Kirby continues to battle Contact Agency about using a doctored photo of her without her permission, and the Diner Ladies rally around her. This type of ethical malpractice is rife on social media, and it’s being relayed directly to the youth. They collectively brainstorm ways to move forward, and when Kirby proposes to directly confront the agency to hold them accountable, the ladies agree to help her cause.
Eden remains at Tim’s hospital bedside, waiting for an update. Bree implores her to get some rest, and perhaps lean on Remi for support. Eden rails though – she can’t forgive Remi for his damning statement against Cash. Cash, meanwhile, easily forgives Remi when he approaches with an apology – he understands Remi’s actions, and all he asks now is that he keep Eden safe. Eden finally does agree to talk to him, and the old friends manage to repair, though Remi still doesn’t stand down on the fact that Cash has been treating Eden poorly. He tells Eden that he found them a house in the city, and she should consider moving there with him. Eden tells him she needs to stay in the Bay, close to Cash. Remi accepts defeat on the warehouse move and apologises to Bree for pushing his agenda so hard. She accepts the apology and comforts him – she’d follow him to the end of the earth if she had to. For now, though, they’re staying in the Bay.
Rose and Gary are hard at work investigating all angles of the case against Cash, and Townsend tells Gary his son’s conviction is a question of “when” rather than “if”. While Cash, still on bail, checks in at the station, Townsend pushes him to confess before the trial. Gary steps in, still unable to understand why Cash would confess to something he didn’t do. Gary and Cash have a moment alone later where he finally gets through to him. Cash confesses that he took the fall for Nerida so that she’d stay away from Eden and Tim. Gary tells Rose, and they are stumped as to how to turn Cash around when he’s intent on taking the fall for the real culprit. When Eden finally leaves Tim’s bedside to go and see Cash, their feelings for each other are as strong as ever and before too long, they’re sharing a charged kiss, just as at the hospital, Tim is waking from his coma…
