This week in Home and Away, Mia (Anna Samson) is struggling to get through to Chloe (Sam Barrett) as guilt consumes her in the aftermath of Ari’s (Rob Kipa-Williams) arrest.
Turning to desperate measures, she takes her daughter’s diary and browses through it – only to be horrified by its contents.

Elsewhere, Neve’s (Sophie Bloom) condition becomes increasingly apparent, and Mackenzie (Emily Weir) begins to wonder if moving Logan’s (Harley Bonner) ex in was a good idea. When Logan and Neve are out walking along the beach, Neve becomes convinced Bella (Courtney Miller) is taking photos of her and lunges at her. Bella tells Mackenzie she needs to be careful – Neve is volatile…
