Where will this leave Terese?
FOR WEEK COMMENCING 5 AUGUST
When Terese notes Melanie’s uncomfortable around them, Toadie is worried. But he's relieved when Terese assumes it’s due to their upcoming anniversary party. To protect Toadie's confidence, Melanie seemingly puts the fire out by uneasily going along with it.
Confiding in Susan, Terese tells her she's considering changing her surname to Rebecchi, while concerned Karl urges Toadie to speak to someone about his troubles.
When Terese broaches the change of name with Toadie, he covers his unease with feigned enthusiasm. Seeing through it, Karl urges him again to seek help.
At his wit’s end, Toadie places a call asking Rhonda for an appointment, but he doesn’t want Terese involved.
As Toadie and Terese continue to plan their wedding anniversary party and the prospect of Terese changing her surname to Rebecchi, it’s apparent Toadie is growing increasingly uneasy.
Unbeknownst to Terese, Toadie has started counselling sessions with Rhonda Del Rubio. He confides in her about his recent inner turmoil and reminders of his past loves, and confesses that he feels like he’s drowning.
Meanwhile, JJ offers to take Nell to visit her mother's former nursery and she's shaken to find the place run down and abandoned. Overcome with anger and upset, Nell takes in the wasteland.
Returning home, Nell reveals what she’s found to Toadie and both she and Terese are shocked to discover Toadie has known for an while that the nursery is in disrepair.
Toadie reveals they’ve been struggling to find a new tenant and the agent wants him to lease the space as something other than a nursery, but he can’t. Hurt that Toadie felt like he couldn’t talk to her about this, Terese struggles to get her head around it, despite Toadie's reasoning.
Later, Terese confides in Susan, expressing her concerns, and a supportive Susan understands that anything to do with Sonya would be a sensitive subject, but offers to help with the clean-up of the nursery if they would like it.
But both Karl and Susan are concerned about being in the middle of this growing tension between Toadie and Terese.
