Mali continues to regret his lie to Theo and fears that it’s only a matter of time before he’s caught out. The inevitable happens when Theo finds out that Tim is Eden’s ex-counsellor rather than her boyfriend.

Theo confides in Justin and Leah about Mali lying to him, and decides to confront his friend about it. Mali pretends that he only told the lie to protect Abigail, which Theo accepts.

Later, a tearful Abigail asks Theo if they can go for a drive together.

Meanwhile, Kirby feels awkward when Cash quizzes her about Tim’s intentions with Eden. This leads to Abigail finding out that Tim and Eden are seeing each other. Cash is also unhappy that a qualified counsellor would sleep with their client’s sister.

The next day, Cash deliberately pulls Tim’s car over while Eden is in the passenger seat. Eden is outraged by Cash’s unprofessional behaviour and tells Tim that the meddling policeman is her ex. She then accuses Cash of harassment.

Cash refuses to let this go and Rose later catches him using the police database to look up Tim’s history. She reprimands him for breaking the rules at work.
