Tane’s attempt to kiss Harper caught her completely off guard. Despite Tane being one of her only friends in the Bay, she feels it’s necessary to ask for space. Dana finds the situation amusing and shows no sympathy for her sister being kissed by “the hot personal trainer”. However, Harper only sees the damage this move did to their friendship and has no interest in being another rebound for Tane.
Tane confides in Cash the shame he feels that the fallout of his failed marriage may have permanently damaged his closeness with Harper. He isn’t sure how to fix it, so for now at least, he apologises. He passes her the details for a new personal trainer, and he agrees it’s time for some space.
Meanwhile, Remi has regained consciousness but is writhing in pain. Bree is convinced he should still be in ICU, particularly as they’re unable to give him any more medication to manage it.
Levi is called back in to examine him but believes the level of pain he is feeling is normal considering the intense surgery. This leads Bree and Eden to question Levi’s choice to undertake such a horrific operation on Remi.
While Bree firmly believes Levi has made the wrong decision, Eden’s position is swayed by Levi’s explanation. He is firm that if he hadn’t gone through with it, Remi would not have lived. Eden and Levi share some lunch, but Bree remains hovering over Remi’s hospital bed. She obsesses over every surface – she will not allow his condition to be worsened by an infection.
Meanwhile, Marilyn received a call from Leah, who is leaving the clinic and returning to Summer Bay but doesn’t want Justin to know. In fact, she doesn’t even want to return to her own home yet and has instead asked to come stay with Marilyn at Alf’s place.
Marilyn swears Alf to silence, but he’s conflicted at keeping such heavy news from his mate. When he runs into Justin and Theo at the Surf Club, Alf shares the news of Leah’s plans, but insists they’re going to have to keep their distance as it’s what Leah needs.
