Karl boasted about his relationship with Jenny to Max, but acted completely different around Susan, leaving Izzy to bounce back to her bitchy best and rub Susan’s face in it. Leaving Karl red faced, especially after Susan told him that if they were going to move on in their lives, they need to stop worrying about the other person’s reaction. Izzy begged Max & Steph to let her babysit Charlie, and after much convincing from Max, Steph eventually relented. As Izzy relished spending time on her own with Charlie, Robert lurked in the background, somehow getting from the stairwell to the laundry room without Izzy noticing, and as Izzy fell asleep, he turned the heating back on without igniting it, leaving the house filling with gas… As Lyn called by to see Paul, she smelt gas, looking in the window and noticing Izzy & Charlie on the sofa; she raced around the back and found a way in. As she rescued Charlie and was running out the front door, Paul and “Cameron” returned, and as the latter ran in to get Izzy, he ‘realised’ that the heating was still on. After racing to the hospital, Max & Steph told Izzy that she had lost her chance with Charlie, leading Paul to question why she always sabotages her own happiness and Izzy to confess to Paul that she couldn’t have children. There was one positive out of the whole situation as, after Lyn rescued Charlie, Steph made up with her mum.

The Kinski kids began to worry about Susan and wondered what they could do to make her feel better, and came up with an act to get Susan to ask them to move in. Despite Susan seeing straight through it, she was delighted when the three moved into number 28, telling Katya that her father would be proud of her thoughtfulness. As Susan told Katya to take advantage of their new living arrangement and enjoy life with “Cameron”, Robert began to worry that he was becoming too distracted by Katya, and on a visit to see the real Cameron in hospital, he told his comatose twin that he would “miss her.” Is Katya about to meet her maker?

Janae began to feel jealous of the extra attention Bree was receiving, but soon found out what had been going on when she mistakenly opened a letter for her mum, addressed ‘J. Timmins’ and discovered that Bree wasn’t really her sister. After confronting Janelle & Kim about her discovery, she told them to tell Bree, or she will, leaving Kim & Janelle struggling to tell Bree the truth. After Jenny convinced Karl to exorcise Izzy from his life, and apartment, he asked her to move in with him. However, when Susan called round to ask Karl to return to work as school counsellor and heard the news, Jenny seemed not to notice Susan’s awkwardly sanguine reaction to the news, Karl seemed to wonder if there was something more behind his ex-wife’s quick exit. As Bree remained down to earth, despite her newfound fame, Zeke began to feel inadequate for such a popular novelist.

After making up with Sky, Dylan told her that she shouldn’t let his feelings about J.P. affect her work, and should rejoin his classes, and go to his art exhibit. Sky wasn’t the only Mangel having relationship trouble this week, as Joe Mangel’s constant excuses for not visiting pushed Lyn closer to Paul. Boyd struggled to move on from Janae, but blamed his jealousy on Janae, but as they went their separate ways to functions with Sasha and Ned, they struggled to hide their true feelings when a memory of their past happiness reminded them of what they were missing. Lou admitted to Mishka that he didn’t sell the General Store, Paul stole it from him in a hostile takeover and after hearing this, she convinced him that he should fight to get his store back.

Finally this week, Stingray struggled with his attraction to Rachel, especially when they went around to number 24 to use the pool, Lyn pushed Steph into letting Paul market her baby utility belt idea, Boyd won a Rural Medical placement and Karl & Ned were a surprise hit at Scarlet Bar’s Open Mic Night.
