2. Eric continues to spiral
Meanwhile, Eric Foster (Angus Castle-Doughty) has it in for Mason Chen-Williams (Frank Kauer) after the lad left his “Men’s First Page” forum.
The tensions continues to build between them as the youngster tries to avoid Eric as best as he can.
Later on, however, Sally grants Eric some time away, noticing how tense everything is in school.
Eric decides to help his half-brother Tony at The Dog… until a rumour about his involvement with Maxime Minniver (Nikki Sanderson) leads Tony to make a drastic decision.
Sally then asks Eric to come back to the school, feeling guilty for asking him to take some time off.
She catches his mind drifting away from work and tells him off.
But Eric’s mask suddenly falls off and his bad temper makes an appearance.
This prompts him to make a shocking admission before wrecking the school hallway in front of everyone.
Is everyone in the village figuring out who Eric really is?
Lizzie becomes another target this week
3. Lizzie gets spiked
It could only be a matter of time until they do.
Things will be escalating as Eric secures a job at the Love Boat while continuing on his destructive path.
This is the first step to his new evil plan and, as a group of girls show up, Eric records his thoughts on his phone while watching them.
The girls turn their attention away from their drinks, leading to Eric spiking one of them.
Eric takes his rage out on another member of the Chen-Williams family – Lizzie (Lily Best).
His actions lead to a frightening hospitalisation and Mason is determined to find out what happened to his sister.
The teen turns to Eric for help, unaware he’s asking for support from the main culprit.
Despite the shock of being hospitalised, Lizzie puts on a defiant front as she orders the girls rallying around her to go to the Love Boat.
However, Eric serves up a new batch of drinks for them and scepticism from his previous victim Maxine could ruin his whole plan.
Ethan could get caught up by the truth
4. Ethan lets the truth slip
The Chen-Williams family could also be on the verge of being ripped apart as a slip of the tongue leads Ethan (Matthew Bailey) to reveal his involvement in Maya’s death to his brother Dave.
Whether Dave decides to help Ethan escape from justice or not remains to be seen but one member of their clan is eager to turn him in.
There are heart-breaking consequences for Ethan…
But not before he can turn to another one of his partners in crime.

5. Is Sienna moving on?
