Home and Away airs on 5STAR at 6:30pm
Cash reports back to Eden as his search for Tane continues. He and Jo are canvassing every beach near Exmouth. After they each receive multiple missed calls from David, they figure he’s worked out what they’re up to and is on their tail, which gives them further impetus to find Tane fast. During their search, Cash sees Brax with his shirt off returning from a surf. Cash recognises the ‘Blood and Sand’ tattoo, and so he and Jo jump in the car and tail him. When Brax turns into his driveway off a long windy red dirt road, Cash plants himself outside of the driveway, cautious of what the River Boy may have in store for them…
Meanwhile, Ricky chastises Tane for giving away their whereabouts as it could put her entire family in jeopardy. Tane denies ever telling anyone their location, but from Ricky’s description of the people looking for him in town, he realises that it’s unmistakably Cash. The news that it’s a friend momentarily puts Ricky at ease, but Tane tells her that he’s a cop, and so she tells him to start packing his things. Brax (Cash on his tail unbeknownst to him) returns home and Ricky immediately catches him up that Cash was looking for Tane in town. Brax shifts gears and tells Tane he’s gone – the best he can do for him is drop him at the airport. They hop into the car and begin to head out, only to be ambushed by Cash and Jo, still waiting for them at the entrance to their driveway.
They eye each other from their respective vehicles. Tane tells Brax he’ll take care of Cash. Tane gets out of the car, and Cash pops him with a vicious jab to the face, drawing blood. They get into a scuffle, then Brax breaks them up, forcing them to hash it out with words. Jo takes Tane aside and she chastises him for leaving everything behind, she expresses that she can’t envision a life without him, and this sobers him to the ramifications of his actions. Meanwhile, Brax pressures Cash to walk away from this situation if he’s a friend to Tane like he says he is. Cash refuses to and Brax questions whether he has any authority as he’s working outside of his jurisdiction. Cash resorts to threats that he’ll call the local authorities on them if they don’t cooperate. Brax tells Ricky to go and get Casey and be ready to go in case Cash gives their whereabouts to the police. Jo and Cash eventually convince Tane to come with them back to the Bay, and he agrees with the caveat that they don’t give away Brax’s location to the police. Cash says he can’t make any promises because he’s acting of his own accord.
David catches Eden speaking on the phone and suspects she knows the whereabouts of her husband. He accosts her at Salt while she’s at work, but she’s quick to avoid any conversations with David for fear of revealing Cash’s whereabouts. Later at Salt, David presses her again, and she continues to deny any knowledge of his whereabouts. David attempts to put a trace on Newman’s phone, but because he’s on leave, David isn’t granted a permit for the warrant. Backed into a corner, trying to find his daughter, David arrests an uncooperative Eden for aiding and abetting a criminal.
