‘Neighbours’ spoilers for Jan. 12: A frantic search for Tyler and Piper begins; someone else gears up to leave town

Another emotional day awaits Ramsay Street, as troubled relationships hound the upcoming episode of “Neighbours.” On Thursday, the families of Tyler Brennan (Travis Burns) and Piper Willis (Mavournee Hazel) are thrown into disarray when the pair packed up and eloped.

It would be interesting to see whether Tyler and Piper’s actions would convince Brad Willis (Kip Gamblin) and Terese Willis (Rebekah Elmaloglou) to approve the couple’s relationship, or drive them to stand their ground. Other “Neighbours” characters include Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis), Sonya Rebecchi (Eve Morey), Jarrod “Toadie” Rebecchi (Ryan Moloney), Stephanie Scully (Carla Bonner), Mark Brennan (Scott McGregor), Lauren Turner (Kate Kendall), Paige (Olympia Valance), Amy Williams (Zoe Cramond), Leo Tanaka (Tim Kano) and David Tanaka (Takaya Honda).

“Neighbours” also stars Jack Callahan (Andrew Morley), Gary Canning (Damien Richardson), Sheila Canning (Colette Mann), Aaron Brennan (Matt Wilson), Ben Ian Kirk (Felix Mallard) and Xanthe Canning (Lilly Van Der Meer).

“Neighbours” posted a sneak peek of Tuesday’s episode on its Facebook page. In the clip, Susan Kennedy (Jackie Woodburne) gets excited when Karl Kennedy (Alan Fletcher) says he has a present for her. However, she’s disappointed when she sees it’s a CD of songs meaningful for them, according to Karl. When he asks her if she like it, she pretends she does even though her expression says otherwise.

Digital Spy reports Susan plays a prank on Karl after learning about the fake necklace that he has bought for her. It turns out the tables have turned and she’s the one surprised. Today’s episode also focuses on Brad and Terese, who scramble to find Tyler and Piper after the couple ran off. Speaking of skipping town, Elly Conway (Jodi Anasta), is also determined to leave to make sure her secret won’t come back to haunt her. Her decision is made easier when she sees Ned (Ben Hall) with a new woman.

“Neighbours” recap

On Wednesday, Toadie told Sonya, Steph and Mark about Dee and the possibility that she’s alive. Toadie apologised to Sonya for not telling about it sooner. Sonya, on the other hand, assured him that she’ll support him no matter what he decides to do. The next day, Sonya looked through Toadie and Dee’s wedding photos and she couldn’t help but feel interested to get to know her.

Amy, Aaron, Leo and David shared an awkward time sharing drinks together. Thankfully, the ice was broken soon enough with their display of weird talents, and they found themselves enjoying. Amy found herself warming up again to Leo. However, when she found a bra in the Tanaka brothers’ bathroom, it confirmed her worst fears about Leo. She promptly excused herself and left. The next day when she dropped by Brad’s house, Amy saw an underwear that matched the bra she saw. She realised it was Paige’s and confronted Leo about it. Leo confirmed it was Paige’s but assured her that nothing happened.

Brad begged Elly to be a character witness for Ned to help him in his arson trial. Elly, however, worried about the court digging into her dark past. She consulted Mark, who guaranteed her that it won’t happen. Reassured, she approached Toadie and said she’s agreeing to become a character witness. She seemed to have made the difference – because of her testimony, he only got community service instead of jail time. Ned went over to see Elly, hoping they could pick up where they left off, but she told him it’s over between them.

Meanwhile, Terese, Brad and Ned walked in on Piper and Tyler snuggled together on the couch. Terese and Brad blew their top and he even threatened Tyler. Later, Tyler and Piper were seen putting their stuff in a car. Brad tried to stop them, but Piper determinedly drove off with Tyler.
