Erinsborough Hospital - Boyd's room
Boyd is slowly coming round following the car crash and finds Detective Skinner in his room who tells him that Charlotte is being treated and that she has made a number of serious allegations against him. Boyd tries to tell him that it's a lie but Skinner doesn't buy it and tells him that he's going to be charged with very serious crimes.
Prisoner cell block h - Sky's cell
Sky walks back into her cell and is horrified to find that the room has been ransacked. She then notices some graffiti on the wall which reads
This Little Piglet ain't going home!
Sky is furious and when an officer then comes in and Sky tells her that they could stop them, she (rather rudely) tells her that if she wants it stop, she has to shut up and do what they tell her to do. When Sky then asks about Mary the officer tells that she's been transferred to another Prison. Sky does not look happy.
Erinsborough Hospital - Charlotte's room
Skinner is questioning Charlotte again who maintains that Boyd kidnapped her and before that he made theats to her so that she'd cooperate with him and Terence even through she was operating a fraudulent doctor's practice. She lies that when she found out what they were doing they threatened to kill her if she went to the police. Talk then turns to the 'Murder in Tasmania' and Skinner then asks her whether Boyd is involved in Terence's murder. Acting surprised, Charlotte tells him that yes she thinks he is.
Erinsborough Hospital - Boyd's room
Back in Boyd's room he's denying what Charlotte Told Skinner and that she took off when she found out the police were after her. Skinner asks why he'd taken up with her in the first place to which he replies that he thought they had something going on between them. He also thought that they could help each other and that changed when he realised she'd murdered Terence.
SKINNER: So why didn't you come to us?
BOYD: It all happened so fast. I thought that if I let her get away, Sky would never get out of prison because I didn't have any proof.
SKINNER: How do you plan to get this Proof?
BOYD: I didn't have a plan. I just knew that I couldn't let her get away. Then I realised that if I could get her to confess, I could record it on my MP3 player.
SKINNER: And that's your story.
He asks where the player is and Boyd tells him it's in his jacket in his car. Skinner warns him about wasting police time and leaves to search for the MP3 player.
Number 28
Davo and Susan are talking about her and Karl's trip to London and he seems confused by it and Susan lies that she had a holiday romance whilst there. Pepper comes in and Susan introduces her to Davo as Karl's personal trainer. Davo seems taken with her as Karl arrives back from a run. He's surprised to see Davo. Davo wants a quick word with Karl so Susan and Pepper leave them to it. Davo then asks Karl if he wouldn't mind taking 'Her' out and Karl thinks he's talking about Pepper and tells him to take it slowly. He then offers to make it a foursome after work.

Harold is visiting Sky and tells her he's hoping Toadie can come up with something for the appeal.

Pepper leaves to try and find something to wear and Susan is appalled that they have continue with their white lie.

Toadie tells him that people were disappointed with him in how he treated Janae but nobody hates him. Boyd tells Steph he was serious about leaving when he wrote her the letter.
STEPH: Mate look you've made some big mistakes but your a good person and you took a huge risk getting Charlotte to confess and you did it because Sky needed it. That's pretty great.

STEPH: Please don't ever think your not loved and supported around here, OK.
She hugs him and they head off to ring Max

SKY: Toadie told me what you did.
BOYD: It wasn't that much.
SKY: Boyd. You got Kerry her mum back. And I will never ever forget it.
