Next week, the season finale of *Home and Away* brings a shocking twist that leaves Alf Stewart’s life hanging in the balance. As the episode unfolds, Alf’s health begins to take a dramatic turn for the worse, and viewers are left on the edge of their seats.
The tension starts to build when Alf begins to feel unwell. While helping John pack equipment into the surf rescue boat, Alf’s strained movements don’t go unnoticed by John. Concerned, John asks if he’s okay, but Alf reassures him that he’s fine, attributing it to just a bit of exhaustion. However, the following morning, during a quiet breakfast in the diner, Alf feels a sudden sharp pain in his chest. The discomfort subsides almost as quickly as it appeared, but it’s enough to rattle Alf, who knows all too well the dangers of his cardiac history. This fleeting moment of discomfort foreshadows something far more serious.
Later that day, things take a dramatic turn for the worse. While standing outside the Surf Club, Alf is struck by excruciating chest pain. Grabbing his chest, he collapses to the ground, and the situation quickly becomes dire. Tar and Perry are nearby and rush to his aid, with Harper calling for an ambulance. Alf is rushed to the Northern Districts Hospital, where the stakes are raised even higher.
As Alf is admitted, there’s an unsettling air of confusion in the emergency room. Nurse Dana is left puzzled when she realizes that Brie, the attending doctor, is missing from her post. Brie has been acting strangely in recent days, obsessing over small tasks both at work and at home, which has raised suspicions in the hospital. When Brie finally arrives, she seems irritable and dismissive of the medical staff around her. She’s not happy to see cardiothoracic surgeon Levi on hand to assist, and she quickly brushes him off, insisting that she’ll handle Alf’s diagnosis herself.
When Brie attempts to take Alf’s blood pressure, she struggles, having to repeat the procedure multiple times before it’s done to her satisfaction. Dana offers to step in, but Brie firmly rejects her offer, much to the concern of both Alf and Marilyn, who has rushed to the hospital to be by Alf’s side. The tension in the room grows palpable as Brie’s uncharacteristic behavior becomes more apparent.
Alf appears to be improving for a moment, but just as things seem to calm down, Marilyn notices something alarming—Alf’s nose begins to bleed. Brie’s unease is evident, and she immediately demands to look at Alf’s medical chart. But as the situation rapidly deteriorates, Alf begins clutching his chest again, and his condition worsens. The alarms begin to blare, and chaos erupts in the emergency room.
In the midst of the growing panic, the nurses are looking to Brie for guidance, but she remains frozen, unable to make a decision. Marilyn, desperate for action, pleads with Brie to do something, but Brie is hesitant. Nurse Theresa prepares a syringe, urging Brie to take immediate action, but Brie stops her, telling her to hold off. She orders Theresa to leave and remains strangely composed, refusing to administer the necessary dose to Alf.
As Alf writhes in agony, Marilyn becomes increasingly frantic, screaming at Brie to act. But instead of stepping up, Brie calmly walks out of the room, claiming she needs to check off some blood work. The nurses are left in shock, and the question on everyone’s mind is chilling—has Brie just left Alf to die?
This shocking turn of events leaves viewers wondering if Brie’s actions—or lack thereof—will cost Alf his life. Will the doctors and nurses be able to save him in time, or is it already too late? The *Home and Away* season finale promises high-stakes drama and intense emotional moments, and fans are on the edge of their seats as they wait to see if Alf will survive this deadly crisis. Stay tuned for more updates and watch the heart-stopping conclusion to this cliffhanger!
