TV Week has the following Neighbours plot teaser for the week of 22 - 26 May:


Trouble On The Cards. Desperate For Cash, Sonya Joins An Illegal Poker Game.

Stuck on a slippery slope, Sonya makes yet another bad decision in Neighbours this week.

Sonya's (Eve Morey) life is falling to pieces. Having already lost her marriage, job, reputation - and soon possibly even her daughter - Sonya doesn't think things could get much worse.

Now, without financial support from her estranged husband, Toadie (Ryan Moloney), or her mayoral income, Sonya finds her money problems mounting.

Worried about how to make ends meet, she catches wind of a high-stakes illegal poker game Leo will be running. It seems like the perfect solution.

When Sonya turns up at Leo's to play, he can tell she's been drinking.

"She's pretty drunk at that point," Eve, 33, says. "Sonya started drinking as a means of coping, but things are getting out of hand. It's only a matter of time before everything unravels."

Leo gently advises Sonya that now isn't the right time for her to be gambling - a suggestion she ignores, buying in at $1000.

While things start out well, Sonya's luck with the cards quickly turns. And it's not long before she's lost all her cash.

"Sonya's not making great decisions," Eve explains. "But she's not in her right mind and is desperate."

Anxious to continue playing, Sonya asks Leo for an IOU. But he refuses.

"We've never seen her at this point," Eve says. "It's sad. Sonya promised herself she'd never gamble again, yet here she is."

Just when it looks like Sonya is done for the night, one of the players offers her a loan.

Leo begs her to rethink, but she's adamant she'll win it back.

Will Sonya lose everything?
