Back to the Bay reports that Wednesday’s episode also centres on Phoebe, who is surprised to see her friend Donna (Melissa Bonne). In Seven Network’s sneak peek of the March 29 episode, the two catch up before Donna questions Phoebe’s decisions in life. “You’re supposed to be a star, not some mechanic’s housewife,” Donna says.

Across town, John and Marilyn struggle to have a good rapport with their defence lawyer. The trailer also shows John running into Morag Bellingham (Cornelia Frances), who asks him if he needs her help.

“Home and Away” recap

In the previous episode, Hunter and Olivia dealt with the latest blow that hit them – being robbed of their few possessions. Irene asked Olivia to move back in with her and she’s even willing to take in Hunter as well. Later, they decide to take up on Irene’s offer and live with her.

Ash became more determined to get custody of baby Luc, citing Irene’s past alcohol addiction. Later, the two got into an argument about who should take care of the baby and VJ also joined in the fray. Ash walked out, threatening to step in if push comes to shove so he can raise Luc. Later, Patrick Stanwood (Luke McKenzie) talked some sense to Ash and made him realise that VJ is a good father to the baby. Ash met with Irene and VJ and told them that he’s not fighting for custody. However, he said he wants to be involved and the two shouldn’t make any decisions without consulting him first.

Meanwhile, Leah continued with her retreat and refused to communicate with Zac. She replied to his email, ordering him to stay away from her. When Roo arrived, Zac used her phone to call Leah but the minute he spoke, she hung up. He opened up to Roo but she refused to be involved in the couple’s fight.
