Sonny (Ryan Bown) struggled to adapt to life in a wheelchair after he was left with a spinal injury following the events of the 2025 season finale.
However, he ended up sticking around after learning about Remi’s (Adam Rowland) brain tumour.
He’s become increasingly fed up of Dana and Remi’s attempts to help him, and has been frustrated by his slow recovery as he rebuilds his lost strength.
After pushing himself too hard at Archie’s first birthday party, he found himself unable to walk up the stairs to Dana and Harper’s (Jessica Redmayne) apartment, just days after moving back in.
Unfortunately for Sonny, it was the same morning that the surf club garage had been broken into, with a number of tools stolen.
Thankfully, David (Jeremy Lindsay Taylor) eventually agreed that Sonny wasn’t likely to have been the culprit, with Sonny pointing out that he could barely walk, let alone steal the expensive generator and power tools which had gone missing.
Dana freaks out when she finds out about Sonny breaking into the gym, but Sonny reassures her that he wasn’t arrested, he was simply “questioned” by the police. He also explains that he’s now got things under control – there won’t be any repeat incidents.
“Sonny lies to Dana about the gym as she thinks he’s pushing himself too hard too quickly,” Ryan continued in his interview with TV Week. “But Sonny is so determined to get back to the old Sonny that he ignores her advice and Tane’s training program.”
However, when Tane finds out about Sonny breaking into the gym, he’s far less understanding than Dana. He realises that Sonny is becoming obsessed with working out and risks seriously injuring himself.
Sonny’s frustration grows – he’s just trying to get stronger, he doesn’t understand why everyone’s determined to stand in his way.
Soon after, he gets an elicit offer as he runs into a stranger who’s seen his plight, and offers him steroids to help “speed up” his recovery.
There’s no word yet on who the stranger is, but we’re expecting numerous new characters to arrive in the near future.
In the next few weeks, we’ll be meeting Beau (Blake Richardson), who’s set to sweep Harper off her feet, and new doctor Amelia Carlisle (Nicole da Silva).
Elsewhere, David and rookie cop Richie (Rocco Forrester-Sach) continues to investigate the crime wave which has swept the bay in recent weeks.
Richie was delighted when he was handed his first case and he set about diving into the details.
“He can see that he is eager, which brings a new energy to the station, not such a bad thing in his opinion.”
A few nights later, the surf club garage was broken into, with various power tools and a backup generator stolen. Alf (Ray Meagher) was despondent, asking “what sort of low mongrel’d rob this place?”
He starts the week in a positive mood as he and Leah (Ada Nicodemou) enjoy a romantic picnic on the beach, but talk soon turns back to his new mobile mechanic business, which is struggling after an initial flurry of customers.
John tried to make it up to Justin by helping him get a website for the business off the ground, and calls soon started coming in. But now they’ve dried up.
As he arrives at a remote road in search of the broken down vehicle, he’s surprised to find the road empty.
With zero bars of signal, he gets out of his freshly branded vehicle – the former Lyrik van – and walks down the road in search of reception.
Who is the Summer Bay thief? And, as the drama escalates in the coming weeks, who will end up being shot?
Samara Weaving has welcomed her first child with her movie director husband Jimmy Warden.
The former Home and Away star positively glowed when she stepped out to promote her new movie Carolina Caroline at The Meryl Streep Center for Performing Artists on Tuesday in Los Angeles.
The 34-year-old first-time mother was beaming as she posed in a cream vest paired with pinstripe pants and statement red pumps.
Samara and her husband are yet to share any information on social media about the sex or name of the newborn.
Samara first revealed she was expecting in December 2025.
The Aussie actress shared the exciting news by posting a gallery of baby bump photos to Instagram during the press tour for Ready or Not 2: Here I Come.
In one image, Samara stretched her body out on a lounge in a sparkly brown dress as she had her make-up done.
She also revealed her growing bump as she posed in a sheer lace top on the balcony of her LA home.
