Next week on Home and Away in the UK, in the season finale for 2024, Cash comes face-to-face with the recipient of Felicity’s organs, while Alf’s life is on the line.
Note: If you watch the lunchtime airings on Channel 5, these are now showing at the earlier time of 1pm for the final two weeks of the season.
As Home and Away draws to a close this year, Cash (Nicholas Cartwright) is drawn into murky ethical territory as he arranges to meet the young woman who received late sister Felicity’s (Jacqui Purvis) heart and lungs.
As a grief-stricken Cash sat at a clinically dead Flick’s bedside, then-fiancee Eden (Stephanie Panozzo) had helped him make the decision to donate Flick’s organs.
Cash initially tried to convince Rose to make up a police case and contact the company asking for her name. But he then stumbled across an online forum.
After posting a message, he received a reply from Michelle (Mercy Cornwall), who explained that she had received a heart and lung transplant on the day of Flick’s passing. It seemed they had a match.
Tane (Ethan Browne) made it clear that he didn’t want anything to do with Cash’s plan, with John also expressing his unease, but next week Cash receives confirmation from Michelle that she would indeed like to meet him.
After hearing from John about what’s going on, Remi (Adam Rowland) talks to Cash, questioning whether he’s considered the potential consequences of meeting Michelle. What will he say? What does he hope to gain from this encounter? But Cash is adamant, insisting that this is all he’s thought about since receiving Michelle’s first letter.
To clear his head, Cash goes for a run. However, the painful memories of his final moments with Felicity, leading up to her organ donation, flood his mind.
Overwhelmed, he begins to have a panic attack. John finds him outside the surf club and helps him calm down, advising him to focus on his breath and work through his emotions.
When Michelle learns exactly who Eden was, she defends her, asking Cash why Eden shouldn’t get a chance to heal too. Cash tries to explain that it’s complicated, but given that Michelle is here to learn all about Flick, it’s only right that she and Eden meet.
Cash then heads over to the share house, and Eden is surprised when he asks her to come and meet Michelle. The two are nervous as they come face-to-face, but Eden is soon telling Michelle about how Flick brought the band to Summer Bay, and about Flick being co-owner of a restaurant.
Meanwhile, Cash is struggling as he takes some time out in the back garden, and has another panic attack.
Cardiothoracic surgeon Levi (Tristan Gorey) happens to be on hand however, so he takes some initial observations as Dana goes through Alf’s medical history.
When Bree suddenly appears, she takes offence at Levi stepping on her toes and dismisses him, pointing out that he will be called if needed once she’s made her own diagnosis.
Taking the syringe off Theresa, Bree orders her to leave, but cannot bring herself to administer the dose. Marilyn continues to yell at Bree, but is horrified when Bree then walks out, calmly saying she needs to go and check Alf’s bloods!
