Neve (Sophie Bloom) returns to the Pier Apartment this week and acknowledges she needs to confront her acute PTSD symptoms. Logan (Harley Bonner) is happy with the breakthrough, but things aren’t looking good when he confides in a friend to find out what Neve’s alternatives are. Will Neve do the right thing or try to flee once more when she finds out?
Meanwhile, Theo (Matt Edwards) is concerned to learn that his community service paperwork has been delivered to his parents’ address. He calls his mother right away, asking her to hide the letter from his father. Overhearing the call, John (Shane Withington) asks Theo: what’s the big deal with Dimitri knowing about his conviction? Theo then carefully confesses a secret, which horrifies John.
Ari (Rob Kipa-Williams), on the other hand, is transported to the hospital with terrible stomach pains. Logan brings him in for appendix surgery, and the Paratas are relieved to learn that they will be able to spend more time with him while he heals than they had anticipated. When Logan completes the operation, however, he receives news that twists everyone’s world on its head…
Here’s what’s on Home and Away this week, starting Monday, April 4th.

Ryder recently decided to leave because he no longer wanted to be around Roo and Alf’s arguing. In the aftermath of the Buried Alive hoax, Roo reaches out to him, concerned about his mental health.

Ryder, on the other hand, insists that he’ll be OK in a caravan, and Alf begins to worry that his grandson may never return.
John shows to be a wise advisor to Cash
Cash is baffled by Jasmine’s attitude after he declined her request to move in with her. He isn’t convinced by her assurances that everything is alright.

Will Dean’s mediation efforts be successful?
