Summer Bay is reeling from a harsh truth as David, after months of emotional struggle, decides to reopen the file on his wife Christina’s death. However, what he finds is not a smoking gun, but a heartbreaking twist that reveals a secret his own daughter, Jo, has completely forgotten!

The Bitter Conflict Between David, Jo, and Lacy

Christina’s death in the car crash—with Jo behind the wheel—shattered the David family. Lacy, the eldest daughter, believed her father had orchestrated a cover-up to protect Jo, and this bitter resentment led her to cut off all contact with both her father and sister for six months.

Desperate to heal his family, David began to review the old police files himself, hoping to find a crucial detail that had been overlooked. Jo, who suffered complete amnesia regarding the moment of the accident, just wanted closure . But Lacy remained stubborn, convinced David would find evidence to incriminate Jo.

The 0000 Call: An Unbelievable Revelation

While examining the file, one detail shocked David: There was no record of who placed the 0000 emergency call on the day of the crash. David decided to request the audio recording of the call, believing it could lead to a vital witness.

But when the shaky voice echoed from his laptop, David was devastated. The terrified caller was none other than:

JO HERSELF MADE THE EMERGENCY CALL AFTER THE ACCIDENT!

Jo was utterly confused, adamantly denying it as she could remember nothing. David, fearing his daughter would suffer another breakdown, hesitated to play the audio for her.

Lacy Confronts Her Conscience

Meanwhile, Lacy, focused only on blame, was gently challenged by Theo and Leah about her selfishness. Theo gently reminded Lacy that she wasn’t the only one hurting—David and Jo were also grappling with Christina’s loss.

When Lacy went to confront her father, she accidentally overheard the audio file. She was stunned to realize Jo had called for help and was incredulous that her sister remembered none of the heroic act. David had to intervene, asking Lacy to consider the trauma Jo must have endured that day.

For the first time, Lacy acknowledged the immense emotional toll on Jo and David. Although David had to close the case without finding the complete truth, Lacy still pressured Jo to try harder to remember, for their “dad’s sake”. This pushes Jo to seek hypnotherapy. Will Jo be able to unearth that buried truth, or will this pain haunt the David family forever?
