Helpful and handsome, Tex has charmed everyone in Summer Bay. But this week, the newcomer reveals who he really is – and it’s big trouble for Tane.
In Home And Away, new couple Tex (Lucas Linehan) and Rose (Kirsty Marillier) are more loved-up than ever.
But after a workout at the gym, Tex slips into the office and starts rifling through papers and equipment, taking a framed photo of Tane (Ethan Browne), Mia (Anna Samson) and Ari (Rob Kipa-Williams). What’s he up to?
Later, we see Tex arrive at an industrial warehouse, where a tough bikie gang greets him – he’s their sergeant-at-arms!
Tex tells them he knows who has the money they’re after – and also that he’s dating the local policewoman.
“Rose is a deeply devoted person, trying to do her best,” Kirsty tells TV WEEK. “But she may face some heartbreak too.”
Tex keeps up his nice-guy façade, but keeps an eye on Chloe (Sam Barrett) and Tane.
When Tane returns to his car, he finds the photo with a note: “Your brother stole our money. We want it back.”
Tane panics – he and Ari took part in an armed robbery, but instead of handing over the stolen cash, used it to buy the gym.
Nikau (Kawakawa Fox-Reo) picks up on his uncle’s distress, but Tane dodges his questions and agrees to meet the bikies that night – alone.
When he does, thugs put a bag over his head and throw him into a van. It looks like the gang is bent on collecting one way or the other!
