Xander Delaney (Luke Van Os) still isn't on board with his half-sister Rose's (Kirsty Marillier) decision to track down her biological dad, Samuel (Bert La Bonte).

He feels like it is a betrayal to their mum, Yvette.

Rose continues to seek emotional support about the situation from her boyfriend, Mali Hudson (Kyle Shilling).

However, she is thrown when Samuel unexpectedly makes an appearance in Summer Bay.

She would have preferred a warning!

Nevertheless, Rose invites Samuel to stick around and they spend the afternoon together.

However, when Samuel suggests staying on a bit longer in the Bay, it's all too much for Rose.

Is she really ready for some kind of regular relationship with her dad after all these years?
