"I just feel you know more than you're telling me"

Things come to a head with Mink's storyline and some of her recent behaviour makes more sense, while some arguably makes less sense but can probably be written off as her being in denial.Romeo and Indi both make sweet offers to her but in the end she makes an abrupt, but in character, escape from the Bay.

Alf discovers that organising a council campaign isn't as easy as it seems as Gina begins to be swayed for Harvey's arguments.Elijah avoiding Miles as he continues to help Leah out raises awkward questions about his future plans.

Sasha tries her best to avoid Stu(although walking off to the bus stop on her own instead of waiting for Indi doesn't help)but finds it harder than she thought and is once more on the receiving end of his temper. This is an intriguing storyline, highlighting a genuine issue, and it's good to see the show tackling it.
