Martha decides to have her breast remove entirely. Roman finds Nicole and Elliot together in the city.

Nicole and Elliot

Roman and Charlie call everyone trying to find out where Nicole could be. Roman considers everyone and wonders about Elliot.

The next day, they go to Elliot's house in the city and sure enoug, Nicole is there!

Nicole says Elliot has been a complete gentleman letting her stay with him and nothing's going on.

Nicole and Elliot talk alone to decide what she should do, and the pair kiss before she packs her bags... and Elliot has decided to move to Summer Bay!

Roman tells Nicole it was frightening not knowing where she was. Roman promises not to pack her up next time things get bad and gets Nicole to promise not to run away again.

Nicole asks if she can move into Morag's room with Elliot. Roman says no.

Martha

Alf, Ric and Tony wish Martha all the best for her operation.

In hospital, Martha tells Jack she's decided not to have the lump removed, but have the entire breast removed as it's the best chance to stop the cancer. Jack is surprised that she hasn't discussed it with him and worried for her.

Her surgery is rescheduled until tomorrow.

Martha apologises to Jack for making the decision without him. Jack says it's ok and he loves her and will be there for her when she comes out of surgery.

Ric and Matilda

Belle sends some photos of the wedding through to Matilda. She looks at them when Nathan is in her room, and he remembers to tell her about the call from Ric the other day. He's apologetic. Matilda says goodnight to Nathan and worries about Ric.

The next day, Nathan and Matilda talk about her breakup with Ric. He invites her to come along to listen to his friend's band at Uni.

Later, Ric calls Matilda and asks if she's seeing someone - Matilda says of course not and she misses him. Ric says he misses her too.
