  • Reb refuses to let Sarah phone the police and asks her to help her "get rid" of Kevin. Ann doesn't believe Judy's story and lets her know how disappointed she is in her, though Meg does believe her. Reb puts Kevin's body in the car. Barry calls on Sarah, but she sends him away. Reb leaves with the money. Colleen is about to have another drink but smashes the glass and bursts into tears. Doreen is brought back to Wentworth: Helen and Myra tell her she's crazy to get back inside deliberately. Colleen tells Meg she intends to go back to work. Reb is spotted by detectives at the airport, is chased back to the car park and arrested. Sarah's neighbour lets her know she saw the electrician's van outside and heard the noise. Sarah's documents are found in Reb's pocket: she claims she stole the jacket in a cafe, but the police find the body in the back of the van. Bobbie tries to admit guilt for stealing while on the run, but Minnie takes the blame. Sarah is preparing to leave when her boyfriend Barry calls round. Judy wants Myra to take over as top dog because she can't do the job with her heart problems. The police question Sarah: she is told she will be charged with murder and put on remand and the police will refuse bail. Reb is brought back to Wentworth. Meg warns her the trouble she's caused may have made her very unpopular with the other women. Dr Weissman tells Ann she is impressed with Sonia's progress and asks Ann to arrange for him to see Eddie. Joan tells Reb she will make her pay for the Major's stroke, as she's the only one of the three still left alive. Doreen starts a book as she hears Rick approaching the laundry in the hope of getting a longer sentence, but Joan takes his place so Doreen brings the press down to hide the money. Minnie is transferred to B block: Cass blames Bobbie. Sarah is brought to Wentworth. Eddie comes to visit Sonia and seems to want to help her. Minnie says goodbye to Bobbie and Cass. Bobbie tells Cass she'd like them to be friends again. Reb hears Sarah being brought to solitary and shouts to her, but Sarah says she doesn't want anything to do with her. Doreen arranges for Rick to find gambling money in her laundry skip, but he asks Meg's advice who says she thinks Doreen is doing it deliberately, so he decides not to charge her. Eddie admits phoning Rick about the car bomb, and meets Rick at home later to tell Rick that Lionel Fellowes wants Rick dead and has asked him to do it.
