Home and Away spoilers for next week 9 to 13 November 2026

 Next week on Home and Away, Eden leaves the hospital and vows to enjoy her final days on her own terms.

Elsewhere, memories of the past threaten David's relationship with Amelia, while Lacey and Dylan's romance may be over before it begins.

Here are 13 big moments coming up.

Eden makes a wish for her future

As Eden's health deteriorates, she and Cash reminisce about their life together. Eden shares her wish for one more normal day, and Cash explains that Melanie has passed away.

Meanwhile, Sonny convinces Remi that he has every right to be at Eden's side. Sonny and Remi pay Eden a visit and try to lift her spirits by playing some Lyrik music in the hospital room.

Eden is touched but frustrated to be stuck in her hospital bed.

 Eden checks out of hospital

Mackenzie fears that Levi isn't looking after himself. Levi admits that the hospital staff are just trying to keep Eden alive long enough to find a donor. Mackenzie is firm and demands Levi get some rest instead of returning to the hospital.

The next day, Levi is horrified to learn that Eden has checked herself out of hospital overnight. With Cash and Gary having also gone AWOL, Levi fears the worst.

 Cash persuades Eden to let her family in

With the help of Remi and Gary, Cash and Eden find peace on a farm in the country. Eden insists that Cash rejects Levi's calls so they can enjoy their time together.

Eventually, Cash convinces Eden that her family want to support her too and that they should let Levi know their location.

When Cash calls Levi, Cash gets an earful about his reckless behaviour. Cash warns Levi that if he's coming to the farm for a fight, he shouldn't come at all.

Eden takes a turn for the worse

Mackenzie tells Levi and Abigail that they need to respect Eden's decision, but when they all arrive at the farm, Levi immediately begins medical checks. Eden calms Levi down and makes it clear that she intends her final days to be happy ones.

Later, Remi and Eden reflect on their friendship, and Remi admits that she changed his life for the better.

The next morning, Cash and Eden realise that she has suffered a severe nosebleed overnight. Will Eden survive much longer?

David's past threatens his future with Amelia

Gary meets David and fills him in on Eden's hospitalisation, but Gary's words trigger memories of Kristina for David.

Later, David and Amelia plan to spend the evening together but David's mood drops after another encounter with Gary. Amelia urges him to open up but David cancels their date.

Alone, David reflects on his loss.

 Amelia demands answers

Amelia questions David about his behaviour but he refuses to be drawn. The argument is interrupted by Jo, who apologises to Amelia for coming down so hard on her.

David tries to sidestep Amelia's questioning, and Amelia storms out.

David catches up with Amelia and confesses that he's struggling with memories of Kristina. Amelia is understanding and the pair agree to work through it together.

 Dylan and Lacey try again

After an awkward encounter with Dylan, Lacey is advised by Jo to talk it out with him.

Meanwhile, Sonny points out to Dylan that Lacey isn't ready to date, and he needs to take things slow.

Dylan and Lacey clear the air and head back to Dylan's place, where Lacey decides to heat things up. Taking Sonny's advice, Dylan pours cold water on Lacey's advances, but Lacey assumes she's misread the situation and rushes out.

Dylan tells Lacey the truth

Dylan and Sonny are at loggerheads following the incident with Lacey. When Sonny realises that Dylan took his advice, he apologises and reveals the truth about his relationship with Dana.

Meanwhile, Dylan reaches out to Lacey and unintentionally reveals that Sonny told him about Theo.

Later, Lacey tells Sonny that he overstepped the mark but knows he had good intentions. Following their conversation, Lacey and Dylan look to the future.

Richie is given a boost from Abigail

As the graduation ceremony for the Bronze Medallion participants gets under way, Abigail arrives to support Richie.

John enlists Richie to give a speech, and he expresses his pride in helping to keep Summer Bay safe.

Later, Richie contemplates the life he almost had by looking at pictures from his police graduation, but Abigail reminds him he's still the same man.

 Richie is under pressure

Following the ceremony, Justin has a stern conversation with Richie over his lack of employment. Richie promises to get a job ASAP and is touched when John offers him a reference should he need it.

Later, Richie comforts Abigail following her discovery that Eden has left hospital but winds up late to his first lifesaving shift.

John is disappointed in Richie's tardiness and lays the pressure on thick throughout the shift. John softens when Richie reveals what has been distracting him.

 Marilyn makes contact with Roo

Ahead of the graduation ceremony, Alf is feeling downbeat and wishes Roo were around to celebrate. Marilyn clocks his mood and decides to contact Roo.

After reaching out, Marilyn informs Alf that Roo will be home the next day. However, when Roo is a no-show, Alf is concerned and Marilyn tries to convince him that Roo must've taken the scenic route.

 Roo is missing

Alf and Marilyn prepare a welcome home spread for Roo but she's still nowhere to be seen. Alf is frustrated to learn that Roo emailed John the night before but hasn't bothered to contact him.

Alf finally receives a text from Roo explaining that she's having car trouble and will be home soon.

Alf is relieved but is unaware that the text was written by a mysterious, gloved man. What's happened to Roo?

 Tane makes a decision about his future

Tane confides in Mackenzie about how much he's struggling with missing out on time with Archie. When Mackenzie suggests he hire a manager for the gym and go on longer visits, Tane has an idea.

