After a close brush with death at the building site and the continuing tension with his dad Gary, Kyle makes a decision about the future...
Kyle Canning is rushed to hospital after plunging to the ground following the scaffolding collapse at the building site.
Much to the relief of his dad, Gary, his gran Sheila and ex-girlfriend Amy Williams, handyman Kyle only has a concussion and some bruising and will survive. Phew!
But the accident fires-up the tension between Kyle and his dad, since it was Gary's job to make sure the scaffolding was properly set-up.
With father and son's rivalry also continuing over Amy Williams, who once dated Kyle but is now engaged to Gary, Kyle reaches a surprise decision about the future. Once the tram project is complete, he is going to leave Erinsborough!

But how will Andrea react when she accidentally discovers Dipi's secret dossier on Karen and realises there's still a chance Karen/Dee could return and ruin her plans?
