Lassiter's Complex/Erinsborough Police Station: Matt escorts Lucas to the police station and urges him to tell the detective what he had already
told Matt. Matt explains to the detective how he and Lucas know each other and indicates the money Lucas lost to Robbo in a card game. Lucas explains that he was heading to the police station anyway, and is quickly escorted into an
interview room when he explains that he knows who killed Robbo, and that it wasn't Toadie. Matt is sent away to deal with the radio station site.
Erinsborough Police Station: In the interview room, Lucas confirms that he doesn't wish to have a lawyer present and that he understands the
rights read to him. Lucas explains he knew Robbo through playing illegal card games and that he is a gambling addict. He adds that he lost a lot of money on the night of the accident and that he had no choice but to write an
"I owe you". Lucas recalls meeting a man on the night who told him that the cards were marked. Lucas adds that the man followed him to where Robbo was; the man told him to go home when Lucas went to attack Robbo, realising that
the "I owe you" still stood. Lucas explains that he went to the garage to sleep, but the man arrived and gave him money after "catching up" with Robbo. Admitting that he didn't say anything because he didn't want to worry Vanessa,
Lucas tells the detective that he doesn't know anything else.
 
Harold's Store: Georgia and Kyle are having a coffee whilst Georgia is trying to work out why Lucas didn't say anything about what happened.
She is incredulous that Kyle did not say anything, as it would have helped clear Toadie's name. Kyle tries to explain why he couldn't, but Georgia leaves, making it clear how much stress it has put her family through.
No 30: Callum and Josie are trying to win a games quest; Toadie is busy working. Toadie and Josie tease Callum about selecting the wrong coloured key in the game they are playing. from the kitchen, Sonya announces she is thinking of preparing vegetable moussaka for dinner. Toadie says how much he likes Japanese food!
Sonya invites Josie for dinner, and Josie heads off to ask permission. The phone rings, and Toadie answers - it is Georgia.
Erinsborough Police Station: Lucas is still being questioned, to the disbelief of the detective.
 
No 30: Sonya and Toadie have heard from Georgia that Lucas is at the station: they cannot believe why Lucas didn't tell them what was going on.
Erinsborough Police Station: The questioning continues, Lucas shifting uncomfortably as he is asked whether Toadie really is a friend of his.
No 30: Toadie tells Georgia he can't believe what is happening. Sonya can't believe that Lucas would do what Georgia has said, and dials his number.
Erinsborough Police Station: Lucas is told to turn his phone off when it rings in the interview room. The detective asks if Lucas and Toadie are in
it together. Lucas denies that is the case and is told he can go. Before he does, he is warned that he should not make any travel plans and that the garage will need to be searched.
No 30: Sonya is worried, and tells Georgia and Toadie that Lucas is not answering his phone.
Lucas and Vanessa's Apartment: Vanessa is in full wedding planning mode when Lucas arrives back at the apartment. She sees that Lucas is worried
and Lucas says he wants to remember the moment before Vanessa hates him. Concerned, Vanessa gets up from the floor and tells Lucas he is scaring her. Lucas worriedly explains to Vanessa that he has something to tell her.
 
Lucas and Vanessa's Apartment: A little later, Vanessa asks Lucas how long he has been gambling; Lucas says a few weeks and that he has lost several
thousand. He tries to justify the gambling by explaining that they needed the money to cover hospital bills, but Vanessa snaps back that he cannot blame her for the gambling. Lucas quickly replies that he isn't, but that he just wanted
to save stressing Vanessa. Vanessa yells that it didn't work, because she is stressed and that she wants him out of her sight. Reluctantly, Lucas heads to the front door. As he opens it, Sonya walks in asking Lucas if what she heard is
true. Lucas apologises and walks out, leaving Vanessa to cry in Sonya's arms.
No 30: Josie knocks on the front door and Callum invites her in. Josie sadly explains that she can't and that she isn't able to come over at all. She apologises and says goodbye before heading off. Callum heads in to the kitchen and tells Toadie
that Josie doesn't want to hang out with him any more. Callum assumes Bailey has said something and storms off to find him.
No 32 - Mason and Bailey's Bedroom: Bailey is still trying to hack into Robbo's computer. Callum bursts in, demanding to know what Bailey said to
Josie to put her off. Bailey denies even seeing Josie and says he would never do anything to hurt Callum after what happened with Rani. Bailey tries to comfort Callum, telling him that it is Josie's loss. Bailey asks Callum what the
deal is with Josie, but Callum can only reply that he wished he knew.
Lucas and Vanessa's Apartment: Sonya is comforting Vanessa, explaining how those with addictions are always fighting the urge to relapse,
assuming that by doing so the addicts will feel better. She adds that by not talking about issues, addicts believe they are in control of the situation and that the deeper it goes, the more ashamed they are. Sonya explains that
Lucas has taken a big step by telling Vanessa what happened.
Fitzgerald Motors: Lucas is sitting at his desk, reflecting on what he has done.
 
Radio Station: Karl arrives to see Susan standing in the midst of officers clearing the building. Karl asks if they should be there as it might still
be a crime scene, but Susan reassures him that she was told the police had all the things from there that they needed. Matt asks if the locksmith has been and Susan says that everything is under control: there will be an alarm fitted later
and that the naughty students at school can clean it out, as the school still owns it. Karl gets out his phone so he cans snap some photos of the station to send to Zeke. Susan explains to att that if she had the money she would reopen it!
No 30: Lucas and Toadie arrive. Lucas thanks Toadie for the chance to explain himself. Toadie tells Lucas he has some questions that need answering.
Lucas responds to Toadie's questions that, he didn't see Toadie on the night of the accident and that Robbo didn't mention him at all. Lucas explains what happened, but Toadie tells him his story is full of holes. Lucas apologises,
but Toadie is unforgiving and points him towards the door.
Lucas and Vanessa's Apartment: Sonya is wiping up when Lucas arrives home. He asks where Vanessa is and Sonya says that, although it took a while,
Vanessa is asleep. Sonya highlights how devastated Vanessa is and asks Lucas what happened for him to gamble again. Lucas sadly says he thought he could do it once and walk away, but Sonya says that they had spoken about it and knew
that it isn't possible to do that as an addict. Sonya sadly says that she can forgive the gambling, but that she can't forgive Lucas letting Toadie believe. He was guilty of running down Robbo. She marches out of the apartment, adding
that she doesn't know if she can ever forgive Lucas for what he has done. After Sonya has gone, Lucas breaks down in tears.
 
Charlie's: Paul is behind the bar when Mason comes in. Paul tells him to keep his voice down when he asks about the man Paul hired to take care of
Robbo, and directs him towards a table away from everyone else. Mason asks Paul if there was anything to do with illegal card games, because the man seen there could have been the same man hired by Paul. Paul reminds Mason that the
whole mess started with him, because he wanted his sister's ex-boyfriend dealt with. Paul confesses he asked Marty to teach Robbo a lesson, and that if the police catch him, he might say that he was following orders, therefore
implicating both Paul and Mason in the crime.
