Eden is torn about releasing a victim impact statement critical of the boys who abducted Remi and her.
She is certain that ringleader Wes must pay for his actions, but believes Mickey, his sibling, should get off lighter.
Remi is furious at the idea, so Eden visits Levi to get comfort. When she gets to his hotel room, she nearly witnesses him and Mackenzie having an affair.
- Remi’s history haunts her
Eden feels empowered and appreciative to have her big brother back in her life, and Levi supports her decision.
Remi, who is furious that Eden is standing by her decision to assist Mickey, declares that he will make a statement of his own that will be in direct opposition to Eden’s.
Remi is experiencing extreme stress when all of a sudden he has a clear flashback to the exact moment of his accident.
- Remi has changed her mind.
Cash feels compelled to step in as Remi and Eden’s argument intensifies.
Reminding Remi that Eden has every right to share her tale, he stands up for his girlfriend.

After hearing Eden’s request, Remi decides he can’t and won’t go in the way of her.

- Cash is making a move.
When Cash learns information about the donation’s source from an unknown caller, it’s a breakthrough.
Afterwards, Cash tells John and Roo that his investigation has come to a standstill and that they should let it go.
Immediately realising that he is lying, the cunning couple swears to find out what Cash is hiding from them.
