Here’s our full guide to 13 big moments coming up. You can also explore the stories in more detail with our collection of 12 spoiler pictures from next week.
1. Terese hits the bottle again
Terese’s tough times continue as she takes a phone call from a homesick Nell. She’s also knocked for six when Susan admits that she accidentally told Paul about Terese still having feelings for him.
When it all gets too much, Terese steals a bottle of wine that was left as a gift at Eirini Rising and takes it home with her. In a moment that’s clearly worrying after Terese’s history of alcohol abuse, she starts drinking again.
2. Paul repeats his promises to stay away
Paul speaks to Leo about the revelation that Terese has feelings for him again. He confirms that he still plans to keep his distance from his ex-wife for everyone’s sake.
Terese also assures Susan that everything is fine, but she hides the fact that she has been drinking again.
3. Cara’s baby dream is revealed
JJ stumbles across the letter that Cara recently wrote to herself on her 40th birthday, which mentions that she’d love to have another baby. He passes this on to Remi, who’s shocked as it’s not something they’ve discussed before.
When Remi raises this, Cara dismisses the mention in the letter as a dream scenario that she’s not taking seriously. Remi offers to discuss it further, but it’s clear that she’s hesitant about it.
4. Nell and JJ are busted by Felix
Nell surprises JJ with an unexpected return to Erinsborough. JJ skips school to spend time with his girlfriend, but Felix catches them together and threatens to tell Cara and Remi.
JJ calls out Felix for being hypocritical with his disapproval, but Felix points out that he’s merely trying to stop his son from repeating his own mistakes. The pair seem to reach a compromise, so could this be the start of them bonding again?
5. Nell makes a worrying discovery
Terese starts to suffer the effects of alcohol withdrawal and her friends notice that she seems unwell. Needing to avoid any scrutiny, Terese takes the day off work and shuts herself away in the house.
Terese is taken by surprise when Nell lets herself inside with a spare key and catches her with alcohol. Will Nell tell anyone what she’s seen?
6. Wendy struggles to make progress with Andrew
Wendy is dismayed to see Andrew’s life falling apart, as he’s now suspended from work due to his recent angry outbursts. She tries to talk things through, but Andrew admits that he can’t move on from her recent secrets and lies over Quinn.
As it dawns on Wendy that her marriage problems are very serious, she insists on booking a counselling session for her and Andrew. Although Andrew agrees to attend, their future is looking far from certain.
7. Andrew makes another destructive move
Wendy speaks candidly in her counselling session with Andrew, but he’s more reluctant to speak honestly about their recent problems.
Later, Andrew gets his hands on Quinn’s number and tries to set up a meeting, wanting to sternly question him about whatever happened between him and Wendy. Andrew is wrong-footed when Wendy turns up for the meeting instead and she’s furious with him for going behind her back.
8. It’s make or break for Wendy and Andrew
Andrew doubles down on his stance by taking Wendy’s phone to read her messages. However, he soon realises that he’s behaving erratically and tries to apologise.
Andrew hopes for a chance to make things right when Wendy invites her to join him at an Ancient Chinese Fashion exhibition in the city. Will the couple finally work things out?
9. Holly reaches a turning point
Holly continues to snub Felix’s attempts to help her tackle her PTSD. Sadly, she’s soon forced to face reality when she’s startled by Susan and accidentally swings round and injures her.
As Holly privately accepts that she has a problem, she decides to finally read the self-help book that Felix gave her as a gift.
10. Krista’s show faces opposition
Krista and her team continue to make plans for the Boylesque event at Lassiters, but there’s a setback when Eirini Rising residents Moira and Hilary launch a campaign to have it cancelled on moral grounds.
Gino and Leo reassure Krista that Moira and Hilary’s complains are out of sync with most of the community. Paul fears otherwise and warns Krista of the serious consequences if her event sparks a bigger backlash and adversely affects the business.
11. Naked Aaron risks fuelling the fire
Aaron’s preparation for Boylesque sees him test out his tear-away pants ahead of the big night. However, when he’s called to an emergency at work, he forgets what he’s wearing and rushes off.
Aaron’s pants rip in the middle of the Lassiters complex, leaving him naked from the waist down. This leaves Hilary outraged as she makes an official complaint to the police and threatens to set up a picket outside Boylesque.
12. Byron and Nicolette accept Victor’s money
Byron and Nicolette finally inform Victor that they intend to accept his offer of $100,000 to bring down their debts. They make it clear that this is purely a financial decision and they still can’t forgive him for his recent mistakes.
Victor reveals that he’s looking into buying a business near Melbourne, leaving the door open for a reconciliation if Byron and Nicolette ever change their minds.
Later, Melanie discovers that Victor is volunteering at the hospital in a bid to be a better person. She wants to share this revelation with Nicolette and Byron so they stop treating Victor so harshly, but he swears her to secrecy.
There’s also a growing chemistry between Melanie and Victor as they spend time together “just as friends”. How long will it take until they act on it?
13. Victor messes up again
Jane is outraged when she discovers that the buyer of Mike’s motorbike has put it back up for sale for a higher amount. She finds out that the culprit is Victor and accuses him of more deceptive behaviour.
Victor explains that he bought the bike anonymously to help speed up the painful process of Jane selling her last reminder of Mike.
Later, Melanie urges Jane to hear Victor out and the former couple finally reach a truce. Although Victor expresses his fear that he’s to blame for Jane and Mike’s break-up, Jane admits that his intervention did her a favour in the long-run as it forced her to face reality.
