Neighbours spoilers: Chloe Brennan gets arrested for theft!
Chloe hits the booze to drown her sorrows after her shock health diagnosis. Then she gets arrested by Mishti for stealing the Ramsay Street signpost!
Chloe is still spinning out after the shock news she has Huntington's disease, an incurable brain disorder.
But she can't bring herself to tell her brothers Mark and Aaron what's going on, so instead she decides to hit the town with Amy and another friend Danielle and booze her troubles away. As the girls go wild, Chloe and Danielle stumble upon the idea to steal the Ramsay Street signpost!
But before they can make the perfect getaway, with the stolen signpost stashed in the boot of their car, police sirens sound. When Danielle runs off, Chloe is left to face the music and finds herself arrested by policewoman Mishti. How humiliating!
Meanwhile, Terese is all mixed-up after discovering the truth about Leo's feelings for her. Realising they could be getting too close for comfort, Terese decides to quit her role as Leo's business mentor at Lassiter's, much to the annoyance of Leo's dad Paul.
And Aaron unexpectedly finds himself with a new business partner when Mishti sells her share of the gym to Paul. Paul assures his future son-in-law he is just going to be a silent partner until the business is running smoothly again. But where there's a business opportunity, when has "money bags" Paul Robinson been anything but silent!
