Terese’s retirement development, Eirini Rising, is finally open, but it’s not long before the celebrations are tainted by a dramatic departure and a threat from a new enemy.
This week in Neighbours, Paul’s (Stefan Dennis) cousin Hilary Robinson (Anne Scott-Pendlebury) purchases one of the apartments of the complex. Terese (Rebekah Elmaloglou) assumes this has Paul written all over it and he is using the gesture to stay relevant in her life.

“Initially she’s thrilled to have sold another apartment, but when she sees Paul’s name on the agreement, that joy quickly turns to fury,” Rebekah, 50, tells TV WEEK. “Terese is certain this must be some sort of play by Paul to stay in her orbit, and she ends up with egg on her face [when the truth comes out].”
Paul then leaves for New York with the two on turbulent terms – has Terese messed up her last chance with him?
But Paul is the least of her worries when Karl (Alan Fletcher) learns the identity of the poo cyclist who has been tormenting Erinsborough. It turns out he is none other than a close relative of a high roller, Shirley Birchmore (Suzy Cato), who has purchased a share of Eirini Rising.

Karl wants his identity to be publicly revealed at the event, that is, until Shirley threatens that she and her friends will withdraw their lucrative purchases at the complex if that occurs.
“Terese feels a bit torn between her loyalty to Karl and ensuring Eirini Rising doesn’t sink,” Rebekah explains.
Stuck between a rock and a hard place, will Terese choose the success of her passion project she has fought so hard for or clearing the name of one of her closest friends?
