Paul sneaks off on a secret mission to track down his son’s missing baby mama Nicolette, and hops on a plane to her old stomping ground of Canberra. His first line of enquiry is with Nic’s old frenemy Audrey Hamilton (Zahra Newman), who gives the Robinson rascal a lead as to where she might be.
Finally coming face-to-face with Ms Stone he realises there’s something different about her… Has she got a new hairdo? No, she’s already given birth to her daughter who is nowhere to be seen when Paul collars her in the park. Nic explains the baby is safe but refuses to hand her over, confirmation she’s doing a total u-turn on the surrogacy agreement. Unless Paul can change her mind… Will he return to Erinsborough empty-handed or with a bubba stuffed in his hand luggage?

The industrial espionage set in motion by Jesse Porter (Cameron Robbie) has taken an unexpected turn – the deceitful barman has gone from being on a mission to destroy the Lassiters empire to being taken under the wing of their formidable female boss Terese, despite his family being responsible for the death of her son.
The callous Quills plan to make Jesse the fall guy for their company’s latest crisis, making Terese feel sorry for the manipulated mole and deciding to confront Shay Quill about how badly she’s treated her relative. Harlow Robinson (Jemma Donovan) then suggests Terese and Paul wipe the slate clean with their rivals by taking advantage of the Quill group’s financial problems and buying into the business.

We’re learning more about what Melanie Pearson (Lucinda Cowden) was up to in those 30-odd years she wasn’t in the show, and it seems she kept herself pretty busy.

Surprised there’s room for anything in there among all those crazy bold print dresses.
Mel is forced into confess being Toadie isn’t her first workplace romance, though he’s alarmed by the gory details of what he learns and also questions why she kept it from him. Has Mackenzie’s accidental meddling made Jarrod question his future with the fun-loving Ramsay Street legend?