'Ready or Not: Here I Come,' she simply captioned the images, adding a winking face emoji.
Her friends and fans flooded the comments with congratulations, while her husband Jimmy jokingly asked who the baby's father was.
'Congrats! Who is the dad?' he joked.
'Whaaaaattttt? Congrats Sam… so happy for you guys,' actor Melvin Gregg said.
'Never have I ever seen anything as beautiful!!! Yay!' Annie Karstens added while her former Home and Away co-star Demi Harman wrote: 'Yas mamacitaaaa.'
'I knew it!!!! all along congrats,' another person added.
SAMARA!!!! Congratulations mama!!! ❤️' one commented.
Samara and Jimmy met on the set of the Netflix comedy-horror The Babysitter, and married in secret in 2019, according to Who magazine.
The notoriously private star alluded to her marriage during a chat with the Herald Sun in 2022, when asked about her next project.
'I am actually about to go and work with my husband,' she said at the time.
Rumours of a secret marriage had been circulating for about a year prior.
Samara is the niece of Lord of the Rings star Hugo Weaving.
Alf (Ray Meagher) has spent the past week insisting he can still look after himself, but overlooking the deadline for renewing his licence and car rego has left Roo (Georgie Parker) increasingly worried that her dad’s starting to miss things he once would’ve had under control.
When Cash asked to see his licence, Alf sheepishly told him that had expired too.
Cash was prepared to let Alf off with a warning, but Alf refused special treatment and accepted that he’d done the wrong thing.
David reassures him, but makes it clear that Alf can’t avoid the process if he wants to keep driving. Alf promises to sort it, and finally accepts David’s offer of discretion over the fine, admitting he’s already punished himself enough.
Justin (James Stewart) realises that pushing Alf will only make him retreat further.
Later, after a conversation with Sonny (Ryan Bown) about accepting help during difficult times, Alf is more receptive when Justin finds him and offers support without pressure.
By the following day, Roo is looking for Alf again, worried that he may have driven before everything is officially sorted. Marilyn and Leah try to reassure her, but Roo still doesn’t know whether he’s renewed his licence.
Alf soon pulls up outside the surf club and reveals that the matter is settled. He’s got his new licence in his pocket, with no demerits, exclusions or other conditions attached.
Roo is relieved, whilst Alf’s pleased that everyone can finally stop treating him as a problem to be managed.
Leah is uneasy when she realises Roo doesn’t know. Justin thinks they should stay out of it, but Leah believes Roo would want to be told if Alf is about to take on a long drive alone.
When Roo hears the news, she’s immediately concerned. Alf’s not long returned from Merimbula, and she thinks it’s too soon to make the full-day drive again by himself.
When Marilyn asks what Martha thinks, Roo gets an idea and calls her mum to put him off. Marilyn warns that lying to Alf isn’t the best way to handle things, but Roo hopes she can at least give Alf a reason to hold off.
Alf’s heard enough. He’s done the medical, got his licence back, and sees no reason for Roo to keep questioning him.
This time, Alf softens. He goes to see Roo at the diner and admits that, whilst he’s still angry about her involving Martha, he can see where she’s coming from.
He agrees there’ll be no more cross-country trips on a whim. When he does head to Merimbula, he’ll plan it properly, take more breaks and avoid driving late.
The following morning, Abigail (Hailey Pinto) returns to the farmhouse injured and limping after a night out with Lacey (Sophea Pennington). Abby tells Levi (Tristan Gorey) that someone hit her with their car.
The driver didn’t stop, and Abby can’t give much detail beyond the fact that she thinks the vehicle was red.
Roo later approaches Alf at the surf club and asks whether there’s any chance he could’ve hit someone without realising. Alf is stunned, insisting he’d know if he’d hit someone, and looks Roo in the eye as he tells her he had nothing to do with it.
They arrive at the surf club and ask Alf to come to the station to answer questions about a traffic incident.
