one day at a time, but doing okay, mate. I was so sorry to hear about Alisa when Gypsy called me."

 

"Thanks mate. You must be doing incredibly well if you're able to fly down here."

 

"Ah, well, I'm actually moving back."

 

"Young Gypsy never said anything. Is Natalie with you?"

 

"That's because she doesn't know. And as for Natalie, no, she isn't. We have actually parted ways for good this time. We realised it was never going to work, and we had just been making it work since the accident."

 

"I'm sorry mate."

 

"Don't be." 

 

 

 

"Who would have thought it would be so hard to get a three-year-old and a six-month-old baby out the door," Gypsy says to Flynn and Sally as she tries to get her foster kids' things together.

 

"It's crazy, right?" Flynn replies.

 

"You two knew you had to expect this when you decided to foster these little ones," Sally responds.

 

"Yeah, it's still crazy that you and I decided to become co-foster parents even though we aren't together," Gypsy tells Flynn as they all finally head out the door for the diner.

 

"It is but I wouldn't have it any other way," Flynn tells his best friend. 

 

 

"So, when do you and Don head to London?" Noah asks Hayley as they sit at the beach house. 

 

"We leave in a couple of days."

 

"You must be so excited for the international launch." 

 

"Yeah I am really excited in fact."
