Can Elaine help the girls forgive their dad?
Struggling to come to terms with what he has learnt, George goes in search of answers and covers when questioned by Elaine, but his lies are soon rumbled.
When Elaine confronts George, he is forced to reveal all, but the pair are interrupted by an unsuspecting Anna who demands the truth. When George shares the news about Rose, Anna is shocked and is told that she must keep it a secret from Gina, for fear of history repeating itself.
As Elaine and The Knights busily prepare for Lola’s wake, a guilty Anna struggles to keep hush about her mum and attempts to reveal all to Gina. But her sister stops her and insists she doesn’t want to know, unaware of the bombshell that Anna is hiding.
Later, Gina decides she wants to hear the truth about her mum but a worried Anna covers and insists it’s nothing. Sensing her sister’s deception, Gina finally learns the truth from Elaine who believes she deserves to know. Broken, Gina heads to Peggy’s to drink herself into oblivion.
Back at The Vic, George panics when he learns that Gina knows the truth about Rose and later at home, George consoles his two daughters. But things go from bad to worse as he reveals the truth about what happened all those years ago and both Gina and Anna are left heartbroken by their dad’s actions.
Feeling guilty, Elaine is determined to make things right between George and his girls and sets on persuading Gina and Anna to hear him out. But with George burying his head in the sand, Elaine intervenes and implores the girls to forgive their dad.
