Home and Away‘s Cash Newman resorts to striking a deal with dangerous Nerida Mullins on UK screens next week.

The Summer Bay policeman presents Nerida with a tempting offer as he desperately tries to keep his ex-fiancée Eden Fowler safe.

Home and Away recently aired a huge cliffhanger as Cash woke up with blood on his hands next to Tim Russell’s lifeless body.

After weeks of tension between the two men, Cash was quickly suspected of harming Tim. However, this week’s episodes see Cash experience a flashback as he remembers that Nerida was the culprit.

In follow-on scenes next week, Nerida strikes again by sneaking into the Intensive Care Unit to visit Tim, who’s still in a coma.

Nerida brings flowers as she pretends to be a concerned visitor, but with so much at stake, it seems that she could be plotting to finish Tim off.

Fortunately, Abigail Fowler catches Nerida sneaking around in Tim’s hospital room and prevents her from doing any further harm. Nerida responds by coldly threatening both Abigail and Eden.

Later, Abigail warns Cash about her frightening encounter with Nerida. Cash begs Abigail to go back to the hospital and keep an eye on Eden, while he’ll try to deal with the Nerida situation once and for all.

Cash meets up with Nerida and falsely claims to have CCTV evidence which proves her guilt in the Tim case.

He demands that Nerida leaves Eden and Tim alone for good, and in return he’ll take the fall for Tim’s attack.

Nerida accepts the shocking deal and goes to ground, but will Cash’s plan be thwarted when Tim finally wakes from his coma a few days later? His testimony could change everything…

Home and Away airs these scenes on Monday, March 17 on Channel 5.
