“Neighbours” posted a sneak peek of Friday’s episode on its Facebook page. In the clip, Nurse Eve says she’s looking forward to tell the coroner exactly what happened with Regan. David argues that Karl acted in the best interest of the patient, but Eve reminds him that Karl is not a surgeon. When David insists that Karl did the right thing, she tells him that he’s still new. Eve also gives him a piece of advice. “Take your time considering who you want in your corner,” she warns. “In a place like this, if you make the wrong choice, it can make life and work very uncomfortable.”

Digital Spy reports that Karl worries about losing his medical license because of Eve. David steps in to help when he discovers that Eve’s friend – a woman from Karl’s past – may save Karl from his professional crisis.

Another clip shows Paige keeping Piper in the loop about Tyler’s latest snag. “Tim Collins brought in his car to be repaired. Tyler took it for a joyride and crashed it,” Paige recounts. When Piper wonders when it happened, Paige says Tyler did it right after the Halloween Dance. Seeing her sister’s reaction, Paige presses her to tell what she knows. “I might have done something that might have upset him,” Piper replies. “I slept with Angus. And Tyler knows.”

Digital Spy spoilers hint that a Mark gets absolutely livid over Tyler’s rash action. To appease his brother, Tyler offers to sell Mark his share of the house to raise the money needed for the car repairs. Tyler’s issue is the last thing that Mark needs – he already has his hands full dealing with his relationship problems. Speaking of problems, Lauren also faces one as her mum Kathy comes to town.

“Neighbours” recap

On Thursday, Jack went to confession as he continues to struggle with inappropriate thoughts about Paige. He added that he’s now facing another problem, this time with a woman from his childhood. He shared about the tension between Paige and Simone and said that he feels so lost about how to handle it.

At Harold’s, Simone bought some food and Paige couldn’t help but accuse her of putting Jack under emotional blackmail. Simone, however, refused to back down and said she won’t be losing Jack. Later, Paige learned that the toolshed where Simone’s staying is going to be torn down, and she wasted no time going there to tell Jack’s ex about it. At the shed, Simone was nowhere to be found. Paige spotted her bag and snooped around, finding a few bottles of medication and a notebook filled with dark and hateful messages. Simone caught her, kicked her out and even threw a wrench on her. Thankfully, Paige was able to dodge it.

Paige rushed to search Jack and found him at the hospital. She shared about what happened, even the violent attack, and reckoned that Simone needed medical help. Jack disagreed, saying that he can help Simone. Later, Jack grilled Tyler about Simone and Ben urged him to tell the truth. Tyler admitted that he crashed Tim Collins’ car and let Simone take the blame. Jack ordered him to talk to Mark about it. Tyler first went to Paige to come clean, then later, went to the police station to turn himself in.

Meanwhile, Jack confronted Simone about the car crash and Paige’s discovery. Simone lied, saying that Tyler forced her to take the blame. Jack saw through her lies and she’s forced to come clean. Just as Paige feared, Simone managed to manipulate Jack again. Later, Simone rubbed it to Paige’s face about her achievement. Simone made Paige realise that Jack is a sucker for damsels in distress, which is why the only time he got tempted was when she got into the hot air balloon accident.

Elly showed Susan a secret admirer’s love letter, but said she doesn’t know who wrote it. Susan grew suspicious that it was from Angus, but Elly insisted there’s nothing going on between them. Later, Elly tried to change Angus’ mind of quitting school. She reiterated that she’s not interested in him, and that he should respect that. Angus then said going away may be the best thing for both of them. Elly talked again to Angus and managed to get through to him. Angus then informed Susan that he’s going to enroll in a college that specialises in music, much to her delight.
