is not much time. Tash tells Karl that she’s flying to Sydney tonight and then her connecting flight to Paris is the following morning. Tash starts to panic as she cannot close her suitcase due to over packing, Susan mentions that she’s
going to Paris - the fashion capital of the world, on that note Tash decides to remove one pair of jeans. Karl excuses himself to get some champagne for the celebration later. Susan comes over to help Tash close her suitcase and asks about her plans to stay

Paul asks again about the condolence book. Andrew tells Paul he did not get it, Tash refused to hand it over and she’s planning to leave Erinsborough and go overseas. Paul is pleased by this and says to Andrew ‘the sooner she goes, the
sooner I can tell you what to do’.

He tells her it’s in his bag. Sonya goes into Toadie's bag and finds some papers on ‘Regaining your memory through exercise and diet’. Sonya, obviously shocked, confronts Toadie, but he is concerned that Sonya may never remember or
recover and that really scares both him and Callum.

At Harold's, Kate and Sophie are talking about the music scholarship. Kate tells Sophie that Paul will ‘freak out’ when he finds out what she did.
Sophie tells Kate that the school is ‘perfect for her, it’s where she needs to be’. After further discussion about keeping in touch and Kate suggesting she gets a transfer nearer to Sophie, Sophie tells her not to do that as
she has Harry to keep an eye on her. Kate agrees to let Sophie go to Sydney. Sophie is happy, but wants Kate to come with her so she can tell Paul.
Back at number 22, Paul is outraged; he didn’t give his consent for Sophie to go to Sydney. Sophie tells Paul that it was the consent form he signed, not the excursion trip to Canberra.
Paul threatens to ring the school and retract the enrolment form, Kate steps in to calm the situation and Sophie pleads with Paul as she promises to study and get good grades. Andrew and Tash walk in holding hands,
and Paul remarks ‘So you’ve decided to chuck your life away and go globetrotting around the world?’ Andrew tells Paul he’s decided to go to Paris with Tash and wants him to buy his shares of Charlie’s. He tells Paul
it’s a good investment and he wants out, he can’t do it anymore. Paul tells them all to go, as he doesn't care what they do.
