In an attempt to deal with his split, Tane starts having affairs, and when Felicity confronts Mackenzie, she crumbles. Leah, meantime, is still plagued by visions of Vita Nova.
Mackenzie, a beloved character from Home and Away, may not survive if she passes out holding her chest next week.
Tane comes in and cuts off all communication with his wife, but Mackenzie and Felicity are still at strife. When their argument spills into a packed Salt, a furious Felicity declares that all meals will be provided free of charge.
Felicity resentfully complies to Mackenzie’s insistence that she shouldn’t be working, taking money straight out of the till to cover the cost of a hotel room. As Mackenzie leaves for home, Felicity knocks on her door. She apologises and asks Mack to give Tane back her wedding ring as a sign of optimism for their union.
Tane declines, and he apologises to Mac for putting her in the midst every time. Tane chooses to ban Felicity completely after receiving a flurry of texts from her while Mali prepares breakfast for the housemates.
Tane throws the ring in the trash after Mackenzie tries again to return it, despite Mackenzie’s argument that perhaps he just needs to give it some time. Tane dismisses Harper and her planned PT session as she gets back to the gym.
He ends up declaring to everyone in the gym that his marriage is finished, even though she offers to talk to him about whatever is hurting him. Mali makes an effort to help Tane get through their breakup.
Although Mali doesn’t agree, Tane believes that a big night out is the best way to let his wife out of his system. On her way out the following morning, Tane introduces Mali to a one-night stand.
Felicity knocks on Mac’s door in the middle of the night and requests to speak with him after Tane cuts off all communication. Mac doesn’t waver and assures her that he will convey her message.
When Cash confronts Mac the following day, he admits that Tane wasn’t even at home when Felicity came to see him since he was sleeping with someone else. Cash discusses the situation with Eden in private and debates telling Felicity the truth. Felicity, though, has been listening via the wall.
Her hostility grows as she goes straight to Salt to confront Mackenzie. Mack suddenly collapses to the ground, clutching her chest in agony. Felicity reels in horror, but Xander and Cash act fast and call for help.
Justin confronts Leah across the bay regarding the sleeplessness and night terror studies he found. She acknowledges that she’s had some difficult nights of restless sleep, and Justin begs her to share these things with him. She complies, heading off to work.
Following a lengthy shift at the cafe, Leah’s thoughts quickly return to the kidnapping as a car approaches. Leah tells Justin that she can’t stop the dreams since they started, and Justin jumps out of the car and goes to her side.
