This week on Home and Away in Australia, Remi pushes himself too far after his breakup with Bree, while Eden nearly exposes Levi’s affair.
It’s questionable as to whether Remi (Adam Rowland) has become his own worst enemy in recent weeks, as he continues to recover from being knocked off his bike.
Following intensive surgery, Remi kept his recovery struggles a secret from girlfriend Bree (Juliet Godwin), knowing that she had her own issues to deal with. Bree had not left Remi’s side since his admittance into Northern Districts Hospital, and was torn when her mother rang to see Bree’s dad had been in involved in an accident at work and was on life support.
After Bree was persuaded to go and be with her father during what turned out to be his final days of life, Kirby (Angelina Thomson) eventually told Remi what was happening. Kirby assured Bree that everything would be alright.
Not wishing for Bree to worry and cut her visit home short, Remi didn’t let on that he had been discharged, and refused to let Kirby and Eden (Stephanie Panozzo) call her when he began writhing in pain and vomiting on the bathroom floor.
Fortunately, Eden could rely on her brother Levi, a cardiothoracic surgeon played by Tristan Gorey.
After Bree returned, Justin (James Stewart) and Kirby caught Remi off guard by fixing the bike, which put him in an embarrassing position. Remi was informed by Bree that she was adamant about his not going back on the bike because those things are death traps.
Remi, though still very delicate, was unfazed and got back on the bike and gave it a lot of gas. After catching him off guard, Bree issued a last warning: either she or the bike.
After everything had blown over, Remi requested Justin to store the bike for a while, hoping to use that time to cajole Bree into changing her mind. At first, he informed Bree that he had returned the bike to its owner, Mercedes (Amali Golden). However, he told Bree the truth and said he wouldn’t be selling the bike after Eden reminded him that lying wasn’t the best course of action.
As a result, Bree ended their relationship, and it didn’t take long for Remi to get back on the bike and enjoy a ride around the area, hoping to hide some of the mental pain he’s simultaneously going through.
“Remi is in a tough spot,” Adam Rowland told TV Week. “He can’t see a way forward without the love of his life. He also faces an uphill battle with his recovery. He’s under a lot of pressure.”
This week, having only just started his physical rehab, Remi now has to call on Eden to take him to the sessions.
As TV Week reports, Eden finds it difficult to watch Remi during the session, with his lack of patience and snide remarks causing some tension.
If riding his bike wasn’t already putting a strain on his recovery, a fed up Remi managed to overexert himself, collapsing on the floor in agony. It’s a difficult drive home, but when Eden suggests they head back to the hospital, Remi once again refuses.
Eden again tries her brother, but isn’t able to get hold of him. In desperation, she calls his wife Imogen (Georgia Blizzard), but is confused when Imogen replies that she thought Levi was actually with her.
Little do either of them know, which is a miracle in itself given how indiscreet they’ve been, that Levi has been having an affair with his former patient Mackenzie (Emily Weir), telling Imogen that he’s been spending time with his sister.
Naturally this sparks Eden’s curiosity as to what her big brother has been getting up to in recent weeks, and Imogen is bound to have her own questions—are Levi and Mac about to get exposed?
First things first Eden has to sort out Remi who is clearly struggling, but with his continued refusal to go to hospital it’s an uphill battle. Will Eden be able to get through to a stubborn Remi?