Later, Tane tells Alf that there's nothing keeping him in Summer Bay anymore and thinks it might be time to move on.

Tane informs Mali of his decision to move closer to Archie and asks him to look after the gym until he's decided what to do with it. Mali has doubts but ultimately agrees on the condition that it's not a long-term situation.

Australia, as Summer Bay gathers in mourning, Alf begins to accept that Roo might be gone for good – but is she really dead?

 This week on Home and Away in Australia

Alf (Ray Meagher) has refused to believe that his missing daughter Roo (Georgie Parker) could be dead, despite the discovery of a body in her burnt-out car. But this week, his friends rally around him as he begins to face the possibility that she may never come home.

Roo had been due back in Summer Bay after visiting her mum Martha (Belinda Giblin) in Merimbula, with a text about car trouble initially explaining her delayed arrival. Unbeknownst to Alf, the message hadn’t been sent by Roo, but by a mysterious man who had Roo’s phone in his possession.

As the days passed without any further contact, Alf’s frustration turned to fear, particularly when Justin (James Stewart) questioned what could have gone wrong with the car he regularly serviced.

Unable to reach Roo, Alf sought help from Sergeant David (Jeremy Lindsay Taylor), whose enquiries revealed that she had used her credit card at a bakery in Bayfield on the day she was expected home.

It was a familiar stop on the journey back from Martha’s, only an hour from Summer Bay. But knowing that Roo had made it so close to home left Alf all the more bewildered, especially when David confirmed that there had been no further activity on her card since.

With Roo officially reported missing, David pursued phone records and CCTV footage, whilst Alf phoned around friends—including Sally (Kate Ritchie)—in the hope that someone had heard from her.

Those hopes suffered a devastating blow when David and Constable Lombard (Shannon Ryan) discovered Roo’s burnt-out car in an isolated stretch of forest, with a body inside the boot.

David broke the news to Alf, explaining that the remains were those of a woman and that the fire appeared to be deliberate.

However, with the body still unidentified and the coroner’s report potentially a week or more away, Alf insisted there was still reason to hope.

Until you can tell me beyond any doubt that that is Roo, as far as I’m concerned, she’s still alive and well,” he told David.

Refusing to abandon the search, Alf continued handing out missing posters and left Roo another desperate voicemail, pleading with her to call him.

At the end of last week, Alf made the journey to the forest where he stood at the edge of the police cordon.

“It’s not her. A father knows,” he told David.

Alf’s determination continues this week, with a promo showing a search team scouring the forest as Alf declares in voiceover: “She’s out there somewhere. There’s no way I’m giving up on her.”

However, as TV Week reports, with the investigation failing to produce any further breakthroughs, all the evidence points towards Roo being dead.

The strain on Alf is clear in the promo, as he falls to his knees in tears on Flat Beach as Justin does his best to support him.

I can’t just give up on her, she’s my daughter,” he says tearfully.

Then don’t,” Justin replies, but Alf’s response reveals just how frightened he has become—”What if they’re right, what if she’s not coming home?”

As Alf wrestles with that possibility, David’s return to the scene of the crime brings a potential lead, as he encounters a passing stranger who claims to have seen Roo talking to a male hitchhiker.

“David notices his wedding ring and asks to speak to his wife. But the man tells him his wife has passed away,” Jeremy tells TV Week.

“The widowers connect, both having lost their wives and unable to remove their wedding rings afterwards. David’s guard drops with this connection, blurring his usual laser focus.”

Whilst their shared experience leaves David sympathetic towards the stranger, an unsettling development that night suggests to viewers that the man may have more to tell.

As Alf watches a television news report about Roo’s disappearance, the stranger is watching the same coverage in his own home, where he takes out a hammer stained with dried blood and wraps it in newspaper alongside Roo’s phone…

Back in Summer Bay, Remi (Adam Rowland) enlists help to organise a vigil that evening, bringing Roo’s friends together to support Alf as hope of finding her alive begins to fade.

Strings of lights illuminate the path down to the beach, where the gathering around the fire pit is encircled by lanterns. 

Justin brings his guitar to join Remi, who is already playing, whilst Marilyn (Emily Symons) and Leah (Ada Nicodemou) accompany Alf down to the sand.

You’re not alone,” Leah assures him, a sentiment echoed by John (Shane Withington) as he approaches—”Not even for a minute.”

Surrounded by his friends, Alf finally begins to accept what he’s tried so hard to deny, that Roo may be gone for good. 

The following morning, Marilyn, Leah and Justin accompany Alf to the forest where he lays some sunflowers at the crime scene.

The people of Summer Bay are devastated by the apparent passing of Roo, one of the most loved and respected people in the community,” Jeremy explains. “Tears are shed; hearts broken. David feels deeply responsible. He feels a failure.”

On his way back to the bay, Alf calls in at Yabbie Creek police station to ask whether the coroner has identified the body yet, hoping he can get some closure and start organising a funeral for his daughter.

This time, David has an answer for him, with spoilers for the latter half of the week suggesting that the body isn’t Roo’s after all!

But with a search for her soon getting underway, any relief for Alf may be short-lived as it raises further questions.

With another woman’s body discovered in the boot of her car, police start looking at whether she could have been involved in the death—a suggestion that leaves Alf furious.

Where is Roo, and what does the stranger with the bloodied hammer know about her disappearance?
