Paul gets back at Lyn for blackmailing him and making his life difficult by publishing a harsh article about her in the newspaper. She is shocked at what he did and worries that it's definitely going to make it difficult for her to stay in Erinsborough, while Rebecca realises that Paul might have been a little bit too cruel. Lyn's worries become reality when her application for a loan from the bank is declined and this understandably causes Steph to berate Rebecca and Paul for what they've done. However, just as Lyn is about to return to Shelly Bay, Steph tells her that she's figured out a way for her to stay...

Elsewhere, now that Zeke's moved back in with them, Susan and Karl realise that they have to let Sunny's parents know about this new development. Sunny is typically too embarrassed to talk about her relationship when she clocks that they are trying to talk to her about it and runs away. She tells Zeke about the horridness of it all and he pretends to understand, saying he'll wait until she's ready before they take their relationship any further. He, however, sings a different tune when he later talks to Toadie. A bit later, Susan and Karl get Sunny to act as translator between them and her parents despite her reluctance to broach the subject of her relationship with Zeke, and she takes to conveying a very different message to her folks than the one Susan and Karl communicate.
