Coming up next week on Home and Away in the UK, Cash is forced to arrest his own sister, while Dean taking matters into his own hands proves too much for Ziggy.
As he risks being charged with PK’s death, Dean Thompson (Patrick O’Connor) is compelled to take desperate measures to defend his identity this week (Ryan Johnson).
Two weeks ago, when PK’s body was discovered on the beach, all eyes were on Dean because he was last seen arguing with PK after PK threatened Dean’s kid Jai (River Jarvis).
We later saw that Dean had enlisted River Boys Nugget (Yure Covich) and Red (Luke Chiswell) to track PK down, and our last sighting of the dodgy businessman was him tied up in the boot of their car.
When Dean subsequently returned home with bloodied knuckles and wouldn’t discuss what had happened other than to say he’d “resolved” it, Ziggy (Sophie Dillman) became concerned.
It didn’t take long for word of Dean and PK’s altercation to reach the police, and when they learned that Dean and Ziggy had given bogus justifications, they promptly issued a search warrant. which revealed a blood-stained wrench in Ziggy’s car’s trunk!
It wasn’t looking good for Dean, but PK’s associate Nathan (Ryan Panizza), who had earlier that day hidden the wrench in the car, had actually set him up.
This week, Dean keeps Ziggy in the dark while he assigns Nugget and Red to find Nathan since he believes he must be the culprit.
Eventually, at Bella’s departure party, Dean receives a call from Nugget, and the following day he vanishes, leaving only a letter for Ziggy urging her not to worry.
Eventually, Ziggy gets through to Dean as he and Nugget enter a dilapidated home, telling her that he is doing this to save his own skin because if he doesn’t, he would be sent back to prison.
Inside, Red has Nathan tied up to a chair.
Nathan claims ignorance but is evasive, and Dean is not persuaded. Nathan maintains that during the dispute Dean saw between them, PK was trying to persuade Nathan to stop manipulating Mackenzie (Emily Weir), just as he had done to him. Nathan acknowledges that PK was making his life miserable.
Back at the farmhouse, Ziggy welcomes Cash (Nicholas Cartwright) and a number of other cops inside. Now that the forensics on the wrench have returned with the confirmation that the blood was PK’s, a warrant for Dean’s arrest has been issued.
There is a huge ruckus before Nathan sprints out of the house as Dean leaves the house to try to reassure a terrified Ziggy on the phone. after slamming a bottle over Nugget’s head.
Dean and the boys give chase as Nathan runs for his life, ducking into a paddock full of scrapped trucks.
It doesn’t take too long for Dean to sniff Nathan out, and dragging Nathan back inside, he warns him that none of them are leaving until the truth is revealed…
When Dean subsequently walks into the police station holding Nathan by the neck and informing Cash that he has finished his job for him, Cash is astounded.
When Dean commands Nathan to talk, he confesses to killing PK and accusing Dean of doing it.
Dean is happy as he rushes back to the farmhouse, expecting Ziggy to be over the moon now that his nightmare is finally over. However, he discovers her packing a bag instead.
Ziggy reveals that she is leaving for a few days because she is tired of Dean’s secrecy and his reliance on the River Boys every time he has problems, especially since he now has to worry about her and Jai.
She sobs, “I love you too much to wait here and wait for the day that you don’t come home.”
Has Dean lost Ziggy in his quest for justice?
While Dean is relieved by Nathan’s admission, it also creates problems for other neighbors when Salt’s illegal poker sessions are ultimately made public.
When Mac is mentioned as the person Nathan was trying to shield from PK’s manipulation, Nathan acknowledges that it was Mac and that they had met at one of the poker nights. When Felicity (Jacqui Purvis) is identified as the person in charge of them, Cash’s heart breaks.
When Cash and another police knock on the door of the Parata home, Tane (Ethan Browne) and Flick have just ended their usual “bedroom exercise session.”
As Cash says she’s been arrested and Flick initially believes he’s playing a practical joke on her, she quickly realizes he’s serious when he details the charge of organizing unlawful gambling.
Flick is left with little choice but to protest as Tane quickly pursues Cash as he handcuffs and drags his sister to the police station.
Cash shows Flick Nathan’s statement, and explains that he’s seen phone records laying bare the details of the VIP evenings.
Cash is compelled to end the interview since Flick won’t comply. Off-the-record, Cash expresses his desire to assist Flick because the charge against her could result in a prison sentence. Flick just requests to talk with an attorney as he inquires about whether it had anything to do with Mac’s debt.
Cash explains after being eventually freed into Tane’s arms that she has been accused of organizing unlawful gambling. Tane tries to convince Flick that she shouldn’t be held responsible for this, but she responds that it’s already too late.
But as Cash proceeds to take Flick’s mugshot, they’re interrupted by the arrival of Mac…
Will Mac fall on her sword to save Flick?
