After David finds Krista missing and learns that Holly told her about Conrad, he goes into action mode and organises a search party. He finds her, but then learns that she’s scored more drugs and is considering using. It’s touch and go, but David manages to turn Krista around by opening up to her about his medical manslaughter experience, and how that changed the direction of his life. Krista returns to the hotel with David, where she gets rid of her drugs and asks David to stay overnight, to ensure she doesn’t slip up again. When David presents options of a short stay rehab to help her recover and hiring a sober companion once she’s discharged, this leads to Krista offering David a job as her sober companion. David, who has thrived in this caring role, is honoured by the offer. And knowing how happy it would make Aaron, Jane and Nicolette, he decides to accept the position. They’re moving back to Erinsborough.

Haz turns to Mackenzie for advice, and even though it hurts Mackenzie to do so, she encourages Haz to mend the rift, and the couple are consequently reunited.
