Marilyn Chambers life will hang in the balance in Home and Away when she is electrocuted in a freak accident.
The incident will leave Marilyn's husband John Palmer devastated as he is forced to face up to the prospect that she might not pull through.
The story kicks off during Marilyn's usual shift at the Diner, but as she starts to clean the floor, she is unaware of the exposed wires.
Alone, Marilyn is absorbed in the cleaning task when she gets a violent jolt which sends her flying across the floor.
When Leah and Roo turn up later, they are horrified to see Marilyn unconscious on the floor and immediately rush her to hospital.
However, John will struggle to cope after he hears the concerning news about his wife and is left further devastated when new doctor James informs him that they have put Marilyn in an induced coma.
The Summer Bay residents are quick to rally around John in his time of need, but will Marilyn pull through?
Shane Withington, who plays John, said to TV Week: "John is horrified. This is his last chance at love in many ways and he is distraught. He is frustrated that he can't get any news from the doctors."
Speaking about filming the tough scenes, Withington added: "I wanted to really get on screen the fear that John would have. The bedside hospital scenes are some of the toughest I've had to do."
