But despite being back home with her fiance, Tane Parata (Ethan Browne), and brother Cash Newman (Nicholas Cartwright), Felicity can't help but blame herself for the terrible turn of events that have left her maid-of-honour, Eden Fowler (Stephanie Panozzo), in a coma...
However, Felicity remains unaware of the TERRIBLE TRUTH...
That the truck was sabotaged by the biker gang, who were targetting Cash!
Wanting Felicity to focus on her recovery, both Cash and Tane decide to keep the truth from her.
But still haunted by terrible memories of the car collision and petrol station explosion, Felicity starts to self-medicate with alcohol...
Ziggy Astoni (Sophie Dillman) and her boyfriend, Dean Thompson (Patrick O'Connor), wonder if they are about to become parents.
Ziggy is convinced she has gone into labour and is breathing through the contractions.
Having failed with the birthing class and not done enough research, Ziggy and Dean are in a terrible panic.
However, when they arrive at Northern District Hospital, the couple are confused when Ziggy's contractions suddenly STOP!
Was it a FALSE alarm?
