Also ahead in Summer Bay, Romeo Smith is put in a difficult position when his brother-in-law Dexter Walker confides in him about his latest health problems.
When Dexter (Charles Cottier) starts to suffer seizures, he asks Romeo to take him to the hospital - but he doesn't want the rest of the family to find out until he's sure what he's dealing with.
Romeo (Luke Mitchell) would much prefer to be honest, but he also wants to respect Dex's wishes, so he agrees to provide an explanation for Dex's absence when it turns out that he'll have to stay in hospital overnight.
Unfortunately, Romeo's attempts at creating a believable cover story leave a lot to be desired! Will Sid or Indi realise that something is amiss?

ACTRESS Samara Weaving has revealed Jett James develops a dangerous crush on Indi Smith.
She said her character Indi, below, is nice to him at first – until things get out of hand.
Sadly for her husband Romeo, things get so out of control he ends up in a life-threatening situation.
Gorgeous Samara said: “Jett’s trying to impress her by being a ‘man’ like Romeo.
“Indi’s really nice to him and she helps with his studies as he doesn’t have many friends in the Bay.
“It’s harmless – until it goes a bit crazy.”
Viewers will see Jett lock Romeo in a shed before running off. He climbs out of a window but falls and bangs his head.
Only Jett knows where Romeo is, so fans will wonder whether he survives.
You can catch the storyline on Channel 5 this spring.

As Romeo is leaving, I suspect his character is being killed off :(

Home and Away's Romeo Smith will keep his wife Indi in the dark when he faces a health scare.
Romeo is told to see a specialist in the city when the results of an x-ray on his shoulder suggest that there could be something wrong with him.
The latest storyline begins when Romeo experiences sudden shoulder pains during a work-out.
After having an x-ray done as a precaution, Romeo is shocked when concerned doctor Sid Walker (Robert Mammone) - Indi's father - tells him that he'll need further tests away from Summer Bay.
Luke Mitchell, who plays Romeo, told TV Week: "Now Romeo is worried. He wants to know why he needs to go for more tests."
Although Romeo agrees to see a specialist, he doesn't tell Indi (Samara Weaving) the truth about where he's going, not wanting to worry her when they're so busy managing the gym.
Mitchell continued: "Considering the gym has become such a focus, he knows Indi will begin to fret, and he doesn't want that. He doesn't want to let her down.
"He tells Indi that he is heading into the city for a conference when he's actually going to see a specialist. [The lie] doesn't come from a bad place at all - but for now, it's just the easiest way for Romeo to deal with the situation."
Teasing where the storyline is heading, Mitchell promised "a long and emotional journey ahead for Romeo".
Off-screen, Mitchell has already filmed his final scenes for Home and Away and was recently cast in US show Tomorrow People.

Home and Away's Romeo Smith will be left devastated when he gets diagnosed with skin cancer in an upcoming storyline.
Romeo, played by Luke Mitchell, makes the heart-breaking decision to hide his illness from wife Indi (Samara Weaving).
Romeo had no signs of symptoms that he had the disease, making his diagnosis even harder to understand.
Speaking to TV Week, Luke Mitchell said: "It knocks him for six. He is completely and utterly stunned. It is huge news that comes out of nowhere."
Romeo then decides not to tell Indi as he feels she already has too much going on with starting a new business.
Mitchell commented: "He doesn't want to stress her out because at this point in time, they're starting a new business and they have so much going on.
"How do you tell the person you are closest to something like that? It is almost impossible."
Whilst Indi is unaware over Romeo's diagnosis, her father Sid will be on hand to offer his son-in-law support.
"There is some really fantastic stuff coming up for Romeo and Sid," Mitchell said.
"There is the contrast between the father-in-law and the doctor."
However, despite Romeo's optimism, Mitchell has revealed there is a very dark time ahead for his alter ego.
"Romeo thinks it is absolutely treatable and he will get through it," he added.
"But it's huge and there are a few different stages, but from the outset, there is just a dark shadow hanging over him."
Mitchell also revealed that he thinks Romeo's skin cancer storyline is an important one to portray on the soap.
"It is something that can happen to any one of any age and I really hope it will wake up younger people," he said.
"It's really important to be aware of it. It happens to such a fun-loving guy like Romeo, so it could happen to anyone."
Mitchell has already filmed his final scenes as Romeo and was recently cast in US show Tomorrow People.
:crying:
